Abstract
A decoder improves delayed packet concealment in a packet network by using two decoder sections. A first decoder section bases its decoding during the concealment phase on erroneous filter states and a set of speech parameters, whereas a second decoder section bases its decoding on saved and updated filter states and the same speech parameters. The outputs of the two decoder sections are thereafter combined to form the final speech signal. This decoding strategy produces a speech signal with smooth transitions from delayed to non-delayed packets and uses information from the most recent packets for speech generation.
