Abstract

A method for processing a speech signal includes dividing the speech signal into a succession of frames, identifying one or more of the frames as click frames, and extracting phase information from the click frames. The speech signal is encoded using the phase information. Methods are also provided for modeling phase spectra of voiced frames and click frames.
