Proposal Draft: New Voice Codecs for Amateur Radio
http://technocrat.net/ d/ 2008/ 5/ 14/ 41380
Two years ago, techocrat user Wowbagger wrote D*STAR, Is Anyone Else Worried? That article focused on the fact that the trade-secret, patented, copyrighted nature of the AMBE voice codec used in the D*STAR digital voice radios sold by ICOM doesn't really fit the spirit of Amateur Radio. Last year, I included discussion of that in my keynote at the TAPR/ARRL Digital Communications Conference. The president of AMSAT asked me to repeat the discussion at their conference in November, and to keep working on the problem. Here's my first proposal draft for doing something about it. Please comment.
