+=============================================================================+ | What Is CELP ??? | | | | CELP is a relatively new digital voice algorithm that permits high quality | | digital voice communications over normal dial-up telephone lines. | | | | CELP was originally developed by AT&T Bell Laboratories Engineers working | | with the National Security Agency (NSA). Today, CELP is covered by | | a Federal Standard, Fed-Std-1016. | | | | CELP stands for "Code Excited Linear Prediction", the technical name | | for the algorithm. | | | | CELP digital voice in your STU-III will provide you with the best quality | | digital voice communications available in any STU-III. | | | | The AT&T STU-III with CELP capability is totally compatible with all other | | STU-IIIs. If a non-CELP STU calls a CELP equiped STU, the secure link | | will still be established using either the AT&T 4800 Voice or the | | Interoperable 2400 Voice algorithm. | +=============================================================================+
