Low data transmission rate and intelligible speech communication
First Claim
1. A method of processing speech representative of ideograms for speech communication using an asynchronous communication channel, said method including the step of:
- processing speech units of a speech and data indicative of said speech units, wherein each speech unit is representative of an ideogram or a plurality of semantically related ideograms and said data indicative of said speech units is discretely communicable on said asynchronous communication channel for providing substantially low data transmission rate and intelligible speech communication.

Abstract
A method of processing speech representative of ideograms for speech communication using an asynchronous communication channel (21) is disclosed. The method includes the step of processing speech units of a speech and data indicative of the speech units. Each speech unit is representative of an ideogram or a plurality of semantically related ideograms (500-508). The data indicative of the speech units is discretely communicable on the asynchronous communication channel (21). By communicating the data indicative of the speech units, a substantially low data transmission rate and intelligible speech communication is achieved.

10. A method of processing speech representative of ideograms for speech communication using an asynchronous communication channel, said method including the steps of:
-
processing meaning groups of a speech and data representing said meaning groups, wherein each meaning group is formed from at least one ideogram identifiable by a meaning and said data representing said meaning group is discretely communicable on said asynchronous communication channel; and
processing data dependent on the speech pattern of said speech in relation to one of both of the time and frequency domains, said dependent data communicable on said asynchronous communication channel whereby substantially low data transmission rate and intelligible speech communication is provided. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
