sofm_mu_law_decode()

(

)

sofm_mu_law_decode() - Decode mu-law encoded code word

Parameters

byte	Encoded code word

The mu-law decoder expands a 8 bit code word into a 14 bit sample value. In the SOF the high 14 bits are aligned to the most significant bits to be compatible with normal s16 Q1.15 samples.

Returns

: Sample value in s16 format

sofm_mu_law_encode()

uint8_t sofm_mu_law_encode

(

int16_t

sample

)

sofm_mu_law_encode() - Encode sample with mu-law coding

Parameters

sample

A s16 sample value

The mu-law codec is defined in ITU-T G.711 standard and has been used in telecommunications in USA and Japan. The mu-law coding compresses 14 bit samples to 8 bit data stream. In SOF the high 14 bits of s16 format are used for compatibility with normal audios.

Returns

: Compressed 8 bit code value
