What is HD Voice? Much more than a wideband codec
While talking about HD voice, most people tend to focus on an HD-capable voice codec. Wideband voice processing seems to be the right answer to have life-like communication experience.
But as HD implies sound quality, it’s also important to focus on all other sound – and experience – enhancing technologies: echo and noise cancellation, network issues mitigation, automatic rate selection, etc. In a word, it takes much more than just a wideband codec, to let you enjoy a conversation in HD-quality. Only when multiple sophisticated voice processing technologies work together within a single framework can the sound be HD.
