Abstract

This paper compares the intelligibility of speech processed using non-overlapping versus overlapping Bark-scaled channel vocoder filterbanks. Non-overlapping broader bandwidth filterbanks produce spectral artefacts that are mostly absent in speech processed with equivalent overlapping filterbanks. The use of overlapping filterbanks is shown to significantly increase the intelligibility of vowel tokens for filterbank bandwidths greater than 1 Bark.
