LPC

LPC is one of the most powerful speech analysis technique and used for encoding good quality speech at low bit rate.
Provides extremelly accurate speech parameters.
Contains formants.removing their effects from the speech signal and estimating the intensity and frequency of the remaiming buzz.
Process of removing the formants is inverse filtering and the remaining signal is the residue.
LPC synthesis the speech signal by reversing the process
Residue->to source signal
formants->to create a filter
Resulting in speech.
