(Main)Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) - Common Interface (CI) - Part 8: Speech and audio coding and transmission
General Information
- Abstract
The present document is one of the parts of the specification of the Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications
(DECT) Common Interface (CI).
This part of the DECT CI specifies the speech and audio coding and transmission requirements.
In order to ensure satisfactory interworking of different portable and fixed units, it is necessary to specify the
transmission performance of the analog information over the digital link. This requires not only use of a common
speech algorithm, but also standardization of frequency responses, reference speech levels (or loudness) at the air
interface and various other parameters.
The present document applies to DECT equipment which includes all the necessary functions to provide real-time
two-way speech conversation and stereo audio transmission. Several speech services are defined in the present
document, including conventional 3,1 kHz telephony, wideband 7 kHz voice transmission, super-wideband 14 kHz and
fullband 20 kHz service. DECT Fixed part providing such services may be connected to the public circuit switched
(PSTN/ISDN) network, to private networks or to the Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) network.
Tethered fixed point local loop applications are not required to comply with the requirements of the present document.
For the DECT systems which connect to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) via an analog interface, the
additional requirements, which are implemented in the FP, have as much as possible been aligned with ETSI
TBR 038 [29].
A summary of the control and the use of the DECT echo control functions, to guide on need for options to
manufacturers and installers, is found in annex A.
Information concerning test methods can be found in ETSI EN 300 176-1 [9] and ETSI EN 300 176-2 [10] (previously
covered by ETSI TBR 010 [i.5]). The test methods take into account that DECT is a digital system.
The present document includes New Generation DECT, a further development of the DECT standard introducing
wideband speech, improved data services, new slot types and other technical enhancements.
In addition, the present document includes DECT Evolution, providing SWB and FB speech and audio capabilities and
a new speech coding algorithm for NB and WB allowing to increase the audio quality of the NB and WB speech service
and improve bandwidth efficiency.
The latest update for DECT Evolution includes the support of ultra-band, high resolution, low-latency speech and audio
coding, and additional PP types supported with LC3plus coding. An application profile using these new PP types can be
found in ETSI TS 103 706 [i.28].

ETSI EN 300 175-8 V2.9.1 (2022-03) - Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT); Common Interface (CI); Part 8: Speech and audio coding and transmission
Overview
SIST EN 300 175-8 V2.9.1:2022 focuses on the Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) - Common Interface (CI) - Part 8: Speech and Audio Coding and Transmission. Published by SIST, this standard specifies the requirements for speech and audio coding, as well as transmission, within DECT systems. The document forms a key component in ensuring interoperability, quality, and performance of speech and audio services among various DECT portable and fixed units.
This part outlines the necessary parameters for transmission performance of analog information across a digital DECT link. It ensures that all DECT equipment supporting real-time two-way speech conversation and stereo audio transmission adheres to specified criteria for successful operation in professional and consumer environments.
Key Topics
Speech and Audio Codec Standardization: The standard prescribes various codecs and algorithms to guarantee consistent speech and audio quality. It addresses conventional narrowband telephony (3.1 kHz), wideband (7 kHz), super-wideband (14 kHz), and fullband (20 kHz) services, ensuring devices can support a wide range of quality levels.
Transmission and Frequency Response Requirements: SIST EN 300 175-8 sets the frequency response and reference loudness levels at the DECT air interface. This standardization is crucial for cross-device compatibility and maintaining high audio performance.
Interworking with Networks: The standard supports DECT systems that connect to public switched telephone networks (PSTN/ISDN), private networks, and Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) networks, ensuring adaptable deployment scenarios.
Audio Types and Device Profiles: It defines various device profiles for portable parts (PP) such as handsets, headsets, and handsfree units, as well as fixed parts (FP) with multiple network interfaces. The standard covers enhanced audio device types, including those supporting advanced low-latency or ultra-band (high resolution) codecs.
DECT Evolution and New Generation DECT: The document incorporates new technical enhancements such as wideband, super-wideband, and fullband audio, improved data services, additional slot types, and advanced speech coding algorithms.
Best Practices and Echo Control: Annexes provide guidance for manufacturers and installers on implementing and controlling DECT echo management functions.
Applications
SIST EN 300 175-8 is applicable to:
DECT Handsets, Headsets, and Base Stations: Manufacturers designing equipment for residential, business, or industrial applications benefit from consistent audio quality and robust interoperability.
Voice Communication Systems: Ensures that DECT-based systems, whether standalone or integrated with PSTN, ISDN, or VoIP networks, provide high-quality two-way speech and stereo audio.
Advanced Audio Devices: Supports development of devices requiring wideband, super-wideband, fullband, or ultra-band audio for use in conferencing, telemedicine, broadcast, or handsfree communication.
Cross-Network Interconnectivity: Facilitates the reliable operation of DECT devices across diverse digital and analog infrastructures, supporting both legacy and modern telecommunication environments.
