DSP Group and Alango Announce Availability of the Extended Voice Communication Package on the DBMD7 Processor
July 01 2021 - 7:00AM
DSP Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: DSPG), a leading global
provider of wireless and voice-processing chipset solutions for
converged communications, and Alango Technologies, a leading
developer and licensor of front-end voice enhancement technologies,
today announced the availability of Alango’s Extended Voice
Communication Package (eVCP) on DSP Group’s DBMD7 SmartVoice
processor. The combination allows providers of high-performance
voice conferencing systems to quickly develop solutions for a
rapidly evolving unified communications market that demands the
best in voice clarity and system flexibility.
Alango’s eVCP was developed to enable hands-free
voice communication in distributed-microphone and multi-zone voice
communication systems. Typical applications include automotive
cabins and conference room systems, where preservation of a single
voice, or of all voices, may be desired at different times. For
each transmit line, eVCP applies echo cancellation, optional dual
or multi-microphone beamforming, noise reduction, equalization, and
gain/signal level adjustment. The signals are combined in eVCP’s
intelligent mixer block based on the respective background noise,
signal quality, and voice activity in multiple frequency bands of
each signal—resulting in a clean, noise-free, echo-free signal with
the desired voices enhanced.
The DBMD7 processor is part of DSP Group’s
SmartVoice family of audio and voice signal processing and edge AI
solutions for applications ranging from conferencing systems to
low-power edge devices. Features of the SmartVoice processors
include scalability, low power, cost effectiveness, and the ability
to enable best-in-class voice-call performance in power-sensitive
applications. The DBMD7 is a high performance full-feature
conferencing solution that supports up to eight microphones.
“Alango’s technologies allow our customers to leverage the full
potential of the DBMD7 to bring high-end voice communication
capabilities to speakerphones and other multi-zone voice
communication systems—and get those products to market quickly,”
said Ran Klier, Chief Product Officer at DSP Group. “This is
especially important in today’s market where end users have high
performance expectations for intelligibility across all their voice
and unified communications tools.”
“High-quality voice processing is a requirement
in the fast-growing communications markets, particularly in very
noisy environments,” said Dr. Alexander Goldin, CEO of Alango
Technologies. “Alango pre-processing technologies improve the
clarity and quality of voice transmission. eVCP running on the
DBMD7 is a computationally efficient solution for our customers.
With support for 2, 4, and 8-microphone designs, large on-chip
memory, efficient CEVA X2 DSP, low power consumption and high clock
rate, the chip allows us to cover a wide range of applications and
microphone configurations. The support and technical resources DSPG
brings to project engagements is outstanding.”
