In the next decade or so, a significant number (perhaps more than 50%) of telephones are expected to become wireless. Another new area of application is multimedia in personal computing where voice storage is becoming a standard feature. With so many applications already emerging or expected to emerge in the next few years, it is not surprising that speech coding has become such an active field of research in recent years. Wideband audio coding for high-fidelity reproduction of voice and music has emerged as an important activity in the past decade.

Z. In 1950 I had to solve the problem of why taperecorded music was accepted differently if recorded and played back by different apparatus. The barely noticeable amplitude and frequency modulation as a function of modulation frequency and level, as characteristics of the final receiver (our auditory system), have led to the solution. Today, after having published more than 200 papers related to the field, I am propagating'the same approach for a solution of the problems in modern electroacoustics and audio engineering, although at a somewhat higher level.
