Representations of the long-term spectra of speech.
Numerous and somewhat different representations of the long-term spectra of speech are available in the literature. Various estimates of speech spectra have been converted to a consistent audiogram format for presentation here. Even so, plots of speech spectral levels across the frequency region of 125 to 8000 Hz vary considerably. Bases for some of these variations and clinical utilization of a speech spectrum are discussed.
