Abstract:

This paper describes how the speech transmission index (STI) has shown to be a valuable tool for the objective assessment the speech intelligibility. From the first presentation in 1971, the method has been refined and diversified for various applications. Recently the International Electrotechnical Commission, IEC, has launched the third revision of the International Standard specifying the method for calculating the index: IEC 60268-16. A brief discussion of STIPA was presented in the Spring of 2004 at DAGA.
