What is MUST?

MUST (Modulation Under Single Threshold) is a speech coding technology. It is a type of waveform codec designed for efficient compression and transmission of speech signals, particularly in noisy environments or under challenging network conditions. MUST aims to minimize the required bandwidth while maintaining acceptable speech quality. It works by encoding the speech signal based on a single threshold, which helps to reduce the amount of data needed to represent the signal. It's commonly used in applications such as voice over IP (VoIP), mobile communication, and audio conferencing, where bandwidth is limited or network conditions are unreliable.
