ITU G.711

ITU-T recommendation G.711 is a standard for audio companding using pulse code modulation (PCM). It uses a 8kHz sampling rate. Two main compression algorithms are defined, μ-law and A-law. The μ-law algorithm is used in North America and Japan and tends to give more resolution to higher range signals. The A-law algorithm is used in Europe and the rest of the world and provides more quantization levels at lower signal levels.
