In this paper, we consider the problem of the maximum possible compression of the digital speech stream for its subsequent transmission over a narrow-band communication channel while maintaining speech intelligibility after decompression processes are performed on the receiving side. In contrast to the known methods of sound compression using vocoder principles, it is proposed to use: compression of the speech spectrum by resampling; reduction of the dynamic range of the speech stream; transmission to the communication channel of not samples of the oversampled signal, but only significant real and imaginary components of it; packing 4-bit words with information about the real and imaginary components of the signal into a byte stream; Decompression of the received stream is performed in the reverse sequence.
