  The U.S. DoD's Federal-Standard-1015/NATO-STANAG-4198 based 2400 bps linear prediction coder (LPC-10) was republished as a Federal Information Processing Standards Publication 137 (FIPS Pub 137). It is described in:
  • Thomas E. Tremain, "The Government Standard Linear Predictive Coding Algorithm: LPC-10," Speech Technology Magazine, April 1982, p. 40-49.
  There is also a section about FS-1015 in the book:
  • Panos E. Papamichalis, Practical Approaches to Speech Coding, Prentice-Hall, 1987.
  The voicing classifier used in the enhanced LPC-10 (LPC-10e) is described in:
