Assignment I
1. Record a speech waveform for different consonants like /t/, /s/, and /p/ using a .wav
file. Write a MATLAB program to read a wav file and plot it. (Hint: See sample file plots
in the text.)
2. Record a speech waveform for a sentence and take the V/UV decision for a speech

a segment of size 256.)
3. Write a MATLAB program for calculation of ZCR and measure it for .wav files of /a/ and
/h/. (Hint: Use a MATLAB function and calculate ZCR for a speech segment recorded.)
4. Write a MATLAB program for computing log energy for the voiced and unvoiced parts
of an utterance and compare the results. (Hint: Open the utterance file. Track the
voiced and unvoiced segments by observing the plot of signal. Find energy of each
segment and find its log. You will observe that log energy will be high for voiced
segment.)
