From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
In telecommunication, transcoding is the direct digital-to-digital conversion from one encoding scheme, such as voice LPC-10, to a different encoding scheme without returning the signals to analog form.
Note: The transcoded signals, i.e., the digital representations of analog signals may be any digital representation of any analog signal, such as voice, facsimile, or quasi-analog signals.
