A variable voice compression device and method in a voice messaging system is provided. The device includes a call related information/coding table or database which contains associations between call related information regarding desired calling parties, and selected coding techniques and effective data rates resulting in varying voice compression ratios. Upon receipt of an incoming call, call related information sent from the central office is compared to entries in the call related information/coding table or database. If a match is found, the subsequent voice message is encoded with a coding technique and effective data rate determined from the matching entry in the call related information/coding table or database. Otherwise, the voice message is encoded with a default coding technique and effective data rate.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION In accordance with the principles of the present invention, a variable voice compression ratio device in a voice messaging device comprises a processor, a call related information detector/receiver, and a call related information/coding database to associate pre-set call related information with one of a plurality of voice compression ratios.
The processor compares incoming call related information to the pre-set call related information to determine the desired voice compression ratio for storage of a voice message corresponding to the incoming call.
In another aspect of the invention, a variable voice compression ratio device comprises a memory containing a plurality of voice compression ratio values each associated with respective call related information.
A call related information receiver receives incoming call related information, and a processor compares the received call related information with the respective call related information contained in the memory to identify one of the plurality of voice compression ratio values.
A method of setting an effective data rate for storage of a voice message for an incoming call in accordance with the present invention provides detection and reception of call related information relating to the incoming call.
The detected and received call related information is compared with a memory containing pre-set call related information associated with respective effective data rates.
An effective data rate is then set for storage of the voice message of the incoming call based on the comparison.
