In 1950, [[Bell Labs]] filed the patent on [[differential pulse-code modulation]] (DPCM).<ref name="DPCM">{{US patent reference|inventor=C.

[[Perceptual coding]] was first used for [[speech coding]] compression, with [[linear predictive coding]] (LPC).<ref name="Schroeder2014">{{cite book |last1=Schroeder |first=Manfred R. |title=Acoustics, Information, and Communication: Memorial Volume in Honor of Manfred R.

Atal]] and [[Manfred R. Schroeder]] at [[Bell Labs]] developed a form of LPC called [[adaptive predictive coding]] (APC), a perceptual coding algorithm that exploited the masking properties of the human ear, followed in the early 1980s with the [[code-excited linear prediction]] (CELP) algorithm which achieved a significant compression ratio for its time.<ref name="Schroeder2014"/> Perceptual coding is used by modern audio compression formats such as [[MP3]]<ref name="Schroeder2014"/> and [[Advanced Audio Codec|AAC]].
