As a basic research to realize Korean speech recognition system, phoneme recognition was carried out to find out ; 1) the best place which represents each phoneme's characteristics, and 2) the reasonable length of duration for obtaining the best recognition rates. For the recognition experiments, multi-speaker dependent recognition with Bayesian decision rule using 21 order of cepstral coefficient as a feature parameter was adopted. It turned out that the best place of feature extraction for the highest recognition rates were 10~50ms in vowels, 40~100ms in fricatives and affricates, 10~50ms in nasals and liquids, and 10~50ms in plosives. And about 70ms of duration was good enough for the recognition of all 35 phonemes.
