摘要：Mobile phone usage is approximately 3.5 times more than the usage of Personal Computers. Android has the biggestshare among all Smartphone Operating systems like Symbian, Windows etc. because it has very few restrictions for the developersto develop an application. Text to speech synthesis is one application which reads the written text aloud. TTS systems on Androidare available for many languages but not for Punjabi. Our present work is to develop a Punjabi text to speech synthesizer that canproduce an output speech on a mobile device. While porting this TTS system to a resource limited device like mobile phones, somepractical aspects like application size and processing time are considered. The Concatenative Speech Synthesis technique hasbeen used which uses the Phonemes as the smallest single units for concatenation.
