"radio" waves? Seems like nonsense. Radio is inaudible. "Sound waves" is plausible. Bernardo de La Paz Sep 2016 #1

Those are audio waveforms, not radio waves. Dr Hobbitstein Sep 2016 #2

Looking at it, it appears that the smaller segments are the sniffs. That's what a breath looks like on a vocal track. The larger, spikier segments are the actual speech.
