SYSTEM FOR SPEECH SIGNAL ENHANCEMENT IN A NOISY ENVIRONMENT THROUGH CORRECTIVE ADJUSTMENT OF SPECTRAL NOISE POWER DENSITY ESTIMATIONS

摘要

A system estimates the spectral noise power density of an audio signal includes a spectral noise power density estimation unit, a correction term processor, and a combination processor. The spectral noise power density estimation unit may provide a first estimate of the spectral noise power density of the audio signal. The correction term processor may provide a time dependent correction term based, at least in part, on a spectral noise power density estimation error of the actual spectral noise power density. The correction term may be determined so that the spectral noise power density estimation error is reduced. The combination processor may combine the first estimate with the correction term to obtain a second estimate of the spectral noise power density that may be used for subsequent signal processing to enhance a desired signal component of the audio signal.
