    摘要: The intelligibility of speech signals is improved in the many situations where a voice signal is communicated or stored. Means and methods are disclosed for developing a scheme with high voice signal intelligibility without sacrifice of voice quality. The disclosed method comprises certain steps, including, but not limited to: Learning the noise on near-end side and enhancing the far-end voice as a function of the noise level on the near-end side. The disclosed method and apparatus are especially useful to increase the intelligibility of the cell phone's loudspeaker output. The invention includes the processing of an input speech signal to generate an enhanced intelligent signal. In frequency domain, the FFT spectrum of the speech received from the far-end is modified in accordance with the LPC spectrum of the local background noise to generate an enhanced intelligent signal. In time domain, the speech is modified in accordance with the LPC coefficients of the noise to generate an enhanced intelligent signal.

A communications device, such as a mobile telephone, is configured with an environmental noise compensation, correction, or counterbalanced (correction) signal generator that is connected between at least one microphone and a continuous time quadrant multiplication. Optional discrete time or digital signal processing may be applied. The original output of the at least one microphone and a compensation, correction, or counterbalanced or counter-balancing signal generated by the environmental noise compensation, correction, or counterbalanced signal generator are mixed or otherwise combined together after being received by the antenna to the receiver.

    摘要: A noisy signal is picked up by a microphone, digitized by an Analog to Digital Converter and fed to a processor for analysis and wind noise reduction. Most of noise reduction methods are based on the assumption that the interfering noise is stationary or slowly varying compared with speech. This assumption allows “learning” the characteristics of the noise between speech pauses and, based on a noise estimate, to build different filters that reduce the noise. In the case of wind noise this basic assumption is not valid. Wind noise is highly non-stationary, its power and spectral characteristics vary greatly. Because wind noise is not stationary, regular noise reduction methods cannot be used to reduce wind noise. For reducing wind noise effects in a device, the presence of wind should be detected reliably and then a novel approach presented here must be applied to eliminate the wind noise.

    摘要: VoIP phones according to the present invention include a microphone, which may be internal or external, and allow the user to communicate unobtrusively, check voice mail and conduct other activities in an environment which can be noisy in general and extremely noisy sometimes. Speech recognition functionally may also be used to generate and send touch tone or DTMF tones such as in response to call trees or voice recognition functionality used by airlines, credit card companies, voice mail systems, and other applications. A system and method of audio processing which provides enhanced speech recognition is provided. Audio input is received at the microphone which is processed by adaptive noise cancellation to generate an enhanced audio signal. The operation of the speech recognition engine and the adaptive noise canceller may be advantageously controlled based on Voice Activity Detection (VAD).
