APPARATUS FOR AUDIO SIGNAL PROCESSING

摘要

A method for estimating background noise of an audio signal comprises detecting voice activity in one or more frames of the audio signal based on one or more first conditions. The method also comprises estimating a first background noise estimation if voice activity is not detected based on the one or more first conditions. Voice activity in the one or more frames of the audio signal based on one or more second conditions is detected. A second background noise estimation is estimated if voice activity is not detected based on the one or more second conditions. The voice activity is detected in the one or more frames less often based on the one or more first conditions than based on the one or more second conditions.
