Method, Apparatus and Computer Program Product for Providing Low Frequency Expansion of Speech

摘要

An apparatus for providing low frequency expansion of speech includes a nonlinear function element, a band-pass filter element and a level control element. The non-linear function element is configured to receive a signal including at least two harmonic components and to produce a signal including at least one lower frequency harmonic component having a lower frequency than a highest frequency component of the at least two harmonic components responsive to the signal including at least two harmonic components. The band-pass filter element is in communication with the non-linear function element and configured to filter the signal including the at least one lower frequency harmonic component. The level control element is configured to apply a level control to alter the filtered signal based on a feature vector associated with an input speech signal.
