VOICE ACTIVITY DETECTION (VAD) DEVICES AND METHODS FOR USE WITH NOISE SUPPRESSION SYSTEMS

摘要

Voice Activity Detection (VAD) devices, systems and methods are described for use with signal processing systems to denoise acoustic signals. Components of a signal processing system and/or VAD system receive acoustic signals and voice activity signals. Control signals are automatically generated from data of the voice activity signals. Components of the signal processing system and/or VAD system use the control signals to automatically select a denoising method appropriate to data of frequency subbands of the acoustic signals. The selected denoising method is applied to the acoustic signals to generate denoised acoustic signals.
