CA 2169422

A method and an apparatus for reducing the noise in a speech signal capable of suppressing the noise in the input signal and simplifying the processing. The apparatus includes a fast Fourier transform unit 3 for transforming the input speech signal into a frequency-domain signal, and an Hn value calculation unit 7 for controlling filter characteristics for filtering employed for removing the noise from the input speech signal. The apparatus also includes a spectrum correction unit 10 for reducing the input speech signal by the filtering conforming to the filter characteristics produced by the Hn value calculation unit 7. The Hn value calculation unit 7 calculates the Hn value responsive to a value derived from the frame-based maximum SN ratio of the input signal spectrum obtained by the fast Fourier transform unit 3 and an estimated noise level and controls the processing for removing the noise in the spectrum correction unit 10 responsive to the Hn value.
