Patent

CA 2304012

The invention concerns a method whereby the digital speech signal (s) processed by successive frames is subjected to noise suppression taking into account noise estimations included in the signal, updated for each frame based on at least one degree of speech activity (.gamma.¿n,i?). The method consists in carrying out an a priori noise suppression of each frame speech signal on the basis of the noise estimations obtained while processing at least one previous frame, and analysing the energy variations of the signal which has been subjected to an a priori noise suppression to detect the degree of speech activity of said frame.

Le signal de parole numérique (s) traité par trames successives est soumis à un débruitage en tenant compte d'estimations du bruit compris dans le signal, mises à jour pour chaque trame d'une manière dépendante d'au moins un degré d'activité vocale (.gamma.n,i). On procède à un débruitage a priori du signal de parole de chaque trame sur la base d'estimations du bruit obtenues lors du traitement d'au moins une trame précédente, et on analyse les variations d'énergie du signal débruité a priori pour détecter le degré d'activité vocale de ladite trame.
