A voice enhancement system is provided for improving the perceptual quality of a processed voice signal. The system improves the perceptual quality of a received voice signal by removing unwanted noise from a voice signal recorded by a microphone or from some other source. Specifically, the system removes sounds that occur within the environment of the signal source but which are unrelated to speech. The system is especially well adapted for removing transient road noises from speech signals recorded in moving vehicles. Transient road noises include common temporal and spectral characteristics that can be modeled. A transient road noise detector employs such models to detect the presence of transient road noises in a voice signal. If transient road noises are found to be present, a transient road noise attenuator is provided to remove them from the signal.
