The NRS uses a noise reconstruction filter (NRF) estimating the background noise. In case a fixed step size for updating tap coefficients of the NRF is used, it is difficult to estimate the background noise accurately while maintaining the high quality of enhanced speech. In order to improve the estimation accuracy of noise, a variable step size is introduced to the NRF. In a speech section, the variable step size decreases so as to become no sensitivity for speech, on the other hand, increases to track the background noise in a non-speech section. From simulation results, we have verified that the proposed system can reduce the actual noise while maintaining the high quality of enhanced speech.Asia-Pacific Signal and Information Processing Association, 2009 Annual Summit and Conference, International Organizing CommitteeConference Paperapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/2115/39750https://eprints.lib.hokudai.ac.jp/dspace/bitstream/2115/39750/1/TP-SS1-1.pdfProceedings : APSIPA ASC 2009 : Asia-Pacific Signal and Information Processing Association, 2009 Annual Summit and Conference4774842009-10-04engpublisher
