Optimal Time-Domain Noise Reduction Filters

A Theoretical Study

by Jacob Benesty, Jingdong Chen ...

Series series Engineering (R0)
Additive noise is ubiquitous in acoustics environments and can affect the intelligibility and quality of speech signals. Therefore, a so-called noise reduction algorithm is required to mitigate the effect of the noise that is picked up by the microphones. This work proposes a general framework in the time domain for the single and multiple microphone cases, from which it is very convenient to ... Read more
