A statistical model based post-filtering algorithm for residual echo suppression
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a novel residual echo suppression (RES) algorithm constructed in the acoustic echo canceller. In the proposed approach, we introduce a statistical model to detect the signal components of the output signal and the state of signal is classified into four distinct hypothesis depending on the activity of near-end signal and residual echo. For hypothesis testing, the conventional likelihood ratio test is performed to make an optimal decision. The parameters specified in terms of the power spectral densities can be obtained by updating according to the hypothesis testing results and we can obtain the optimal RES filter by adopting the estimated parameters. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm yields improved performance compared to that of the previous RES technique.

متن کاملLow delay filtering for joint noise reduction and residual echo suppression
In mobile terminals speech quality is often degraded by acoustic echo and noise. Existing approaches to tackle these problems involves separated solutions. However, combined solution have been proposed recently. Low signal delay and reduced computational load are the main arguments in favor of joint noise and echo processing. Most such algorithms operate in the frequency domain. In recent works...
متن کاملResidual echo reduction based on MMSE estimator in acoustic echo canceller
In this paper, a residual echo cancellation method is proposed that uses an estimation of the minimum mean-square error (MMSE) based on a statistical model of a speech signal and an echo signal. After the suppression of the echo signal based on the adaptive filter, residual echo is further reduced by the proposed MMSE estimator and the results are compared with the conventional Wiener filter ba...
متن کاملMulti-microphone residual echo estimation
Post-filters are a powerful extension to improve echo attenuation when combined with the well-known echo canceller. In order to guarantee high quality of the transmitted speech signal the primary purpose of a post-filtering system is to estimate the power spectral density (PSD) of the residual echo at the output of the echo canceller as accurately as possible. In this contribution, we introduce...
متن کاملReal-Time Implementation of an Acoustic Echo Canceller
Acoustic echo cancellation is an essential signal enhancement tool in hands-free communication. Loudspeaker signals are picked up by a microphone and are fed back to the correspondent, resulting in an undesired echo. Nowadays, adaptive filtering techniques are typically employed to suppress this echo. In acoustic applications long filters need to be adapted for sufficient echo suppression. Clas...
