To this end, a voice detection device includes a band-based power calculation unit that calculates a total of signal power values (sub-band power) of signals entered from the microphones from one preset frequency width (sub-band) to another. The voice detection device also includes a band-based noise estimation unit that estimates the sub-band based noise power, and a sub-band based SNR calculation unit. The sub-band based SNR calculation unit calculates a sub-band SNR from one sub-band to another to output the largest one of the sub-band SNRs as an SNR for a microphone of interest. The voice detection device further includes a voice/non-voice decision unit that determines the voice/non-voice using the SNR for the microphone of interest.
