    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and system for removing acoustic noise from human speech, in which noise is removed irrespective of the type, magnitude or orientation of noise to restore a signal after the removal.SOLUTION: A system includes a microphone and a sensor connected to a processor. The microphone receives acoustic signals and a VAD supplies a signal of a binary 1 when speech (both voiced and unvoiced) is occurring and of a binary 0 in the absence of speech. The processor includes a denoising algorithm, and it generates transfer functions. The transfer functions include a transfer function generated in response to a determination that voicing information is not present in the acoustic signal received during a specified time period. Also, the transfer functions include a transfer function generated in response to a determination that voicing information is present in the acoustic signal during a specified time period. At least one denoised acoustic data stream is generated using the transfer functions.

    Abstract: A voice activity detector (VAD) combines the use of an acoustic VAD and a vibration sensor VAD as appropriate to the conditions a host device is operated. The VAD includes a first detector receiving a first signal and a second detector receiving a second signal. The VAD includes a first VAD component coupled to the first and second detectors. The first VAD component determines that the first signal corresponds to voiced speech when energy resulting from at least one operation on the first signal exceeds a first threshold. The VAD includes a second VAD component coupled to the second detector. The second VAD component determines that the second signal corresponds to voiced speech when a ratio of a second parameter corresponding to the second signal and a first parameter corresponding to the first signal exceeds a second threshold.

    Abstract: Communication systems are described, including both portable handset and headset devices, which use a number of microphone configurations to receive acoustic signals of an environment. The microphone configurations include, for example, a two-microphone array including two unidirectional microphones, and a two-microphone array including one unidirectional microphone and one omnidirectional microphone. The communication systems also include Voice Activity Detection (VAD) devices to provide information of human voicing activity. Components of the communications systems receive the acoustic signals and voice activity signals and, in response, automatically generate control signals from data of the voice activity signals. Components of the communication systems use the control signals to automatically select a denoising method appropriate to data of frequency subbands of the acoustic signals. The selected denoising method is applied to the acoustic signals to generate denoised acoustic signals when the acoustic signal includes speech and noise.

    Abstract: A method and system are provided for acoustic noise removal from human speech, wherein noise is removed without respect to noise type, amplitude, or orientation. The system includes microphones and a voice activity detection (VAD) data stream coupled among a processor. The microphones receive acoustic signals and the VAD produces a signal including a binary one when speech (voiced and unvoiced) is occurring and a binary zero in the absence of speech. The processor includes denoising algorithms that generate transfer functions. The transfer functions include a transfer functions generated in response to a determination that voicing information is absent from the received acoustic signal during a specified time period. The transfer functions also include transfer functions generated in response to a determination that voicing information is present in the acoustic signal during a specified time period. At least one denoised acoustic data stream is generated using the transfer functions.
