Multi microphone Signal Processing Technique to Remove Room Reverberation with Unbiased Coherent-To-Diffuse Power Ratio Estimation
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 11
Abstract
In everyday humans encounter different types of speech communication applications, such as hands-free mobile telephony, voice-controlled systems, hearing aids etc, the recorded microphone signals are corrupted by background noise, room reverberation and far-end echo signals. The signal degradation can lead to total unintelligibility of the original speech signal and degrades the performance of automatic speech recognition systems. In this project the estimation of frequency and time-dependent coherent-to-diffuse power ratio (CDR) from the measured spatial coherence between two omni directional microphones were investigated. From traditional methods for unbiased CDR estimators it is shown that knowledge of either direction of arrival (DOA) of the target source or the coherence of noise field is sufficient for unbiased CDR estimation. A CDR-based dereverberation system is presented and evaluated using signal-based quality measures as well as automatic speech recognition accuracy.
