Embodiment Construction

[0049] With reference to accompanying drawing, further illustrate the present invention:

[0050] The binary microphone microarray speech beamforming method comprises the following steps:

[0051] 1. Build a microphone microarray to receive external analog signals. A microarray is composed of two omnidirectional microphones; convert the received analog signal into a digital signal to be processed;

[0052] 2. Analyze the digital signal to obtain the relative time delay of the target sound source relative to the two microphones; according to the time delay, perform time delay correction on the digital signals corresponding to the two microphones to obtain the corrected signal; The corrected signal completes the fixed beamforming;

[0053] 3. According to the two corrected signals, use the blocking matrix to obtain the noise reference signal;

[0054] 4. Through the frequency domain adaptive processing algorithm, the fixed wave velocity is converted into a preliminary gain sig...

Abstract

The invention discloses a binary microphone microarray voice beam forming method, which comprises the following steps of: constructing a microphone microarray so as to receive external signals; analyzing the signals to obtain relative time delay of a target sound source relative to two microphones; respectively carrying out time delay correction on digital signals corresponding to the two microphones according to the time delay to obtain corrected signals; completing fixed beam forming according to the two corrected signals; obtaining a noise reference signal by using a block matrix according to the two corrected signals; by using a frequency domain self-adaption processing algorithm, converting the fixed beam forming into a primary gain signal and converting the noise reference signal into an estimated noise reference signal; and removing noise energy out of the primary gain signal to obtain a final beam forming signal. The invention has the advantages of good generality, low dependence on hardware, no requirement on angles of the target sound source and a noise source, application to a moving environment, a mixed-sound environment and a nonstationary noise environment and good denoising effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of voice enhancement, in particular, the invention relates to a microphone microarray target voice beamforming method for the mobile phone field. Background technique [0002] At present, mobile phones have become an essential communication device in our daily life, so the quality of calls has become an issue of increasing concern, especially in a noisy environment, which will seriously affect the communication between the two parties. In order to solve this problem, voice noise reduction Technology came into being. [0003] In order to suppress noise, a single-channel noise reduction method and a microphone array beamforming noise suppression method have emerged. For single-channel noise, techniques such as spectral subtraction and Wiener filtering are commonly used. The disadvantages of these methods are that the suppression effect on non-stationary noise is poor, and it will cause large speech distortion...
