Opis

Noise Reduction in Speech Applications provides a comprehensive introd uction to modern techniques for removing or reducing background noise from a range of speech-related applications. Self-contained, it starts with a tutorial-style chapter of background material, then focuses on system aspects, digital algorithms, and implementation. The final sec tion explores a variety of applications and demonstrates to potential users of the technology the results possible with the noise reduction techniques presented. The book offers chapters contributed by internat ional experts, a practical, systems approach, and numerous references. For electrical, acoustics, signal processing, communications, and bio engineers, Noise Reduction in Speech Applications is a valuable resour ce that shows you how to decide whether noise reduction will solve pro blems in your own systems and how to make the best use of the technolo gies available.
