ABSTRACT:
A mobile radio set includes a speech processing device for processing digital samples (x(i)) of speech signals which have noise components as well as speech components. Such device includes a control unit for continuously forming estimates of the signal-to-noise ratio of the speech signals by determining and smoothing the power values of the samples thereof, and determining the minimum of each successive group of L smoothed power values. The groups uninterruptedly succeed each other and each contains a sufficient number of smoothed power values so that all the values of a single group associated with a random phoneme of the speech signal can be combined. An estimate of the present signal-to-noise ratio is formed based on the present smoothed power value and the most recently determined minimum successive smoothed power value.
