Problems solved by technology

[0004] Existing sound collection equipment is easy to collect wind noise outdoors. Users generally use a windshield to cover the Mic to reduce the impact of wind noise. However, for small video cameras (DV) or recording pens and other equipment, the Mic is generally not protected by a windshield. , are more susceptible to wind noise
[0005] In addition, in the prior art, simple high-pass filtering technology can also be used to eliminate wind noise. However, this method suppresses the frequency band where the entire wind noise is located. If there is a target sound signal that needs to be recorded in this frequency band, the target sound The signal will also be canceled together, thereby reducing the recording quality
[0006] To sum up, the existing technology cannot selectively suppress wind noise, so that it cannot guarantee a better recording effect

Embodiment Construction

[0020] The embodiment of the present invention provides a method and device for suppressing wind noise, which only suppresses wind noise and avoids suppressing target sound signals, thereby accurately suppressing wind noise and ensuring a better recording effect.

[0021] In the embodiment of the present invention, in the same scene, two channels of sound signals are collected at the same time, and the two channels of sound signals are cross-correlation analyzed in a part of the low frequency band where wind noise is the most concentrated to obtain the overall probability of wind noise. Transformation (FFT) converts the two input sound signals from the time domain to the frequency domain, and compares the correlation between the two signals in each frequency band (bin). Since the target sounds of the two signals collected at the same time in the same scene are very similar in the same frequency band, the correlation is strong, while the wind noise has almost no correlation. The em...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for suppressing wind noise and a device thereof, which are used for accurately suppressing the wind noise, thus ensuring that a better recording effect is achieved. The method for suppressing the wind noise comprises the following steps: performing cross-correlation operation on two channels of sound signals simultaneously acquired under a same scene to obtain a normalized cross-correlation value on each frequency band; and performing gain control on the two channels of sound signals by the normalized cross-correlation value on each frequency band to suppress the wind noise in the two channels of sound signals.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of audio signal processing, in particular to a method and device for suppressing wind noise. Background technique [0002] The biggest problem encountered when recording sound outdoors is wind interference. Due to wind interference, there is a large wind noise in the recording. Especially in a windy weather environment, the microphone (Mic) used to collect the sound will record the strong wind sound, which can almost drown the target sound you want to record. [0003] Wind noise is the noise produced by fast-moving gas forming swirling air around the Mic. Generally speaking, wind noise is mainly concentrated in the low frequency part, such as figure 1 As shown, most of the energy is usually concentrated below 1 kilohertz (Khz) frequency, and reaches the maximum at 100-200 Hz. [0004] Existing sound collection equipment is easy to collect wind noise outdoors. Users generally use a windshield to cover the...
