Problems solved by technology

However, in actual scenarios, there is often a certain amount of signal refraction, which brings great challenges to DOA, especially when signal refraction coexists with multiple strong interferences and the number of microphones is small, DOA is extremely easy to misjudge

Abstract

The invention discloses a microphone array beam forming method. The invention provides a microphone array beam forming method for solving the problem that a microphone array beam forming algorithm cannot well estimate a noise and interference covariance matrix and a source voice signal steering vector in a noisy and multi-voice interference environment. According to the invention, on the basis oftraditional microphone array beam forming; a direction template is constructed, a time-frequency masking value TFmask is obtained by using a phase difference vector of a time-frequency unit signal andan included angle cosine of different direction templates, and voice interference of a source signal and voice interference of other directions are distinguished as much as possible in a short-time Fourier transform domain with a relatively low calculated amount.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of noise and interference suppression, and in particular relates to a microphone array beamforming method. Background technique [0002] Microphone array beamforming estimates the environmental covariance matrix (noise and interference) and the source voice signal steering vector. In order to improve the quality of voice calls and improve the accuracy of intelligent voice interaction, the relevant beam form filter weights are designed to improve signal interference and noise. The purpose of Signal-to-Interferences-plus-Noise Ratio (SINR). [0003] The effectiveness of traditional microphone array beamforming methods depends on the accuracy of the estimation of the environmental covariance matrix and the steering vector of the source speech signal. [0004] There are two commonly used methods for estimating the environmental covariance matrix: (1) Use the Voice Activity Detection (VAD) algorithm to estimate ...
