Problems solved by technology

[0004] When designing the placement of microphone arrays, car manufacturers often consider factors such as placement location and wiring layout. In most cases, they tend to place the microphones at the front reading lights in the car, and due to the small space, only two microphones can be placed.
From the perspective of technical implementation, dual-mic beamforming is more difficult, and the suppression effect on the direction of interference is not ideal.
However, increasing the number of microphones in the microphone array will lead to an increase in cost and difficulty in the layout of the microphone array

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to speech signal processing technologies, and in particular to a dual-microphone array beamforming method, device, and equipment. Background technique [0002] Speech enhancement technology based on microphone array has been widely used in communication, human-computer interaction, speech recognition system and so on. [0003] Voice enhancement technology In some usage scenarios, the direction of the voice source is relatively fixed. In this case, it is necessary to enhance the voice of the preset target direction to reduce noise interference. For example, in the vehicle voice interaction scenario, the driver's seat and the passenger seat are the main sources of voice information, so to realize the voice interaction between the driver and the vehicle, it is necessary to suppress the sound from the direction of the passenger. To address this requirement, it is generally necessary to use a beamforming (BF) tec...
