Title:
NOISE ERASING DEVICE AND METHOD, AND NOISE ERASING PROGRAM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/142111
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[PROBLEMS] To detect divergence of a coefficient of an adaptive filter without setting in advance, a threshold value based on characteristics of a device or an environment from which a noise is to be erased. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] A noise erasing device includes: a divergence coefficient calculation unit (6) for obtaining a filter divergence coefficient from a filter coefficient of a section not including a filter coefficient at the basic tap position decided by the distance between a reference input unit (2) and an audio input unit (1); a divergence threshold value calculation unit (7) for obtaining a filter divergence threshold value from a filter coefficient of a section including the filter coefficient at the basic tap position; and a divergence detection unit (8) for comparing the filter divergence coefficient to the filter divergence threshold value so as to detect the divergence condition of the adaptive filter. If the filter divergence coefficient is smaller than the filter divergence threshold value, the divergence detection unit (8) judges that the filter coefficient is not diverged. On the contrary, if the filter divergence coefficient is greater than the filter divergence threshold value, the divergence detection unit (8) judges that the filter coefficient is diverged. According to this judgment result, the filter coefficient is initialized.
