Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to reducing noise in and improving speech signals and radio signals. A device may identify a radio frequency signal received by radio frequency circuity at a time; apply a Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT) to the radio frequency signal to generate a STFT signal; identify a signal-to-noise ratio associated with the radio frequency signal at the time; identify a packet-error-rate associated with the radio frequency signal at the time; identify activity when the multiplexed radio frequency signal is received by the radio frequency circuity at the time; select, based on the signal-to-noise ratio, the packet-error-rate, and the activity, a spectral mask to be applied to the STFT signal; apply the selected spectral mask to the STFT signal to generate a clean STFT signal; and apply an inverse STFT to the clean STFT signal to generate a clean radio frequency signal.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . An apparatus for reducing noise in and improving speech signals and radio signals, the apparatus comprising processing circuitry coupled to memory, the processing circuitry configured to: identify a multiplexed radio frequency signal received by radio frequency circuitry of a device comprising the apparatus at a time; apply a Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT) to the multiplexed radio frequency signal to generate a STFT signal in a STFT domain; ident…
