Abstract
Background noise estimators and methods are disclosed for estimating background noise in an audio signal. Some methods include obtaining at least one parameter associated with an audio signal segment, such as a frame or part of a frame, based on a first linear prediction gain, calculated as a quotient between a residual signal from a 0th-order linear prediction and a residual signal from a 2nd-order linear prediction for the audio signal segment. A second linear prediction gain is calculated as a quotient between a residual signal from a 2nd-order linear prediction and a residual signal from a 16th-order linear prediction for the audio signal segment. Whether the audio signal segment comprises a pause is determined based at least on the obtained at least one parameter; and a background noise estimate is updated based on the audio signal segment when the audio signal segment comprises a pause.
