Abstract
A noise suppressor comprises a first (401) and a second transformer (403) for generating a first and second frequency domain signal from a frequency transform of a first and second microphone signal. A gain unit (405, 407, 409) determines time frequency tile gains in response to a difference measure for magnitude time frequency tile values of the first frequency domain signal and magnitude time frequency tile values of the second frequency domain signal. A scaler (411) generates a third frequency domain signal by scaling time frequency tile values of the first frequency domain signal by the time frequency tile gains; and the resulting signal is converted to the time domain by a third transformer (413). A designator (405, 407, 415) designates time frequency tiles of the first frequency domain signal as speech tiles or noise tiles; and the gain unit (409) determines the gains in response to the designation of the time frequency tiles as speech tiles or noise tiles.
