Abstract

An audio apparatus is provided. The audio apparatus includes an input configured to receive an audio signal containing noise; a period estimation unit configured to estimate a period of a noise pattern in the audio signal; a noise reducer configured to subtract and remove the noise pattern from the audio signal in a frequency domain by using the estimated period of the noise pattern; a noise updater configured to update the noise pattern according to a change in amplitude of the noise; and an output configured to output the audio signal obtained by removing the noise pattern.
