Abstract

A blind signal separation method includes: performing noise reduction preprocessing on a detected voice signal, wherein the voice signal is a linear superposition signal of a plurality of simultaneous signal source voice messages; constructing, by means of non-Gaussian measurement, a target function for the preprocessed voice signal; estimating, by means of an iterative algorithm, an expectation-maximization separation matrix W of the target function; and deriving an estimated target separation signal U(n) from U(n)=WX(n), wherein X(n) is a vector constructed by the plurality of signal source voice messages.
