Abstract

A method for generating a comfort noise (CN) parameter is provided. The method includes receiving an audio input; detecting, with a Voice Activity Detector (VAD), a current inactive segment in the audio input; as a result of detecting, with the VAD, the current inactive segment in the audio input, calculating a CN parameter CNused; and providing the CN parameter CNused to a decoder. The CN parameter CNused is calculated based at least in part on the current inactive segment and a previous inactive segment.
