Abstract

Speech signal presence is decided if total signal power is above a first threshold, and if either low or high frequency components exceed thresholds as a large fraction of the total power. Total power is calculated as the zero-order auto-correlation coefficient, and fractional power of frequency components is calculated as the first-order partial auto-correlation coefficient.
