Abstract

A band separating unit 5 carries out a band division of a plurality of power spectra into which an input signal is converted by a time-to-frequency converting unit 2 to combine power spectra into each subband, and a band representative component generating unit 6 defines a power spectrum having a maximum among the plurality of power spectra within each subband as a representative power spectrum. A noise suppression amount generating unit 7 calculates an amount of noise suppression for each subband by using the representative power spectrum and a noise spectrum, and a noise suppressing unit 9 suppresses the amplitudes of the power spectra according to the amount of noise suppression.
