A system and method for determining DTMF coefficients stores a plurality of reference templates, at least some of said reference templates representative of likelihood ratios. A plurality of LPC coefficients is received. The LPC coefficients are representative of an input signal. The system and method determines a plurality of current likelihood ratios based, at least in part, upon the LPC coefficients. The system and method also determines an initial tone based, at least in part, on the minimum of the current likelihood ratios and the minimum of the reference likelihood ratios. A plurality of LSF coefficients is received. The LSF coefficients are determined, at least in part, upon the input signal. The system and method verifies the validity of the initial tone based, at least in part, upon the LSF coefficients.

System and method for DTMF detection using likelihood ratios

A system for creating a comfort noise signal, said system includes a clipping circuit, a comfort noise generator, and a switch. The clipping circuit receives a near-end signal, a far-end signal and a residual signal. The clipping circuit determines the power of the far-end signal, the power of the near-end signal and the power of the residual signal. The clipping circuit determines the ratio of the power of the near-end signal to the residual signal and whether the ratio is less than a predetermined threshold. A comfort noise determination block is coupled to the residual signal and selectively forms a comfort noise signal. A switch is coupled to the comfort noise determination block and the clipping circuit. The switch is activated to transmit the comfort noise signal whenever the ratio of the power of the near-end signal to the residual signal is less than a predetermined threshold.

System and method for comfort noise generation

A system and method for DTMF tone detection receives an input signal. The input signal includes a DTMF tone. The DTMF tone has a first frequency and a second frequency. An initial first frequency and an initial second frequency of said DTMF tone are selected by calculating a plurality of cost functions. The initial first frequency is confirmed to be the first frequency and the initial second frequency is confirmed to be the second frequency using re-computed values of the plurality of cost functions.
