Abstract

An impulse noise detector detects impulse noise in an audio signal by filtering out the audio components of the signal, then comparing an envelope of a filtered signal with a threshold obtained as a moving average of the envelope. Short-duration impulse noise is thereby detected without detecting tone bursts and other fast-rising signals of longer duration. The envelope may be taken directly from the filtered signal, or from a difference signal obtained from a preliminary envelope of the filtered signal, to emphasize impulse noise when distorted audio components leak into the filtered signal.
