Abstract
A method and a system of noise suppressing an audio signal comprising a combination of at least two audio system input signals each having a sound source signal portion and a background noise portion, the method and system comprising steps and means of: Extracting at least two different types of spatial sound field features from the input signals such as discriminative speech and/or background noise features, computing a first intermediate spatial noise suppression gain on the basis of the extracted spatial sound field features, computing a second intermediate stationary noise suppression gain, combining the two intermediate noise suppression gains to form a total noise suppression gain, wherein the two intermediate noise suppression gains are combined by comparing their values and dependent on their ratio or relative difference, determining the total noise suppression gain, applying the total noise suppression gain to the audio signal to generate a noise suppressed audio system output signal.
