Abstract

See full text

A method and system for utilizing information content in speech and a transition hangover between speech and noise to generate comfort noise on the decoder side. This adaptation to noise may be accomplished using various algorithms of estimating the spectrum of color noise. According to an embodiment of the present invention, an adaptation algorithm may be implemented that adapts with time, rather than a block based algorithm to prevent the repeated generation of artifacts present in the block that are being adapting to. The method and system of the present invention generates comfort noise in the absence of silent insertion descriptions containing spectrum information thereby saving bandwidth and generating colored comfort noise that reflects the spectrum of the actual noise.
