Abstract

See full text

This application relates to a voice activity detection (VAD) apparatus configured to provide a voice activity detection decision for an input audio signal. The VAD apparatus includes a state detector and a voice activity calculator. The state detector is configured to determine, based on the input audio signal, a current working state of the VAD apparatus among at least two different working states. Each of the at least two different working states is associated with a corresponding working state parameter decision set which includes at least one voice activity decision parameter. The voice activity calculator is configured to calculate a voice activity detection parameter value for the at least one voice activity decision parameter of the working state parameter decision set associated with the current working state, and to provide the voice activity detection decision by comparing the calculated voice activity detection parameter value with a threshold.
