Summary :

In this paper, we first propose a new speech enhancement preprocessing algorithm by combining power subtraction method and maximal ratio combining technique, then apply it to both energy-based and statistical model-based VAD algorithm to improve the performance even in low SNR conditions. We also perform extensive computer simulations to demonstrate the performance improvement of the proposed VAD algorithm employing the proposed speech enhancement preprocessing algorithm under various background noise environments.
