Abstract
A simple and robust method of reliably detecting stationary noise peri ods in a mobile telephony environment is presented. Such noise detecti on techniques are useful for updating parameters in adaptive voice act ivity detectors and for speech enhancement techniques, such as spectra l subtraction, which require accurate noise models.
