Process and Analysis of Voice Signal by MATLAB

Abstract: Deliver message by voice is the most important, effective and common method of exchange information for mankind. Language is human specific features and human voice is commonly used tool which is also the important way to pass information to each other. The voice has large information capacity. So we can use modern method to study voice processing technology, so that people can easily transmit, store, access and apply the voice. In this thesis, we designed a collection system that can collect voice and use different filters to filter the noise. After filtering the noise, the voice will be more quality in mobile communication, radio, TV and so on. In this thesis we use Microsoft recorder to collect a voice, and then analyze its time-domain, the frequency spectrum and the characteristics of the voice signal. We use MATLAB‟s function to remove the noise which has been added to the voice, further use bilinear transformation method to design a filter which is based on Butterworth simulation and window function and then filter the voice signal which has been added noise. After that we compare the time-domain and frequency-domain of the original voice and noised voice, then playback the noised voice and de-noising voice and then compare the application of signal processing in FIR filter and IIR filter, especially in the perspectives of the signal filtering de-noising characteristics and applications. According to the comparison, we can determine which filter is the best.
