  • Patent number: 9905250
    Abstract: A voice detection method which makes it possible to detect the presence of voice signals in an noisy acoustic signal x(t) from a microphone, including the following consecutive steps: calculating a detection function FD(?) based on calculating a difference function D(?) varying in accordance with the shift ? on an integration window with length W starting at the time t0, with: a step of adapting the threshold in said current interval, in accordance with values calculated from the acoustic signal x(t) established in said current interval; searching for the minimum of the detection function FD(?) and comparing the minimum with a threshold, for (?) varying in a predetermined time interval referred to as current interval so as to detect the possible presence of a fundamental frequency F0 that is characteristic of a voice signal in said current interval.
