DSP Project Proposal

This project aims to demonstrate practical application of different types of filters in de-noising audio signals. Noisy audio samples will be collected and analyzed to determine appropriate filter design. MATLAB tools like the Filter Design & Analysis Tool will be used to design and test filters. The project will be implemented over 8 weeks, involving tasks like data collection, filter design, analysis, and reporting of results. The goal is to gain experience in filter design and its application in signal processing.

Project Proposal) * ilter +esi,n to +e-noise au+io si,nals. Project Goal


The project aims to demonstrate practical application of different types of filters in de-noising audio signals. We wish to investigate appropriate filter design to eliminate noise patterns in a set of different noise-corrupted audio signals.

Project Description
We have a noisy audio signal. The original speech and the Signal to Noise ratio are both unknown. Our method de-noise the signal is to e tract information of noise patterns from the corrupted audio signal by analy!ing the power spectral density of the signal. "ased on the observations in the spectral density# appropriate filter type and filter parameters would be determined. Ne t# the filters would be applied to the noisy signal and filter performance would be noted. $ilter coefficients would be modified until satisfactory levels of signal to noise ratio are achieved. This process would be repeated for a set of noisy signals to e perience application of different filter designs. Data collection Noisy audio file samples can be found on several websites the internet. One such website is http%&&signalogic.com&inde .pl'page(codec)samples. The working environment for this project would be *+T,+".

MATLAB functions/tools Main function There would be a main function which would read the file# cut the file into frames# plot power spectral density function of the frames# apply filter functions to the frames# output the filtered frame to an audio file for performance check and lastly repeat the process for the entire signal. MATLAB * DAtool. The project features design of different filters for the same&different audio signals. This includes changing filter type and specifications. The use of $-+tool would be preferred in this project for its convenience and .uick design benefits over command line filter design. The /$ilter -esign and +nalysis Tool 0$-+Tool12 is a graphical user interface 03451 in *+T,+" Signal 6rocessing Toolbo 7. With this# we can .uickly design $58&558 filters by setting up re.uisite filter specifications. The $-+tool can be called up by the 9fdatool: command.

$ilter design is an elementary application in digital signal processing. Astablishing this project would be a good learning e perience in filter design and application. We think that the project demonstration at the end of the class could serve as a good tutorial for the students as well. 4sing this e perience# we can e plore advanced topics in signal processing in future.
