Digital Processing of Speech Signal VI Sem ECE. Assignment No:2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1) How do you calculate the Short time Energy of a speech signal ? Explain how the length of a Window affects the Short time Energy plot ? 2) Obtain the Difference equation representation for Short time Energy of a signal which is calculated using a window with impulse response h(n) given below ? ( ) {

3) Explain what is the effect of using Hamming window in calculation of STACF ? 4) How do you calculate the Short time ACF of a speech signal ? (Give definition and block diagram) What is the effect of window length N on STACF ? 5) Explain method of speech vs. silence discrimination using Energy and Zero-crossings ? 6) Consider a periodic impulse train ( ) ( ) with P= 4. a)Find and plot the Short time ACF of this signal using a Rectangular window of length i) N= 4 and ii) N=8 b) Obtain the Modified STACF for Rectangular window with length N=5 and greatest lag K=5.
