Abstract

In this paper, Discrete-wavelet transform (DWT) based algorithm are used for speech signal denoising. Here both hard and soft thresholding are used for denoising. Analysis is done on noisy speech signal corrupted by babble noise at 0dB, 5dB, 10dB and 15dB SNR levels. Simulation & results are performed in MATLAB 7.10.0 (R2010a). Output SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) and MSE (Mean Square Error) is calculated & compared using both types of thresholding methods. Soft thresholding method performs better than hard thresholding at all input SNR levels. Hard thresholding shows a maximum of 21.79 dB improvement whereas soft thresholding shows a maximum of 35.16 dB improvement in output SNR.
