26、nt 3 is to evaluate the performances of the NS algorithm in background noise conditions with two different bit-rates (5.9 kbps and 12.2 kbps). For these experiments three types of noise have been selected: car noise, street noise and babble noise. For each type of noise two different nominal SNR lev

27、els have been set: 1 I For each sub-experiment and for each type of noise three ideal NS reference conditions will be processed. The exception is that for the higher SNRs (15dB for car noise and 18 dB for street, babble noise) only 2 ideal noise reference conditions will be tested (+3, +6dB): Ideal

28、SNR improvement SNR sub-exp. +6 dB Each ideal NS will be compared during the sub-experiment with the speech+noise signals mixed at the nominal SNR levels. This leads to a total number of CCR reference results of 5 per sub-experiment corresponding to 3 (2 for the higher SNRs) SNR improvement levels.

29、By connecting adjacent point by straight lines we will obtain a graph giving a correspondence between CCR scores and perceived SNR improvement (cf. figure B. 1). Finally the perceived SNR improvement for an AMR-NS candidate is obtained using the CCR vs SNR graph as illustrated in figure B. 1. SNR im

35、igure A.l) measured at the head position of the subject. This will help ensure consistency between the different subjects in the same laboratory as well as across the different laboratories in which these experiments will be performed. The following points should be adhered to: Where the experiment

36、design and the listening environment allows for multiple subjects in each listening session, the requirements stated above apply to each of the positions the subjects will occupy. Where there are multiple simultaneous subjects, they should not be able to see the responses made by other subjects. All

37、 test stimuli will be presented to the subjects over a telephone handset with Modified IRS receiving response (exclusive of the SRAEN filter). Any deviation shall be reported, e.g. use of one ear-piece in a headphone. ETSI 3GPP TS 06.77 version 8.1.1 Release 1999 29 ETSI TS 101 512 V8.1.1 (2001-04)

38、C6.5 Subjects should be told not to discuss the experiment with subjects who are yet to participate. Any test house performing multiple experiments must use different listening subjects for each experiment or sub-experiment. Experimental Procedure Initially the experimenter should present and explai

39、n the experiment instructions to the subjects. When the subject has understood the instructions, they will first listen and give score to the preliminary conditions. After the preliminaries have been completed, there should be sufficient time allowed for answering possible questions from the subject

40、s. Any questions about the procedure or the meaning of the instructions should be answered, but any technical questions on matters such as the experimental methodology or details of the types of distortions they are listening to must not be answered until they have completed the experiment. C6.6 Pre

41、liminary Conditions Preliminary conditions are included in the experiment to help acclimatize the subjects with the experimental procedure and to help reduce learning effects of the subjects, by ensuring that the subjects hear a full range of the potential qualities at the start of the experiment. N

42、o suggestions should be made to the subjects that the preliminary samples include the best or worst in the range to be covered, or exhaust the range of conditions they can expect to hear. C6.7 Reference Conditions Four types of reference conditions are used in these experiments: AMR without NS Refer

43、ences: These are to be used to determine how the AMR Noise Suppresser performs in relation to these. Direct unprocessed speech plus noise source material. MNRU references: These are included as standard references of known and well understood performance and will allow the results to be expressed in

44、 terms of Equivalent Q as well as MOS for the ACR tests. MNRUs are also included in the CCR tests as references to estimate the test sensitivity and explore most of the CMOS range. For the CCR experiments, relative MNRU comparisons are used to estimate the test sensitivity. For example an MNRU of 12

45、 may be compared to an MNRU of 16. If this difference is just above the significance level, it represents the test sensitivity. Ideal noise suppression levels: These are represented by varying the SNR level between the speech and noise. These conditions are AMR processed. This is an attempt to defin

46、e equivalent noise suppression levels. For the Tests involving background noise conditions, the MNRU references will use noisy speech (i.e. background noise will be used with the MNRU). The exact number of each of these types of reference in each experiment can be found in the experiment plans in th

47、e sections 7-10. C6.8 Noise Material Most of the Noise Suppresser Selection Test Experiments require the addition of noise to the speech material. The following types of noise are identified in this test plan: Car Noise: This represents stationary (static) background noise and will be typical of the noise experienced when inside a moving vehicle (car) at a constant speed.
