NOISE SUPPRESSOR

An amplitude suppression quantity denoting a noise suppression level of a current frame is calculated in an amplitude suppression quantity calculating unit (20), a perceptual weight distributing pattern of both a spectral subtraction quantity and a spectral amplitude suppression quantity is determined in a perceptual weight pattern adjusting unit (21), the spectral subtraction quantity and the spectral amplitude suppression quantity given by the perceptual weight distributing pattern are corrected according to a frequency band SN ratio in a perceptual weight correcting unit (7), a noise subtracted spectrum is calculated from an amplitude spectrum, a noise spectrum and a corrected spectral subtraction quantity in a spectrum subtracting unit (8), and a noise suppressed spectrum is calculated from the noise subtracted spectrum and a corrected spectral amplitude suppression quantity in a spectrum suppressing unit (9).
