Zusammenfassung:A comfort noise generation apparatus constituted of: near and far end speech detectors arranged to detect speech activity in near-end and far-end signals and a comfort noise generator, wherein responsive to an indication from the near-end speech detector that speech activity is absent on the near-end signal and an indication from the far-end silence detector that speech activity is absent on the far-end signal, the comfort noise generator is arranged to initiate a determination of an estimation of near-end background noise, wherein responsive to an indication from the near-end speech detector that speech activity is present on the near-end signal or an indication from the far-end silence detector that speech activity is present on the far-end signal, the comfort noise generator is arranged to terminate the estimation determination of near-end background noise, and wherein the comfort noise generator is arranged to output a function of the near-end background noise estimation.
