Noise suppression (NS) is an audio pre-processing which removes background noise from the * captured signal. The component of the signal considered as noise can be either stationary * (car/airplane engine, AC system) or non-stationary (other peoples conversations, car horn) for * more advanced implementations. *
NS is mostly used by voice communication applications (voice chat, video conferencing, * SIP calls). *
An application creates a NoiseSuppressor object to instantiate and control an NS * engine in the audio framework. *
To attach the NoiseSuppressor to a particular {@link android.media.AudioRecord}, * specify the audio session ID of this AudioRecord when creating the NoiseSuppressor. * The audio session is retrieved by calling * {@link android.media.AudioRecord#getAudioSessionId()} on the AudioRecord instance. *
On some devices, NS can be inserted by default in the capture path by the platform * according to the {@link android.media.MediaRecorder.AudioSource} used. The application should * call NoiseSuppressor.getEnable() after creating the NS to check the default NS activation * state on a particular AudioRecord session. *
See {@link android.media.audiofx.AudioEffect} class for more details on * controlling audio effects. */ public class NoiseSuppressor extends AudioEffect { private final static String TAG = "NoiseSuppressor"; /** * Checks if the device implements noise suppression. * @return true if the device implements noise suppression, false otherwise. */ public static boolean isAvailable() { return AudioEffect.isEffectTypeAvailable(AudioEffect.EFFECT_TYPE_NS); } /** * Creates a NoiseSuppressor and attaches it to the AudioRecord on the audio * session specified. * @param audioSession system wide unique audio session identifier.
