Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To improve speech intelligibility of a loudspeaker announcement in noisy outdoor conditions such as a heavy rain and a snow storm, characteristics of announcement words, sound transmission, and speech perception were investigated. It was revealed that speech perception is degraded mainly by a time-delayed overlap of announcement caused by multi-loudspeakers' output especially with 100ms to 200ms time delay. Easy words for an intelligible announcement were proposed from the perspective of phoneme's noise tolerance and word familiarity.
