Abstract
The article considers the problem of estimating the parameters of the autoregressive (AR) signal in the presence of background noise. Based on the frequency representation of the AR signal, a technique of calculating the likelihood function of the AR parameters is shown and the implementation of the Expectation-Maximization method for iterative evaluation of the AR parameters is considered. Analysis of different measures of distortion of speech signals shows that the proposed approaches in the frequency domain have the same accuracy as the corresponding approaches in the time domain, but are characterized by significantly lower computing costs.
