Enhancing audio perception in noisy environments is currently one of the most explored topics in the field of signal processing. After thorough research, engineers who have developed noise suppression filter using filter banks or any related approaches are faced with the difficulty of removing the noise caused when the input sound signal is passed through a filter. This paper introduces a technique using ERB (Equivalent Rectangular Bandwidth) that enhances the attributes of a clean signal such that it sounds clearer in the presence of background noise. The intended audiences are scientists and researchers in the field of exploring audio signal processing.
