Aiming at the problem of auditory negative enhancement of typical phase reconstruction method, an improved method of phase reconstruction and MMSE-LSA estimation is proposed. First, the geometric relationship between noisy speech and clean speech in unvoiced segment is used to estimate the phase of the clean speech; Second, considering the randomness of speech appearance in the actual noise environment, a modified MMSE-LSA amplitude estimation is proposed by using the binary hypothesis model. Finally, the new phase reconstruction in voiced and unvoiced speech is combined with the modified MMSE-LSA. The simulation results show that the performance of the algorithm proposed in this paper is better than typical phase reconstruction method in terms of the SegSNR and PESQ.
