In this paper, smart volume controller (SVC) using fuzzy logic is developed for mobile phones in order to improve the voice quality in the presence of background noise. The SVC uses the noise level and class information as an input to automatically raise the volume of the cell phone in the presence of background noise. Smart volume controller mainly consists of two stages: (i) Noise Classification, (ii) Fuzzy Volume Controller. Noise classification includes feature extraction and feature matching using artificial neural network classifier to differentiate between different types of noise classes. The maximum noise attenuation level of up to 55db was achieved while experimenting with the four different types of noises such as car noise, market noise, office noise, and train noise using the proposed volume controller that seems to be quite satisfactory.
