 note = {A new system identification based method has been proposed for accurate estimation of vocal tract parameters. An often encountered problem in using the conventional linear prediction analysis is due to the harmonic structure of the excitation source of voiced speech. This harmonic characteristic is coupled with the estimation of autoregressive (AR) coefficients that results in difficulties in estimating the vocal tract filter. This paper models the effective voice source from the residual obtained through the covariance analysis in the first-pass which is then used as input to the second-pass least-square analysis. A better source-filter separation is thus achieved. The formant frequencies and corresponding bandwidths obtained using the proposed method for synthetic vowels are found to be accurate up to a factor of more than three (in percent) compared to the conventional method. Since the source characteristic is taken into account, local variations due to the positioning of analysis window are reduced significantly. The validity of the proposed method is also examined by inspecting the spectra obtained from natural vowel sounds uttered by high-pitched female speaker., copyright(c)2006 IEICE
