Patent attributes
Embodiments of this application discloses an azimuth estimation method performed at a computing device, the method including: obtaining, in real time, multi-channel sampling signals and buffering the multi-channel sampling signals; performing wakeup word detection on one or more sampling signals of the multi-channel sampling signals, and determining a wakeup word detection score for each channel of the one or more sampling signals; performing a spatial spectrum estimation on the buffered multi-channel sampling signals to obtain a spatial spectrum estimation result, when the wakeup word detection scores of the one or more sampling signals indicates that a wakeup word exists in the one or more sampling signals; and determining an azimuth of a target voice associated with the multi-channel sampling signals according to the spatial spectrum estimation result and a highest wakeup word detection score, thereby improving the accuracy of the azimuth estimation in a voice interaction process.
