Noise Reduction improves voice clarity by reducing background noise. Noise Reduction occurs on the transmitting radio prior to transmission (in analog mode) and prior to voice coding (in digital mode). Not only does reducing background noise improve voice clarity for an analog mode transmission, in digital mode a cleaner speech signal going into the voice-encoder (vocoder) results in clearer voice being received and decoded in the receiver.
