the op is asking about the frequency range of the ENVELOPE of SPEECH
signals.

In hardware terms this would be the bandwidth of the control signal on
a voice AGC system.

I estimate this would be in the range of below 1 Hz up to maybe 100
Hz.

100 Hz seems a bit high. I asked the OP what he meant, and he hasn't yet
answered.
