Morphology
The meaning 'the process of hearing, interpreting, and understanding spoken language' is directly and predictably built from 'speech' (spoken language/sounds) and 'perception' (the process of sensing or interpreting). This noun+noun compositional pattern is cross-linguistically common and follows standard English semantics, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents would readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Speech perception joins speech (spoken words) and perception (noticing and understanding). Imagine your ears sending sounds to your mind and your mind 'catches' them and makes sense of them, so speech perception means 'the process of hearing and understanding spoken language'.
