Embodiment Construction

[0029] figure 1 System 1 is shown, which is suitable for suppressing audio distortion in a desired signal. The illustrated system has a loudspeaker 2 and a microphone array 3 comprising two microphones 3-1, 3-2. The audio output signal on output 4 is reproduced by loudspeaker 2 . A near-end source (not shown) generates the desired speech, which is received by array 3 as the desired speech signal. In addition, if figure 2 As explained in , the array 3 senses different kinds of distortions other than noise, echoes in the form of early (first part) reflections of the direct signal from the loudspeaker 2 to the array 3 and after a certain exponential decay (second part) the so-called Reflections in the form of reverberation, where reverberation is shown as the reverberation tail of a typical room impulse response, as a function of time. Each microphone 3-1, 3-2 may have an echo canceller g associated therewith 1 and g 2 , the echo cancellers are respectively coupled between...

Abstract

A system (1) is described which is suited for suppressing audio distortion. The system comprises echo cancelling means g1, g2 coupled between an audio output (4) and a distorted desired audio sensing microphone array (3), and a filter arrangement (7) coupled to the echo cancelling means g1, g2 and / or the microphone array (3). The filter arrangements' coefficients represent reverberation distortion in the desired audio sensed by the microphone array (3).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system for suppressing audio distortion, comprising: [0002] - an echo canceling device coupled between the audio output and the array of distortion-desired-sound-sensing microphones, and [0003] - A filtering device coupled to the echo canceling means and / or the microphone array. [0004] The invention also relates to a filtering device applied to said system and to a method of suppressing audio distortion. Background technique [0005] Such a system is known from WO 97 / 45995. This known audio system includes an adaptive echo cancellation filter for canceling echoes between the system speaker output and the microphone. This known system has a filtering device coupled to the echo cancellation filter and the microphone for spectrally suppressing the echo components of the microphone signal which are not canceled by the echo cancellation filter. One microphone senses a desired audio signal, while the other microph...
