Abstract:
An apparatus, such as a headset, configured to process audio signals from multiple microphones, comprising: a first pair of microphones (101, 102) outputting a first pair of microphone signals and a second pair of microphones (103, 104) outputting a second pair of microphone signals; a first beamformer (105) and a second beamformer (106) each configured to receive a pair of microphone signals and adapt the spatial sensitivity of a respective pair of microphones as measured in a respective beamformed signal (XL; XR) output from a respective beamformer (105; 106); wherein the spatial sensitivity is adapted to suppress noise relative to a desired signal; a third beamformer (107) configured to dynamically combine the signals (XL; XR) output from the first beamformer (105) and the second beamformer (106) into a combined signal (XC); wherein the signals are combined such that signal energy in the combined signal is minimized while a desired signal is preserved; and a noise reduction unit (109) configured to process the combined signal (XC) from the third beamformer (107) and output the combined signal such that noise is reduced.

Abstract:
Noise cancelling headsets and a method of improving audio sensitivity for a headset are disclosed. The headset comprises a speaker, a microphone unit comprising at least a first and a second microphone for picking up incoming sound and generating a first audio signal generated at least partly from the at least first microphone and a second audio signal being at least partly generated from the at least second microphone, a signal processor being configured to receive and analyse the first audio signal and the second audio signal to determine one or more equalization filter coefficients, an equalization filter configured to receive the second audio signal and the one or more equalization coefficients, and to equalize the second audio signal according to the determined one or more equalization filter coefficients to provide an output audio signal, wherein the one or more equalization filter coefficient are determined so as to approximate a power spectrum of the output audio signal to a power spectrum of the first audio signal.
Abstract:
A headset base unit comprising a base housing, a first connection device, by means of which the headset base unit is connectable to at least one telecommunication device, such as a desk phone or a PC phone. Furthermore, the headset base unit comprises a second connection device, by means of which the headset base unit is connectable to a headset, and a device holder for holding a mobile communication device with a device user interface. The headset base comprises control means, by means of which an audio channel can be opened between the headset base unit and a selected one of the telecommunication devices. The headset base unit is adapted to receive control commands from the mobile communication device for controlling the selected telecommunication device connected to the first connection device, whereby a user can control the telecommunication device by means of the device user interface.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method of programming a processing unit by firmware in a protocol converter for providing first data received from a telephone device in accordance with a first protocol to a headset system in accordance with a second protocol and for providing second data received from the headset system in accordance with the second protocol to the telephone in accordance with the first protocol, the operation of the protocol converter being controlled by the processing unit. The invention further relates to a protocol converter, such as an Electronic Hook Switch adapter, for providing first data received from a telephone device in accordance with a first protocol to a headset system in accordance with a second protocol and for providing second data received from the headset system in accordance with the second protocol to the telephone device in accordance with the first protocol. The headset system provides firmware to the protocol converter in accordance with the second protocol.
