    Abstract: The invention provides an audio signal processing system in which a magnitude spectrum of a frequency domain audio signal is processed based on a measure of multipath interference. The processing keeps the magnitude spectrum approximately fixed during periods of multipath interference, for example by replacing it with a temporally smoothed version of the magnitude spectrum. The magnitude spectrum (processed if required) and the phase spectrum are combined to derive a frequency domain output, which is transformed to the time domain.

    Abstract: An audio processor and method of audio processing for an amplifier system is described. The audio processor may receive an audio signal and adapt the audio signal generating a time varying offset. The time varying offset may be combined with the audio signal resulting in a shifted the audio signal level. The processed audio signal may also be clipped to remove the negative samples values. The processed signal may be used to drive an amplifier designed to only accept positive (or negative) signals such as a class C amplifier.

    Abstract: A receiver circuit comprising a first-input-terminal configured to receive an analog-input-signal, which is representative of audio-data; and a second-input-terminal configured to receive a digital-input-signal, which is representative of the same audio-data as the analog-input-signal. The receiver circuit also includes a noise-estimator configured to determine a noise-signal that is representative of a difference between the analog-input-signal and the digital-input-signal; and a de-noiser that is configured to determine a de-noised-signal by applying a de-noising algorithm to the analog-input-signal based on the noise-signal.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for speech communication is described. An audio transmit processor captures at least two audio signals from an audio source, and processes the at least two audio signals to provide a mono audio signal and a non-audio signal comprising spatial information representative of the direction of the audio source. The audio transmit processor combines the non-audio signal with the mono audio signal by watermarking; and transmits the watermarked audio signal. An audio receive processor receives a watermarked audio signal and extracts a mono audio signal and a non-audio signal comprising spatial information from the watermarked audio signal. The audio receive processor processes the mono audio signal and spatial information to generate at least two output audio signals.

    Abstract: An acoustic coupling sensor 200 for a portable electronic device is described which includes an acoustic transmitter 22, a reference signal generator 20 coupled to the acoustic transmitter, and an acoustic sensor 24 wherein in operation, the reference signal generator is operable to transmit the reference signal to the acoustic transmitter, to detect an acoustic level of the transmitted reference signal via the acoustic sensor, and wherein the detected reference signal level corresponds to a value of acoustic coupling between the acoustic transmitter and the acoustic sensor. The acoustic coupling sensor may be used for example in a mobile phone to detect acoustic leakage in order to adapt the acoustic level in the mobile phone during use.

    Abstract: An audio system is described including an audio processor, an amplifier and a speaker and a distortion estimator. The distortion estimator calculates at least one of an expected response of the amplifier to an audio signal and an expected response of the loudspeaker to an audio signal. The distortion estimator is operable to generate a distortion prediction signal determined by a difference between an expected non-linear response of at least one of the loudspeaker and the amplifier and an expected linear response of at least one of the loudspeaker and the amplifier. A controller coupled to the audio processor and a control input of the audio processor may vary the operating parameters of the audio processor depending on the estimated distortion.

    Abstract: An audio controller for use with a loudspeaker that generates sound in dependence upon a loudspeaker signal is disclosed. The loudspeaker includes a voice coil. The audio controller includes a monitor to monitor an electric response of the voice coil to the loudspeaker signal and a signal generator to generate an evaluation signal. The evaluation signal comprises a signal having an evaluation frequency that is below resonant frequency of the loudspeaker. A processing unit is included to generate, based on the monitored electric response, the loudspeaker signal from an input sound signal. The processing unit is configured to combine the evaluation signal with the input sound signal to generate the loudspeaker signal.
