Abstract: A method for estimating a noise power level difference (NPLD) between a primary microphone and a reference microphone of an audio device includes obtaining primary and reference channels of an audio signal with primary and reference microphones of an audio device and estimating a noise magnitude of the reference channel of the audio signal to provide a noise variance estimate for one or more frequencies. A modelled probability density function (PDF) of a fast Fourier transform (FFT) coefficient of the primary channel of the audio signal is maximized to provide a NPLD between the noise variance estimate of the reference channel and a noise variance estimate of the primary channel. A modelled PDF of an FFT coefficient of the reference channel of the audio signal is maximized to provide a complex speech power level difference (SPLD) coefficient between the speech FFT coefficients of the primary and reference channel. A corrected noise magnitude of the reference channel is then calculated based on the noise variance estimate, the NPLD and the SPLD coefficient.

Abstract: A method for estimating and minimizing a noise power level difference (NPLD) between a primary channel and a reference channel of an audio device, includes receiving, by a primary channel, an audio signal that has a speech signal level and a noise signal level; receiving, by a reference channel, the audio signal with another speech signal level and another noise signal level; using the reference channel to estimate the noise signal level in the primary channel by reducing the another speech signal level; and compensating for a difference between the noise signal level and the another noise signal level to minimize a noise power level difference NPLD between the primary channel and the reference channel.
