    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for position-robust multiple microphone noise estimation techniques. The position-robust noise estimation techniques can be used when receiving speech including diffuse noise sources, which is commonly encountered in noisy environments. The position-robust noise estimation techniques include detecting speech using the power level difference (PLD) and the coherence statistics (CS) between two microphone input signals. This multi-dimensional approach results in dual microphone noise estimation which is not affected by the position of the audio input device, resulting in more accurate detection of speech periods and more accurate noise estimation results. The position-robust noise estimate obtained from the techniques can then be used as part of a noise reduction system to reduce the levels of noise in noisy speech signals.

    Abstract: In one example a controller comprises logic, at least partially including hardware logic, configured to detect speech activity in an audio signal received in a non-aerial microphone and in response to the voice activity, to apply a noise cancellation algorithm to a speech input received in a aerial microphone. Other examples may be described.
