Audio enhancement via beamforming and multichannel filtering of an input audio signal
Abstract:
Enhancing audio content based on application of different gains to different frequency bands of an audio signal is disclosed. Audio information contained in an input signal can undergo beamforming to provide an initial adjustment to the audio information, e.g., noise reduction, etc. In an embodiment beamforming can comprise double-beamforming in which first audio information is adjusted based on second audio information and the second audio information is adjusted based on the first audio information. Different gains can be applied to content in determined frequency bands, resulting in an amplified signal. In some embodiments, the gains can be related to hearing sensitivity of a listener, e.g., via a hearing sensitivity model. The amplified audio information from each frequency band can then be recombined. The recombined signal can be level limited and subjected to further digital and analog gains. The resulting output, e.g., enhanced audio, can be individually adapted for a listener.
