Abstract: Systems and methods are described for clamping a headset in a calibration system using a clamp system that includes a clamp, platform, and one or more spindles (e.g., cushion spindles) to minimize or eliminate issues associated with positioning of headsets. The clamp system comprises a mount having a receptacle. When a device is introduced to the mount the receptacle receives at least a portion of a device. The clamp system includes a clamp attached to the mount and having a first arm rotateably coupled to a second arm that controls the first arm between an open position and a closed position. A platform and at least one spindle are connected to the first arm. When the device is present in the receptacle and the first arm is in the closed position the spindle contacts the device and seats or secures the device in the receptacle.

Abstract: A method and system for removing acoustic noise removal (Fig. 5) from human speech is described. Acoustic noise is removed regardless of noise type, amplitude, or orientation. The system includes a processor (30) coupled among microphones (1, 2) and a voice activation detection ("V AD") element (104). The processor executes denoising algorithms that generate transfer functions. The processor (30) receives acoustic data from the microphones (1, 2) and data from the VAD (104) indicates voicing activity and when the VAD indicates no voicing activity. The transfer functions are used to generate a denoised data stream.

Abstract: A microphone array is described for use in ultra-high acoustical noise environments. The microphone array includes two directional close-talk microphones. The two microphones are separated by a short distance so that one microphone picks up more speech than the other. The microphone array can be used along with an adaptive noise removal program to remove a significant portion of noise from a speech signal of interest

Abstract: A method and system are provided for acoustic noise removal from human speech, wherein noise is removed without respect to noise type, amplitude, or orientation. The system includes microphones and a voice activity detection (VAD) data stream coupled among a processor. The microphones receive acoustic signals and the VAD produces a signal including a binary one when speech (voiced and unvoiced) is occurring and a binary zero in the absence of speech. The processor includes denoising algorithms that generate transfer functions. The transfer functions include a transfer function generated in response to a determination that voicing information is absent from the received acoustic signal during a specified time period. The transfer functions also include transfer functions generated in response to a determination that voicing information is present in the acoustic signal during a specified time period. At least one denoised acoustic data stream is generated using the transfer functions.

Abstract: Embodiments include a device comprising a pipe that includes at least one section that spans between a first end and a second end of the pipe. A receptacle is positioned in the pipe a first distance from the first end and a second distance from the second end. The receptacle receives an electronic device having microphones that are to be calibrated and secures the microphones a third distance inside an inside surface of the pipe. An adapter is connected to the first end, and the adapter connects a loudspeaker to the pipe. The pipe controls an acoustic energy experienced by the microphones so that each microphone receives equivalent acoustic energy.

Abstract: A wireless conference call telephone system uses body-worn wired or wireless audio endpoints comprising microphones or microphone arrays and, optionally, speakers. These audio-endpoints, which include headsets, pendants, and clip-on microphones to name a few, are used to capture the user's voice and the resulting data may be used to remove echo and environmental acoustic noise. Each audio-endpoint transmits its audio to the telephony gateway, where noise and echo suppression can take place if not already performed on the audio-endpoint, and where each audio-endpoint's output can be labeled, integrated with the output of other audio-endpoints, and transmitted over one or more telephony channels of a telephone network. The noise and echo suppression can also be done on the audio-endpoint. The labeling of each user's output can be used by the outside caller's phone to spatially locate each user in space, increasing intelligibility.
