NOISE REDUCTION

A method of reducing noise in an acoustic system, the method comprising at a first user terminal: receiving an audio signal from at least one further user terminal over a network; executing a communication client on a processing unit, the client configured so as when executed to: supply the audio si...

Zusammenfassung:A method of reducing noise in an acoustic system, the method comprising at a first user terminal: receiving an audio signal from at least one further user terminal over a network; executing a communication client on a processing unit, the client configured so as when executed to: supply the audio signal to an audio signal processing module of the first user terminal, wherein the processing module processes the audio signal, whereby a level of gain is applied to the audio signal, and outputs a processed audio signal to a speaker; estimate a noise level of the audio signal and the processed audio signal and estimate the gain applied by the processing module taking into account both the noise level estimates; selectively apply a system gain reduction step to at least one of the audio signal and an audio signal received via a microphone, based on at least the estimated gain.
