Zusammenfassung:A system and method for dynamically optimizing the analog gain for a microphone in a telephone terminal operable in handsfree mode. The system makes use of a process whereby a relatively inexpensive analog to digital converter is used to meet gain requirements so as to accommodate the loudest echo through transmit path while maintaining an acceptable signal to noise ratio for the quietest talker. The system digital signal processor in conjunction with speech activity detection means is used to provide an optimum microphone gain under all circumstances.
