AUDIO ENHANCEMENT VIA OPPORTUNISTIC USE OF MICROPHONES

摘要

An audio processing system includes a group of microphones associated with a dynamic network of microphones and a receiver. The receiver is configured to identify a first signal received by a microphone in the plurality of microphones that is designated as a primary microphone, and identify a subset of microphones included in the plurality of microphones, where each microphone in the subset is associated with a respective signal corresponding to the first signal. The receiver is further configured to calculate a weighting factor for each microphone included in the subset based on the first signal and the respective signal and opportunistically establish a connection with a microphone associated with the dynamic network of microphones that is not included in the plurality of microphones; and, based on a signal received from this microphone, adjust a weighting factor for at least one of the microphones in the subset.

1. An audio processing system, comprising:
a plurality of microphones associated with a dynamic network of microphones; and a receiver coupled to the plurality of microphones and configured to:
identify a first signal received by a microphone included in the plurality of microphones that is designated as a primary microphone;identify a subset of microphones included in the plurality of microphones, wherein each microphone in the subset of microphones is associated with a respective signal that corresponds to the first signal;calculate a weighting factor for each microphone included in the subset of microphones based at least in part on the first signal and the respective signal;establish a connection with a first microphone associated with the dynamic network of microphones that is not included in the plurality of microphones; andadjust a weighting factor for at least one of the microphones included in the subset of microphones based on a signal received from the first microphone.
