Transducer apparatus embodying non-audio sensors for noise-immunity

The invention relates to a transducer apparatus to provide audio sensing with high noise immunity in an acoustically-noisy environment. The invention replaces the prior-art acoustic microphone with a non-acoustic sensor to sense free-field and/or surface vibrations or movement that resemble or arising from the voice of the user. The non-acoustic sensor includes an accelerometer, shock sensor, gyroscope, vibration microphone, or vibration sensor. There are several adaptions and embodiments of the invention including improving the polar directivity of the non-acoustic sensors and application of a multiplicity of non-acoustic sensors and acoustic microphones.

VIBRATION SENSOR

The present disclosure provides a vibration sensor. The vibration sensor may include a vibration receiver and an acoustic transducer. The vibration receiver may include a housing, a limiter and a vibration unit. The housing and the acoustic transducer may form an acoustic cavity. The vibration unit may be located in the acoustic cavity to separate the acoustic cavity into a first acoustic cavity and a second acoustic cavity. The acoustic transducer may be acoustically connected to the first acoustic cavity. The housing may be configured to generate a vibration based on an external vibration signal. The vibration unit may change an acoustic pressure within the first acoustic cavity in response to the vibration of the housing, such that the acoustic transducer generates an electrical signal. The vibration unit may include a mass element and an elastic element. A first side of the elastic element may be connected around a side wall of the mass element. A second side of the elastic element may be connected with the limiter.

Method for preprocessing speech for digital audio quality improvement

Preprocessing speech signals from an indirect conduction microphone. One exemplary method preprocesses the speech signal in two stages. In stage one, an external speech sample is characterized using an auto regression model, and coefficients from the model are convolved with the internal speech signal from the indirect conduction microphone to produce a pre-conditioned internal speech signal. In stage two, a training sound is received by the indirect conduction microphone and filtered through a low-pass filter. The result is then modeled using auto regression, and inverted to produce an inverted filter model. The pre-conditioned internal speech signal is convolved with the inverted filter model to remove negative or undesirable acoustic characteristics and loss from the speech signal from the indirect conduction microphone.
