Provided in the present disclosure are a voice processing method, an apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium, the method comprising: detecting the working state of a current call system, and when the working state is a two-end speaking state or a remote-end speaking state, performing compression processing on a subsequent remote-end voice signal, acquiring a near-end voice signal by means of a microphone, performing echo processing on the basis of the near-end voice signal and the compression-processed remote-end voice signal to obtain an echo-processed near-end voice signal and a remaining echo signal, performing non-linear suppression processing on the near-end voice signal and the remaining echo signal, and performing gain control on the suppression-processed near-end voice signal.

A howling detector is described that is configured to receive an input signal and to determine measure of the linearity of a logarithmic representation of the energy of the input signal. In some examples, this triggers gain adjustment (e.g. of a noise control unit) and, in some further examples, the amount of the gain adjustment may be based on an estimation of the maximum stable gain of a noise control unit.

A system includes participant nodes that unicast a voice stream to a master node and receive a multicast voice stream from the master node. The multicast voice stream may be a mixed voice stream mixing the voice streams of the participants. In this case, each participant performs echo cancellation on the multicast voice stream. Alternatively, the multicast voice stream may be a multiplexed voice stream multiplexing the voice streams of all participants. In this case, each participant de-multiplexes the multicast voice stream and generates a mixed voice stream that does not include that participant. Alternatively, the multicast voice stream received by each participant may be a multiplexed digital voice stream multiplexing multiple mixed streams including one mixed stream that does not include the voice stream of that participant. In this case, each participant de-multiplexes the multicast voice stream to obtain the mixed stream that does not include that participant.

A speaker device in one embodiment of the present invention includes a plurality of microphones including at least a first microphone and a second microphone, and a speaker unit including a vibrating surface, a distance between a predetermined position on the vibrating surface and the first microphone being equal to a distance between the predetermined position and the second microphone.

A controller for an acoustic echo canceller includes a noise estimator configured to estimate a level of noise that is comprised in a microphone signal relative to an echo component, estimated by the acoustic echo canceller, comprised in the microphone signal. The controller further includes a control module configured to control the acoustic echo canceller in dependence on that estimate.
