Abstract

See full text

A method for estimating and minimizing a noise power level difference (NPLD) between a primary channel and a reference channel of an audio device, includes receiving, by a primary channel, an audio signal that has a speech signal level and a noise signal level; receiving, by a reference channel, the audio signal with another speech signal level and another noise signal level; using the reference channel to estimate the noise signal level in the primary channel by reducing the another speech signal level; and compensating for a difference between the noise signal level and the another noise signal level to minimize a noise power level difference NPLD between the primary channel and the reference channel.
