US Patent 11961532 Bone conduction headphone speech enhancement systems and methods

Systems and methods for enhancing a headset user's own voice include at least two outside microphones, an inside microphone, audio input components operable to receive and process the microphone signals, a voice activity detector operable to detect speech presence and absence in the received and/or processed signals, and a cross-over module configured to generate an enhanced voice signal. The audio processing components includes a low frequency branch comprising low pass filter banks, a low frequency spatial filter, a low frequency spectral filter and an equalizer, and a high frequency branch comprising highpass filter banks, a high frequency spatial filter, and a high frequency spectral filter.
