Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for stereophonic acoustic echo cancellation. The method includes collecting, at a same time, a first audio sample of an audio source from a first omnidirectional microphone and a second audio sample of the audio source from a second omnidirectional microphone. The method includes delaying the second audio sample by a first amount of time to yield a delayed second audio sample and combining the delayed second audio sample with the first audio sample to produce a first channel, then delaying the first audio sample by a second amount of time to yield a delayed first audio sample and combining the delayed first audio sample with the second audio sample to produce a second channel. Then the method includes outputting the first channel and the second channel as a stereo audio signal of the audio source.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

I claim: 1. A method comprising: collecting, at a same time, a first audio sample of an audio source from a first omnidirectional microphone and a second audio sample of the audio source from a second omnidirectional microphone; delaying the second audio sample by a first amount of time, to yield a delayed second audio sample; combining the delayed second audio sample with the first audio sample to produce a left channel {tilde over (X)} 1 (ω), wherein {tilde over (X)} 1 (ω)=S…
