Abstract: A wireless communication headset for reducing wind-induced noise and providing improved microphone performance under a variety of different ambient noise conditions includes a housing defining a cavity and first and second apertures in communication with the cavity. A microphone disposed within the cavity has a transducer oriented along an axis, whereby the first and second apertures are located on opposite sides of the axis. A baffle surrounds the transducer and is oriented along the axial direction. Optionally, a shroud at a forward end of the baffle defines an air space ahead of the transducer. Further still, a liner such as a foam layer or swatch of fabric is disposed within the cavity, providing a diffuse acoustic path between the first and second apertures and the transducer so as to prevent wind flow from directly impinging upon the microphone.
