  • Publication number: 20230421956
    Abstract: An example method of operation may include receiving audio data at one or more microphones disposed in a corresponding plurality of network devices, identifying amplitude values of the audio data at each of the plurality of network devices, and each of the amplitude values identified at each of the plurality of network devices are different from each other of the amplitude values, determining at each of the plurality of network devices a location of the audio data based on a direction and amplitude of the received audio data, modifying the audio data for output via a plurality of loudspeakers disposed in each of the plurality of network device, and outputting, via the plurality of loudspeakers, the modified audio data, and each loudspeaker outputs different versions of the modified audio data.

  • Patent number: 4003006
    Abstract: An adaptive equalizer to compensate for the effects of frequency-selective fading on a microwave radio system. The equalizer includes two Bode-type bump networks and an AGC amplifier whose slope and gain are respectively controlled by pilot tones added to the message load. Importantly, the frequency characteristics of the two Bode networks are non-overlapping, thus ensuring stability.
