Abstract: A system and method for analyzing a signal to monitor the dynamics of its magnitude and frequency characteristics over time. An electronic circuit for identifying feedback in an audio signal, formed in accordance with embodiments of the invention may comprise a feedback control block operable to determine a candidate frequency having potential feedback such that the feedback control block is further operable to perform an iterative analysis of the magnitude of the audio signal at the candidate frequency to determine the growth characteristics of the signal. The electronic circuit may further include a test filter block operable to deploy a test filter at a candidate frequency and a permanent filter block operable to deploy a permanent filter at the candidate frequency if the feedback control block determines that the growth characteristics of the signal at the candidate frequency comprises feedback characteristics after the test filter has been deployed.

Abstract: A system and method for analyzing a signal to identify one or more candidate frequencies that may have a potential feedback problem. An electronic circuit for identifying feedback in an audio signal, formed in accordance with embodiments of the invention, may comprise a feedback control block operable to: 1) determine a magnitude of a first dominant spectral component in a wide-band span of frequencies of a signal, 2) determine a magnitude of a second dominant spectral component in a mid-band span of frequencies of the signal, and 3) determine a magnitude of a third dominant spectral component in a narrow-band span of frequencies of the signal. The feedback control block may then further analyze the magnitude and frequency of the first, second, and third dominant spectral components to determine the presence of feedback characteristics in the signal.
