Abstract: A system for detecting snoring. The system includes a first microphone to convert a first sound into a first signal, a second microphone to convert a second sound into a second signal, and a processor. The processor generates a third signal from the first and second signals that is representative of the first sound arriving at the first microphone and the second sound arriving at the second microphone to select first and second portions of the third signal, and to derive a metric from the second portion of the third signal. The first portion corresponds to the first sound arriving at the first microphone and the second sound arriving at the second microphone. The second portion contains only components of the first portion that have a frequency within a frequency range of interest. The metric indicates if the first portion of the third signal includes a component consistent with snoring.
