  • Patent number: 9749021
    Abstract: Embodiments of an acoustic feedback suppressor determine the energy in each of a plurality of frequency bands of frames of an audio signal. The energy in each of the plurality of frequency bands is compared to characteristic of human voice to determine that a present frame contains content that is not likely human voice and exhibits a characteristic of feedback. Upon determining that feedback is occurring, an adaptive gain reduction is applied to the band in which feedback is suspected to be occurring.
    Type: Grant
