  • Publication number: 20180130482
    Abstract: An audio system includes a loudspeaker, a first microphone, an echo canceller, and a second microphone within the loudspeaker enclosure coupled to the loudspeaker. The first microphone provides an environmental acoustic signal to the echo canceller. The second microphone can be a high acoustic overload microphone and be placed in a back cavity of the speaker enclosure. A speaker signal is used to drive the loudspeaker, which may produce non-linear distortions in the acoustic output. The second microphone senses a signal that includes both the linear and non-linear distortions. This sensed signal is used to remove both the linear and the non-linear distortions from the environmental acoustic signal picked up from the first microphone and processed by the echo canceller.
