  • Smartphone Speakerphone Mode With Beam Steering Isolation

    Abstract: A smartphone selectively supports a telephone call in a handset mode or a speakerphone mode by enabling or disabling microphones and speakers integrated in the smartphone. In the speakerphone mode, plural microphones determine a direction of a participant of a speakerphone telephone call so that audio of the speakerphone telephone call from plural speakers of the smartphone is beam steered towards the participant.
