Abstract: A method is for determining a wearing state of earphones. The method includes determining an onto-ears event or off-ears event experienced by the earphones on the basis of first data indicating motion of the earphones. The method further includes determining a first wearing state of the earphones on the basis of second data indicating proximity of the earphones to a user's skin. The method additionally includes determining the wearing state of the earphones on the basis of the determined onto-ears event or off-ears event and the first wearing state. This increases the accuracy of detection of the wearing state of the earphones. Based on this more accurately determined wearing state, the earphones can switch appropriately between a low power consumption mode and a normal operating mode, thereby improving the energy consumption of the earphones.

Abstract: A method for removing noise from a sound signal received by a microphone is provided. The method includes receiving a vibration signal from a vibration monitoring device mechanically connected to a loudspeaker, the vibration signal indicating vibration caused by a sound emitted by the loudspeaker. The method further includes receiving a sound signal received by the microphone. In addition, the method includes removing the vibration signal from the sound signal so as to remove noise from the sound signal. With the vibration signal from the vibration monitoring device, noise can be removed from the sound signal received by the microphone so as to achieve a satisfactory audio effect or accurate sound recognition.

Abstract: A method and device for determining a wearing state of an earphone, and a corresponding earphone, are provided. The method includes determining that the earphone has experienced a first event on the basis of first acceleration data from the earphone. In response to the first event, determining whether the earphone has experienced a second event on the basis of first angular velocity data from the earphone, The method further includes determining the wearing state of the earphone on the basis of a determination result for the two events. In this way, it is possible to accurately determine the wearing state of the earphone while reducing power consumption.
