Method and apparatus for reducing distortion echo are provided. K-path amplification and pre-distortion process are performed to the downlink reference signal to obtain K-path pre-distorted signals. Afterwards, filtering is performed using the self-adaptive filters which correspond to the downlink reference signal x(t) and the K-path pre-distorted signals to obtain the filtering signals. Error signals are obtained by calculating differences between the target signal and each of the filtering signals. The minimum-value fusion process is performed to the error signals to obtain the residual signal which is then output as the final self-adaptive echo cancellation. In embodiments of the present disclosure, the residual signal is relatively small as the minimum-value fusion process is performed to the error signals. That is to say, echo loss is relatively great. Therefore, the method may provide echo loss with high amplitude under a situation that a speaker has relatively serious distortion.

A method of switching between noise reduction modes in multi-microphone mobile devices may include receiving a first sound signal at a first sound receiver and receiving a second sound signal at a second sound receiver. The method may also include determining a first power value associated with the first sound signal and determining a second power value associated with the second sound signal. The method may additionally include comparing the first power value to the second power value and switching between a single-microphone noise reduction mode and a dual-microphone noise reduction mode based on the comparison.

The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and an apparatus for reducing an echo, which apply a first stage adaptive filter to a downlink reference signal to obtain a first stage filtered signal and a first error signal; after performing a K-path gain process and a K-path pre-distortion process to the downlink reference signal, apply the at least one second stage adaptive filter to a K-path pre-distorted signal to obtain a second stage filtered signal and a second error signal; and perform a minimum value fusion process to the first error signal and the second error signal so as to obtain a residue signal, which is considered as a final output of adaptive echo cancellation. Accordingly, the present disclosure realizes steadily providing a relatively high echo loss under a circumstance that a speaker suffers a relatively great distortion.

Systems and methods for signal noise reduction. An input digital signal may be partitioned into a series of adjacent segments. The adjacent segments may be converted to a frequency domain representation. A particular spectral component of a particular segment may be compared to a related spectral component of a first segment adjacent the particular segment, and to a related spectral component of a second segment adjacent the particular segment. The particular spectral component may be modified upon a magnitude value of the particular spectral component satisfying at least one of a predetermined set of conditions.
