His innovative work focuses on enhancing audio systems and noise cancellation methods, which have applications in various electronic devices.
Latest Patents
One of Yu-Chieh Lai's latest patents is an audio system with conceal detection or calibration. This audio system includes a headset and a control device. The headset is designed to form a cavity along with the external auditory canal of the ear when mounted. The control device is coupled to the headset and is operable to provide a reference audio signal to the speaker, which is broadcasted toward the cavity. It further receives a sampled sound signal through the microphone, calculates an acoustic intensity distribution curve over frequencies, and determines whether the cavity has a leakage outlet based on this curve.
Another notable patent is a noise cancellation method for electronic devices. This method involves receiving an audio signal and applying a Fast Fourier Transform operation to generate a sound spectrum. It acquires a first spectrum corresponding to noise and a second spectrum corresponding to a human voice signal. The method estimates a center frequency based on these spectra and applies a high pass filtering operation to the sound spectrum accordingly.
