Abstract
Disclosed is a method and a headset for reducing pop-noise in voice communication between a user and a far-end device. The headset has a first, a second and a third electro-acoustic input transducer for reception of audio input signals. The headset also has a first beamformer to provide a voice signal. The first beamformer is configured to optimize the voice-to-background noise ratio. The headset comprises a second beamformer configured for providing a pop-noise signal. The pop-noise signal is based on the first input signal from the first input transducer, the second input signal from the second input transducer, and a third input signal from the third input transducer. The second beamformer is adaptively configured to cancel voice and background noise while not cancelling pop-noise. The headset compares the pop-noise signal to the voice signal to determine time periods and frequency bands having pop-noise.
