Abstract
Apparatuses and methods for selecting, for communicating, between signals provided by various pickups on the basis of a calculated signal to noise ratio (SNR) are disclosed. The various pickups may include a microphone and a vibration sensor. Signals from the microphone may be compared with signals from the vibration sensor by extracting a root-mean-square (RMS) profile for each, and comparing the RMS profiles to determine an SNR estimate for the microphone signal. The microphone signal may be selected if the SNR estimate is below a predetermined threshold, otherwise the vibration sensor signal may be selected. The vibration sensor signal may be subject to further processing if selected to approximate the microphone signal.
