Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for signal processing are described. Generally, as provided for by the described techniques, a wearable device to receive an input audio signal from one or more outer microphones, an input audio signal from one or more inner microphones, and a bone conduction signal from a bone conduction sensor based on the input audio signals. The wearable device may filter the bone conduction signal based on a set of frequencies of the input audio signals, such as a low frequency portion of the input audio signals. For example, the wearable device may apply a filter to the bone conduction signal that accounts for an error in the input audio signals. The wearable device may add a gain to the filtered bone conduction signal and may equalize the filtered bone conduction signal based on the gain. The wearable device may output an audio signal to a speaker.
