Abstract

Various implementations include approaches for sound enhancement in far-field pickup. Certain implementations include a method of sound enhancement for a system including microphones for far-field pick up. The method can include: generating, using at least two microphones, a primary beam focused on a previously unknown desired signal look direction, the primary beam producing a primary signal configured to enhance the desired signal; generating, using at least two microphones, a reference beam focused on the desired signal look direction, the reference beam producing a reference signal configured to reject the desired signal; and removing, using at least one processor, components that correlate to the reference signal from the primary signal.
