Abstract
A method for execution by a computing device includes determining to implement a noise prediction and cancellation operation for a touch signal associated with a touch sensor. The method continues during a first time period with turning off a transmitter associated with the touch sensor and obtaining a noise sample of noise associated with the touch sensor, wherein after the first time period is over, the transmitter is turned on. The method continues with generating a noise estimate of the noise based on the noise sample. The method continues during a second time period with obtaining a reduced noise touch signal associated with the touch sensor based on the noise estimate and determining touch data representing a touch of the touch screen based on the reduced noise touch signal, wherein the reduced noise touch signal is produced by subtracting the noise estimate from a current sample of the touch signal.
