Abstract
A multi-mode speech communication system is described that has different operating modes for different speech applications. A signal processing module is in communication with the speech applications and includes an input processing module and an output processing module. The input processing module processes microphone input signals to produce a set user input signals for each speech application that are limited to currently active system users for that speech application. The output processing module processes application output communications from the speech applications to produce loudspeaker output signals to the system users, wherein for each different speech application, the loudspeaker output signals are directed only to system users currently active in that speech application.
