Claim Text:
1. A method for attenuating noise in a signal detected by a sound detector, comprising: converting the signal detected by the sound detector into a set of digital samples representing a single channel of acoustic data associated with a single microphone; storing the set of digital samples in a data storage device; performing a time-frequency transform on the set of digital samples to obtain transformed data; performing signal analysis on the transformed data, by a hardware processor, to identify wind noise in the transformed data, where the step of performing the signal analysis comprises: attenuating at least a portion of the wind noise identified in the transformed data at frequencies dominated by wind noise; where the discriminating between the wind noise and the signal of interest occurs on the output of the single microphone that sources the single channel of the acoustic data.
