Abstract: The present invention describes a method to calibrate an angular
measurement device using an acceleration measurement device. The angular
rate measurement device includes at least one angular measurement sensor
and is able to distinguish the direction and strength of the gravity.
The acceleration measurement device is fixed to the angular measurement
sensor. A level plane which is substantially perpendicular to the
gravity vector is determined by using the acceleration measurement
device in a first stationary position. Angular values are determined
during a displacement of the angular measurement sensor and the level
plane is again determined in a second stationary position. An angle
according to the level planes is determined by the acceleration
measurement device and is compared to an angle according to the
angular values. By performing the calibration method the scales
factor(s) of the angular measurement device and the strength and
direction of the gravity can be obtained and/or corrected.

Abstract: A power amplifier system (40) uses adaptive distribution of signals through an
amplifier architecture of parallel amplifier stages (26 a-d). For example, the power amplifier
system can adjust the operation of individual amplifier stages in the amplifier
arrangement, for example to reduce power handling capability of the amplifier stages
based on information of the signal to be amplified by the amplifier arrangement, such
as the power level. To take advantage of the adjusted operation of the amplifier
stages, the power amplifier system uses a variable power divider (48) to reapportion the
input signal power among the amplifier stages and at least one variable combiner (50) to
adaptively combine amplified signals from the amplifier stages in changing
proportions. As such, the power amplifier system is reconfigurable and/or can adapt
to changing conditions to provide improved performance and/or efficiency.

Abstract: Speech enhancement is provided in dual microphone noise reduction systems by including spectral subtraction algorithms using linear convolution, causal filtering and/or spectrum dependent exponential averaging of the spectral subtraction gain function. According to exemplary embodiments, when a far-mouth microphone is used in conjunction with a near-mouth microphone, it is possible to handle non-stationary background noise as long as the noise spectrum can continuously be estimated from a single block of input samples. The far-mouth microphone, in addition to picking up the background noise, also picks up the speaker's voice, albeit at a lower level than the near-mouth microphone. To enhance the noise estimate, a spectral subtraction stage is used to suppress the speech in the far-mouth microphone signal. To be able to enhance the noise estimate, a rough speech estimate is formed with another spectral subtraction stage from the near-mouth signal. Finally, a third spectral subtraction function is used to enhance the near-mouth signal by suppressing the background noise using the enhanced background noise estimate. A controller dynamically determines any or all of a first, second, and third subtraction factor for each of the first, second, and third spectral subtraction stages, respectively.
