Abstract:
This application relates to an apparatus ( 300 ) for monitoring an operating temperature condition of a microphone device ( 100 ) having an acoustic port ( 110 ). The apparatus includes a spectrum peak detect block ( 301 ) for receiving a microphone signal (S MIC ) and determining, from the microphone signal, a resonance frequency (f H ) and a quality factor (Q H ) of a resonance ( 202 ) associated with the acoustic port of the microphone. A condition monitoring block ( 302 ) is configured to determine any change in resonance frequency and quality factor with respect to respective reference values of resonance frequency and quality factor and to determine a temperature condition for the air temperature within the acoustic port based on said determined changes.

Claim (Index 17):
An apparatus as claimed in  claim 1  comprising a noise reduction block configured to process the microphone signal based on at least one characteristic of said resonance associated with the acoustic port of the microphone so as to reduce noise in the processed microphone signal due to said resonance.
