Performance limits in subband beamforming

S.E. Nordholm, I. Claesson, N. Grbic
2003 IEEE Transactions on Speech and Audio Processing  
A hands-free communication set-up includes at least one loudspeaker and one microphone in the same environment. This means that the microphone(s) are subject to several near-end disturbances.  ...  This paper analyses subband beamforming schemes mainly aimed at speech enhancement and acoustic echo suppression applications such as hands-free telephony for both mobile and office environments, internet  ...  In all calculations it is assumed that one desired source and one interfering source, corresponding to a hands-free loudspeaker, are present.  ...
