Personalized audio experience management and architecture for use in group audio communication
First Claim
1. A closed audio system for personalized audio experience management and audio clarity enhancement in group audio communication, the closed audio system comprising:
- a plurality of user equipment (UEs) with each UE receiving an audio input signal from each corresponding user; and
an audio signal combiner receiving the audio input signals from the plurality of UEs and generating a desired mixed audio output signal for each UE of the plurality of UEs;
wherein the mixed audio output signal for each UE is generated based at least on a selection input from each corresponding user;
wherein after receiving the audio input signals from the plurality of UEs, the audio signal combiner performs an audio clarity check to verify whether the audio input signal from each UE meets a clarity threshold; and
wherein the group audio communication further comprises at least one of;
a group hearing aid system;
a localized virtual conference room;
a geographically dynamic virtual conference room; and
a party line communication.

Abstract
A closed audio circuit is disclosed for personalized audio experience management and audio clarity enhancement. The closed audio circuit includes a plurality of user equipment (UEs) and an audio signal combiner for a group audio communication session. The UEs and the audio signal combiner form a closed audio circuit allowing a user to target another user to create a private conversation to prevent eavesdropping. The UEs receive user audio input signals and send the audio input signals to the audio signal combiner. The audio signal combiner receives the audio input signals from each UE and transfer desired mixed audio output signals to each of the UE.
