Adaptive speaker equalization
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A device, comprising:
- logic configured to;
detect information about a condition of a speaker in a communications device, process the information, load equalization logic based on the processed information, and apply the equalization logic to an input signal of the speaker when the information indicates that a frequency response for the speaker should be changed.

Abstract
A device may include logic configured to detect information about a condition of a speaker in a communications device. The logic may process the information, load equalization logic based on the processed information, and may apply the equalization logic to an input signal of the speaker when the information indicates that a frequency response for the speaker should be changed.

6. A method, comprising:
-
monitoring a speaker in a communications device during a communications session;
determining whether a portion of a frequency response for the speaker is within a determined limit;
retrieving an equalization signal from a memory in response to the determining; and
applying the equalization signal to an input signal of the speaker to modify the portion of the frequency response when the portion of the frequency response is outside the determined limit. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A mobile communications terminal comprising:
a housing comprising;
a speaker to provide audio signals to a user, a keypad to receive inputs from the user, a microphone to receive speech from the user, processing logic configured to;
receive an input from the speaker, keypad, microphone, housing, or another device, determine, based on the input, whether a frequency response for the speaker should be changed, and apply an equalization signal to the speaker when the frequency response should be changed, the equalization signal configured to alter the frequency response of the speaker. - View Dependent Claims (15)

16. A computer readable medium that stores instructions executable by a processing device, the computer readable medium comprising;
-
instructions to obtain information about a speaker in a communications device;
instructions to determine when a frequency response for the speaker is outside a preferred range;
instructions to identify an equalization instruction configured to produce an adjusted frequency response that is within the preferred range when applied to an input signal of the speaker that is present when the frequency response is outside the preferred range;
instructions to apply the identified equalization instruction to the input signal to produce an equalized input signal; and
instructions to determine whether the frequency response is outside the preferred range when the equalized input signal is applied.

17. A mobile communications terminal employing adaptive speaker equalization, the terminal comprising:
-
means for receiving information about a speaker operating in the terminal during a communications session;
means for determining whether a frequency response for the speaker is within a determined range;
means for loading an equalization file when the frequency response is outside the determined range; and
means for applying information in the equalization file to an input signal of the speaker to bring the frequency response within the determined range.
