Blumino: The First Fully Integrated Analog SiPM With On-Chip Time Conversion

Edoardo Charbon, Andrei Ardelean, Emanuele Ripiccini, Andrada Alexandra Muntean, Esteban Venialgo Araujo

Blumino is the first analog silicon photomultiplier with integrated amplifier, comparator and time-to-digital converter (TDC). The combination of a photodetector together with on-chip readout circuitry enables system-level advantages, such as internal para ...

Subjective evaluation of a spatialization feature for hearing aids by normal-hearing and hearing-impaired subjects

Hervé Lissek, Xavier Gigandet, Gilles André Courtois

Remote microphone systems significantly improve speech intelligibly performance offered by hearing aids. The voice of the speaker(s) is captured close to the mouth by a microphone, then wirelessly sent to the hearing aids. However, the sound is rendered in ...

Spatial Sound Localization via Multipath Euclidean Distance Matrix Recovery

Hervé Bourlard, Philip Neil Garner, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh, Saeid Haghighatshoar

A novel localization approach is proposed in order to find the position of an individual source using recordings of a single microphone in a reverberant enclosure. The multipath propagation is modeled by multiple virtual microphones as images of the actual ...

Enabling Speech Applications using Ad Hoc Microphone Arrays

Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh

Microphone arrays are central players in hands-free speech interface applications. The main duty of a microphone array is capturing distant-talking speech with high quality. A microphone array can acquire the desired speech signals selectively by leading t ...

Nested Surface Coils for Multinuclear NMR

Rolf Gruetter

This article introduces the design of surface coils for multinuclear applications. The relative sensitivities of several NMR-visible nuclei of biological interest are considered, and the motivations to operate an RF coil at multiple frequencies, both seque ...

Method And Device For Removing Echo In A Multi-Channel Audio Signal

Christof Faller

Acoustic echo control and noise suppression is an important part of any "handsfree" telecommunication system, such as telephony or audio or video conferencing systems. Bandwidth and computational complexity constraints have prevented that stereo or multi-c ...

Observations on Multi-Band Asynchrony in Distant Speech Recordings

Guillaume Lathoud

Whenever the speech signal is captured by a microphone distant from the user, the acoustic response of the room introduces significant distortions. To remove these distortions from the signal, solutions exist that greatly improve the ASR performance (what ...
