US Patent 8965005 Transmission of noise compensation information between devices

One or more microphones of a first devices receive a first audio. The first device generates a first audio signal from the received first audio. The first device analyzes the first audio signal to determine noise characteristics included in the first audio received by the first device. The first device generates noise compensation information based at least in part on the noise associated with the first audio. The first device transmits the noise compensation information to at least one of a second device or a third device that is intermediate to the first device and the second device. The first device receives a second audio signal generated by the second device, wherein the second audio signal is based at least in part on the noise compensation information transmitted by the first device. The first device then outputs the second audio signal to a speaker of the first device.
