Abstract
A one-piece two-way voice communication earset is situated in or at the ear of the user and is operated hands-free. It includes either two separated microphones having their outputs combined or a single bidirectional microphone. In either case, the earset treats the user's voice as consisting of out-of-phase signals that are not canceled, but treats ambient noise, and any incidental feedback of sound from received voice signals, as consisting of signals more nearly in-phase that are canceled or greatly reduced in level. The microphones are preferably electret microphones. In addition, a logarithmic amplification circuit reduces residual ambient noise during non-speaking intervals. The earset includes a receiver coupled to a communication medium and a speaker coupled to the receiver for emitting sound from received voice signals primarily to the user's ear canal. A transmitter, a part of the earset also coupled to the communication medium and located outside the ear canal, houses the two microphones or the one bidirectional microphone.
