2 Constituents in the Far-Field Application

For a more accurate voice-activated system, far-field applications must obtain these elements, especially when used for a voice recognition application.

Table 2-1 explains constituents that must be used for a better voice recognition system.

Table 2-1 Constituents of Far-field Application
APPLICATION NEEDED SYSTEM SPECIFICATION NEEDED
  • Crystal clear
  • Distortion-free for audio capture
 Wide dynamic range microphone and ADC
Microphone close to speakers in loud, noisy environments
  • High AOP (Acoustic Overload Point)
  • Low THD (Total Harmonic Distortion even for very loud signal)
Far-field recording Low EIN (Equivalent Input Noise)
Portability
  • Small form factor
  • Low power consumption
