Scalability – from 1 to N microphones – AMAP technology is scalable from 1 to multiple microphone systems using the same core signal processing. This enables developers to employ AMAP in a variety of configurations using the same software base. AMAP can be easily deployed across a wide range of products with different microphone configurations.

Efficient computation for low power consumption – emphasis has been placed upon computation efficiency which results in the lowest power consumption possible for the features offered by AMAP. This computational efficiency allows AMAP to be deployed on a wide variety of platforms including CODECS with DSP, shared DSP and even ARM based architectures, all providing low power consumption profiles.

Flexible latency voice/audio processing – the AMAP process has flexible and programmable latency options allowing the technology to be employed in any communication network from LTE, 3G to VoIP networks. No special accommodation is required for AMAP to be used in these networks.

Fast convergence for noise suppression – resulting in excellent speech quality with minimal artefacts and noise leakage into the clean voice signal path.

Multiple spatial regions for voice isolation – enables multi-user applications with benefits of advanced voice processing for all users. Allows development of specialized audio and voice processing features such as dual user “desktop speakerphone” or “interview” mode with multiple users.

With AMAP Fortemedia provides critical communication enhancement functions for mobile devices functions consisting of:

Ambient Noise Suppression – AMAP accurately tracks the voice signal of interest and provides strong ambient noise suppression.

Far Field Voice Pickup – for conferencing applications of all types, AMAP provides improved pick up and isolation of remote voices. AMAP allows effective voice pickup to distances of 3 meters and greater. Additionally, using the multiple microphones to establish a voice pick up zone that is remote from the device, AMAP provides improved speech recognition for hands-free consumer devices of all types – mobile phones, tablets, PCs, auto infotainment systems, wearable devices, gaming and TV systems.

Improved Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) – Fast-converging linear filtering and smooth non-linear spectral modification constitute proprietary AMAP AEC/Noise Suppression technologies that result in excellent acoustic echo cancellation performance.
