ABSTRACT:
System and device for receiving spatially mixed signals by a plurality of sensors and accurately removing a signal from a particular direction. The system includes a beamformer for removing a signal coming from a particular direction by steering a null to the particular direction, a coefficient calculation unit for calculating a coefficient for correcting the gain of the spectrum of the signal from a sensor according to the directivity characteristic of the beamformer, a gain correction unit for correcting the signal spectrum from the sensor by the calculated correction coefficient, and a spectrum correction unit for correcting the signal spectrum outputted from the beamformer by the corrected sensor signal spectrum. A plurality of sensor signals are received and a signal from a particular direction is removed by the beamformer. The signal which has failed to be removed by the beamformer is removed by the spectrum correction unit at a later stage.
