Abstract

A device for measuring wind noise comprises at least a first microphone and a processor. A first signal and a second signal are obtained from the at least one microphone, the first and second signals reflecting a common acoustic input, and the first and second signals being at least one of temporally distinct and spatially distinct. The first signal is processed to determine a first distribution of the samples of the first signal. The second signal is processed to determine a second distribution of the samples of the second signal. From a difference between the first distribution and the second distribution a scalar non-binary metric reflecting an intensity of wind noise present in the first and second signals is derived, and output.
