Abstract

A system and method for enhancing communications through a phone. A voice communication is received from a user of the phone. A secondary signal is received from an environment in proximity to the phone. The secondary signal is processed to determine an inverse signal in response to receiving the secondary signal. The inverse signal is combined with the voice communication and the secondary signal to destructively interfere with the secondary signal for allowing a receiving party to more effectively communicate with the user.
