Abstract

The present invention relates to an echo reduction method implemented with a multi-sensor sound pickup device (8) forming an antenna (10), and a sound playback device (13). The method consists in subjecting the output signals ym(t) from the sensors (11m) to complex weights w(f), said weights w(f) being calculated by maximizing the directivity factor Fd(f) under constraints at low frequencies and in the near field. The invention also provides an echo reduction apparatus (6). The apparatus comprises: a multi-sensor sound pickup device (8) forming an antenna (10); means for calculating a first constraint; and means for calculating a second constraint.
