Abstract:
In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a processing circuit may implement an adaptive filter, a first signal injection portion which injects a first additional signal into a first frequency range content source audio signal, and a second signal injection portion which injects a second additional signal into a second frequency range content source audio signal, wherein the first additional signal and the second additional signal are substantially different. The adaptive filter may have a response that generates the antinoise signal from the reference microphone signal to reduce the presence of the ambient audio sounds at the acoustic output, wherein the response of the adaptive filter is shaped in conformity with the reference microphone signal and the error microphone signal by adapting the response of the adaptive filter to minimize the ambient audio sounds in the error microphone signal, wherein the antinoise signal is combined with at least the first frequency range content source audio signal.
Abstract:
Calibrating devices communicating on the shared bus can assist in reducing conflicts on the bus and the resulting loss of data. For example, the timing of transmission of data from one device to another device on the shared bus may be adjusted to compensate for delays on the shared bus. For example, the transmitting device may adjust transmission to an earlier time than the programmed time by an amount proportional to a known delay, such that the signal arrives at a receiving device at the programmed time. When the adjustment is not able to obtain a desired alignment or would cause conflicts on the shared data bus, the timing may be adjusted to delay the transmission, rather than advance the transmission, such that the adjusted transmission time results in the receipt of the signal at the receiving device in an unused time window after the programmed time.
Abstract:
An active noise cancellation (ANC) system including a selectable decimation rate decimator that receives an oversampled digital input and has an input that selects the decimation rate, a filter that receives an output of the decimator, and a selectable interpolation rate interpolator that receives an output of the filter and has an input that selects the interpolation rate. The selectable decimation rate decimator and the selectable interpolation rate interpolator operate to provide a selectable sample rate for the filter based on the selected decimation and interpolation rates. The filter may be an anti-noise filter, feedback filter, and/or a filter that models an acoustic transfer function of the ANC system. Rate selection may be static, or dynamically controlled based on battery or ambient noise level. A ratio of the decimation rate and the interpolation rate is fixed independent of the dynamically controlled decimation and interpolation rates.

Abstract:
An acoustic signal processing system and method includes classification technology to classify a relationship between at least two sound components of a received sound signal. The exemplary sound components are ambient noise and localized noise. The classification technology dynamically determines a classification value that represents the relationship between the sound components and processes the sound signal in accordance with the acoustic signal classification to modify the sound signal. In at least one embodiment, dynamic classification of the relationship between sound components in a sound signal and responsive signal processing improve performance of systems, such as an active noise cancellation (ANC) system, by, for example, attenuating at least one of the sound components and/or enhancing at least one of the sound components. In an ANC system context, the sound components generally include noise components such as ambient noise and noise localized to a microphone.
