    摘要: Disclosed is a signal processing apparatus including a surrounding sound signal acquisition unit, a NC (Noise Canceling) signal generation part, a cooped-up feeling elimination signal generation part, and an addition part. The surrounding sound signal acquisition unit is configured to collect a surrounding sound to generate a surrounding sound signal. The NC signal generation part is configured to generate a noise canceling signal from the surrounding sound signal. The cooped-up feeling elimination signal generation part is configured to generate a cooped-up feeling elimination signal from the surrounding sound signal. The addition part is configured to add together the generated noise canceling signal and the cooped-up feeling elimination signal at a prescribed ratio.

    摘要: [Object] To provide a sound processing device capable of effectively reducing ambient noise at low cost.[Solution] Provided is a sound processing device including: a first sound collector configured to collect a first noise signal from a noise source of noise leaking into a casing mounted to a user's ear; a first signal processing unit configured to form a first noise reduction signal used to reduce noise at a cancellation point on the basis of the first noise signal; a second signal processing unit configured to form a second noise reduction signal used to reduce noise at a cancellation point with respect to a first pseudo noise signal; an adder configured to add the first noise reduction signal and the second noise reduction signal; and a sound emitter configured to emit an output of the adder into the casing as sound. The first pseudo noise signal is a signal obtained by subtracting an output of the adder applied with a simulation transfer characteristic from an output of the first sound collector, the simulation transfer characteristic being obtained by simulating a transfer characteristic from the sound emitter to the first sound collector.

    摘要: [Object] To shorten a time until an effect is obtained after start of an adaptive process mode on an ambient sound.
    [Solution] Provided is a signal processing device including: a noise cancellation processing unit configured to generate a noise cancellation signal on the basis of a collected ambient sound; a signal processing unit configured to generate an ambient sound adapted signal by performing dynamic analysis related to a feature of the ambient sound and filtering the ambient sound; and a control unit configured to control a plurality of modes related to signal processing. The plurality of modes includes a first mode in which acoustic reproduction based on the noise cancellation signal is performed and a second mode in which acoustic reproduction based on the noise cancellation signal and the ambient sound adapted signal is performed, and the signal processing unit continues the dynamic analysis even in the first mode.
