摘要:
An active sound damper for compensating interference noise radiated by an interference noise source through a radiation opening of the interference source. The radiation opening of the interference noise source defines a radiation plane and has a center. The sound damper includes a speaker for radiating compensation sound for reciprocally effecting one of a weakening and a cancelling of the interference noise by interfering with the interference noise, the speaker having a speaker cone and defining a longitudinal axis. The speaker is further adapted to be mounted on the radiation opening such that its longitudinal axis is disposed to transversely intersect the radiation plane at the center of the radiation opening and such that the speaker cone radially surrounds the radiation opening.

A multi-channel active acoustic attenuation system for attenuating a correlated input acoustic wave has one or more output transducers introducing one or more respective canceling acoustic waves to attenuate the input acoustic wave and yield an attenuated output acoustic wave, one or more error transducers sensing the output acoustic wave and providing one or more error signals, and a plurality of adaptive filter channel models. Each channel model has a model input from a respective error transducer. One or more of the channel models also has a model input from at least one of the remaining channel models. Each channel model has an error input from one or more of the error transducers. Each channel model has a model output outputting a correction signal to a respective output transducer to introduce the respective canceling acoustic wave. The correction signal from one or more of the model outputs is also input to the model input of one or more of the remaining channel models.

A multi-channel active acoustic attenuation system has a plurality of adaptive filter channel models each of which is intraconnected to each of the remaining channel models such that each channel model has a model input from each of the remaining channel models. The correction signal from each model output to the respective output transducer is also input to each of the remaining channel models, and each channel model has an error input from each error transducer. A generalized system is provided for complex acoustic fields.

An air permeable sound grating for sound shielding. The grating consists of, or includes, volume changing elements which are controlled by properly positioned means, such as a microphone orientated toward the noise source, to effect change in volume of an adjacent noise transmitting medium, such as air, to effect such a anticyclic change in volume as to cause interference attenuation of the sound at the side of the grating facing away from the noise source. Such volume changing elements are spaced apart a distance less than the wavelength of the highest frequency sound to be shielded and may comprise a variety of means such as spaced heating wires, conductive coating upon a thermal and electrically insulating base, a closed capsule with membrane surfaces having vibration generating means operatively associated with said membrane, radiation generating means for discharging medium heating radiation of energy into the sound transmitting medium together with controls and reflectors for directing the volume changing means or energy to the desired zone to be shielded.

A device for attenuating noises generated by moving sources includes a set of arranged electroacoustic sources which emit an opposite antinoise wave in response to an incident wave as sensed and processed. The electroacoustic sources are arranged to preferably emit a synchronous antinoise wave having a radius of curvature approximating that of the incident wave.

An active noise and vibration cancellation system with broadband control capability. A broadband disturbance signal detector positioned within a closed compartment such as an aircraft cabin or vehicle passenger compartment provides a signal representative of the frequency spectrum and corresponding relative magnitude of a broadband signal emanating from a vibrational energy source to a controller. The controller receives the broadband disturbance signal as well as error signals from error sensors which, by virtue of adaptive filters within the controller, enhance the cancellation capability of the control signals produced by one or more actuators positioned within the compartment.

To protect a volume (2) arranged inside a room (3) in regard to outside noises E, use is made of an array of acoustic sensors (11.sub.j) receiving the noise E and arranged a distance A from the volume and of an array of acoustic sources (15.sub.k) arranged a distance B less than A from the volume and signals S are applied to these sources, these signals being summations of the double convolution products of the function E.sub.j (t) with two functions f.sub.ij (t) and g.sub.ik (-t) which are directly deducible from the impulse responses gathered, on the one hand, at the sensors (11.sub.j) from pulses emitted by the sources (10.sub.i) carried by a fictitious barrier (6) delimiting the volume and, on the other hand, at sensors (12.sub.i) stationed at the same places as these latter sources (10.sub.i), from pulses emitted by the above sources (15.sub.k).
摘要:
An exemplary sound reproducing, noise reducing method and system include supplying to a corresponding loudspeaker a useful signal that represents sound to be reproduced and an anti-noise signal that, when reproduced by the corresponding loudspeaker, reduces noise in the vicinity of the corresponding microphone. The method and system further include receiving audio input signals and processing the audio input signals to provide the useful signals so that the useful signals provide a more realistic sound impression for a listener wearing the helmet than the audio input signals.
