Patent number: 10805725Abstract: An active noise cancellation system for reducing unwanted noise in a target area by attenuating a disturbance noise signal (d(n)), which is the remaining noise in the target area originated from an ambient noise signal (x(n)) present in the vicinity of the target area that is transferred to the target area via a main path described by a transfer function P(z)), the active noise cancellation system including a processing unit that implements an ANC-controller which is configured to provide a control signal (y?(n)) for controlling a speaker in the target area in order to generate an acoustic signal (y(n)) that destructively overlaps with the disturbance noise signal (d(n)) and thereby attenuates the same.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2019Date of Patent: October 13, 2020Assignee: Helmut-Schmidt-Universitaet Universitaet der Bundeswehr HamburgInventors: Piero Rivera Benois, Udo Zoelzer
