  • Patent number: 11593610
    Abstract: An aircraft noise monitoring system uses a set of geographically distributed noise sensors to receive data corresponding to events captured by the noise sensors. Each event corresponds to noise that exceeds a threshold level. For each event, the system will receive a classification of the event as an aircraft noise event or a non-aircraft noise event. It will then use the data corresponding to the events and the received classifications to train a convolutional neural network (CNN) in a classification process. After training, when the system receives a new noise event, it will use the CNN to classify the new noise event as an aircraft noise event or a non-aircraft noise event, and it will generate an output indicating whether the new noise event is an aircraft noise event or a non-aircraft noise event.
