Abstract: A noise cancellation system generates a noise cancellation signal from a signal representing ambient noise by signal processing. The signal processing applies a controllable gain value, and includes a high pass filter with a controllable cut-off frequency. A control block detects a wind amplitude. The cut-off frequency of the high pass filter is controlled based on the detected wind amplitude. A low pass function is applied to the detected wind amplitude, and the controllable gain is adjusted based on the output of the low pass function.

Abstract: A method of controlling a noise cancellation system, for use in an audio device, comprises: generating an ambient noise signal representative of ambient noise; filtering and applying gain to the ambient noise signal to generate a noise cancellation signal; passing the noise cancellation signal to a speaker; and generating an error signal from an error microphone, wherein the gain applied to the ambient noise signal is controlled based on the error signal, and the method further comprises: determining from the error signal whether the audio device is in an off-ear position, and controlling the noise cancellation system based on said determination as to whether the audio device is in the off-ear position.
