Abstract: A system for vehicle exterior noise reduction, comprising: means for measuring amplitude and phase of exterior noise, which 5 propagates at least in part in a first direction from at least one exterior noise source of a vehicle, having an acoustic transmission path, wherein the exterior noise propagates at least in part under an underbody of the vehicle; means for calculating an out of phase signal based at least in part on the measured amplitude and phase of the exterior noise; and 10 means for generating an out of phase sound, based at least in part on the calculated out of phase signal, configured to cancel exterior noise; wherein the generated out of wave sound propagates at least in part in the first direction of the acoustic transmission path.
