Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A compressor device for a compander system has a level detecting/control device and a pre-emphasis device for carrying out an adaptive pre-emphasis filtering. The invention is also directed to an expander device for a compander system with a level detecting/control device and a de-emphasis device for carrying out an adaptive de-emphasis filtering.
