Download or read book Active Noise Control Primer written by Scott D. Snyder and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-25 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By providing all the basic knowledge needed to assess how useful active noise control will be for a given problem, this book assists in the designing, setting up, and tuning of an active noise-control system. Written for students who have no prior knowledge of acoustics, signal processing, or noise control but who do have a reasonable grasp of basic physics and mathematics, the text is short and descriptive, leaving all mathematical details and proofs concerning vibrations, signal processing and the like to more advanced texts or research monographs. The book can thus be used in independent study, in a classroom with laboratories, or in conjunction with a kit for experiment or demonstration. Topics covered include basic acoustics, human perception and sound, sound intensity and related concepts, fundamentals of passive noise- control strategies, basics of digital systems and adaptive controllers, and active noise control systems.

Download or read book Active Control of Sound written by P. A. Nelson and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes modern techniques for reducing the level of airborne noise through the introduction of sound radiated by additional secondary sources, bringing together the results of contemporary research in this area. It is the combination of the physical properties of sound fields and modern digital signal processing technology that has made the active control of sound a practical proposition in a number of important applications. The book covers both these aspects of the subject, initially at a fundamental level, and then in detail in later chapters. The structure of the book is such that it should be suitable for both those seeking a basic understanding of the subject and as a reference for researchers in the field. A key feature of the work is the unified presentation of material from the two disciplines of acoustics and signal processing.
