  2. Sound masking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_masking

    Sound masking is the inclusion of generated sound (commonly, though inaccurately, referred to as "white noise" or "pink noise") into an environment to mask unwanted sound. It relies on auditory masking. Sound masking is not a form of active noise control (noise cancellation technique); however, it can reduce or eliminate the perception of sound ...

  3. Active noise control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control

    A noise-cancellation speaker emits a sound wave with the same amplitude but with an inverted phase (also known as antiphase) relative to the original sound. The waves combine to form a new wave, in a process called interference , and effectively cancel each other out – an effect which is called destructive interference .

  4. Noise reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_reduction

    Noise reduction is the process of removing noise from a signal. Noise reduction techniques exist for audio and images. Noise reduction algorithms may distort the signal to some degree. Noise rejection is the ability of a circuit to isolate an undesired signal component from the desired signal component, as with common-mode rejection ratio.

  6. Talk:Noise-cancelling headphones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Noise-cancelling...

    If you're 8 cm away, you hear about the same background noise plus less than 1/4 of out of sync and distorted counter-noise. If you're a few steps away, you hear the background noise and nothing else. (I don't have a noise-cancelling earphone. I can't experiment.) You just don't sleep on other people's earphone cover.

  7. Soundproofing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soundproofing

    A pair of headphones being tested inside an anechoic chamber for soundproofing. Soundproofing is any means of impeding sound propagation.There are several methods employed including increasing the distance between the source and receiver, decoupling, using noise barriers to reflect or absorb the energy of the sound waves, using damping structures such as sound baffles for absorption, or using ...

  8. Impulse noise (acoustics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse_noise_(acoustics)

    An impulse noise filter can enhance the quality of noisy signals to achieve robustness in pattern recognition and adaptive control systems. A classic filter used to remove impulse noise is the median filter, at the expense of signal degradation. Thus it's quite common to get better performing impulse noise filters with model-based systems ...
