2. List of discontinued Bose headphones - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_discontinued_Bose...

   It included a noise cancelling function and was powered either by NiCad batteries (with a battery life of 16 hours on radio pilot and 7.5 hours on cruise control sound) or by power from the aircraft. Series II aviation headsets are distinguished by the dirty windows on the earmuffs or by noting that the off/on switch and down control are ...

3. Active noise control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control

   Active noise control ( ANC ), also known as noise cancellation ( NC ), or active noise reduction ( ANR ), is a method for reducing unwanted sound by the addition of a second sound specifically designed to cancel the first. The concept was first developed in the late 1930s; later developmental work that began in the 1950s eventually resulted in ...

4. Noise-canceling microphone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise-canceling_microphone

   In a noisy environment, both microphones receive noise at a similar level, but the primary mic receives the desired sounds more strongly. Thus if one signal is subtracted from the other (in the simplest sense, by connecting the microphones out of phase) much of the noise is canceled while the desired sound is retained.

5. Noise-cancelling headphones - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise-cancelling_headphones

   Noise-cancelling headphones often combine sound isolation with ANC to maximize the sound reduction across the frequency spectrum. Noise cancellation can also be used without sound isolation to make wanted sounds (such as voices) easier to hear. Noise cancellation to eliminate ambient noise is never passive because of the circuitry required, so ...

6. Mains hum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_hum

   Mains hum, electric hum, cycle hum, or power line hum is a sound associated with alternating current which is twice the frequency of the mains electricity. The fundamental frequency of this sound is usually double that of fundamental 50/60 Hz, i.e., 100/120 Hz, depending on the local power-line frequency. The sound often has heavy harmonic ...

7. Dolby noise-reduction system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_noise-reduction_system

   The Dolby B system is effective from approximately 1 kHz upwards; the noise reduction that is provided is 3 dB at 600 Hz, 6 dB at 1.2 kHz, 8 dB at 2.4 kHz, and 10 dB at 5 kHz. The width of the noise reduction band is variable, as it is designed to be responsive to both the amplitude and the frequency distribution of the signal.
