  2. 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 ...

  3. Conductive hearing loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conductive_hearing_loss

    Conductive hearing loss (CHL) occurs when there is a problem transferring sound waves anywhere along the pathway through the outer ear, tympanic membrane (eardrum), or middle ear ( ossicles ). If a conductive hearing loss occurs in conjunction with a sensorineural hearing loss, it is referred to as a mixed hearing loss.

  4. Noise-induced hearing loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise-induced_hearing_loss

    Otorhinolaryngology, audiology. Noise-induced hearing loss ( NIHL) is a hearing impairment resulting from exposure to loud sound. People may have a loss of perception of a narrow range of frequencies or impaired perception of sound including sensitivity to sound or ringing in the ears. [1] When exposure to hazards such as noise occur at work ...

  6. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    The plots at the bottom show the signal intensity in the indicated row of the image (red: original signal, blue: with noise). Signal-to-noise ratio ( SNR or S/N) is a measure used in science and engineering that compares the level of a desired signal to the level of background noise. SNR is defined as the ratio of signal power to noise power ...

  7. Sensorineural hearing loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensorineural_hearing_loss

    Sensorineural hearing loss ( SNHL) is a type of hearing loss in which the root cause lies in the inner ear, sensory organ ( cochlea and associated structures), or the vestibulocochlear nerve ( cranial nerve VIII). SNHL accounts for about 90% of reported hearing loss. [citation needed] SNHL is usually permanent and can be mild, moderate, severe ...

  8. Active noise control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control

    Noise control is an active or passive means of reducing sound emissions, often for personal comfort, environmental considerations, or legal compliance. Active noise control is sound reduction using a power source. Passive noise control is sound reduction by noise-isolating materials such as insulation, sound-absorbing tiles, or a muffler rather ...
