Abstract:
A system for generating and injecting acoustic interference signals to mitigate undesired acoustic noise over a target zone. M pickup sensors pick up acoustic noise signals from one or more noise sources in real time and generate M noise signals, M>1. A beam forming network includes M acoustic beam forming modules to process the M noise signals respectively and generate N acoustic interference signals. N acoustic injectors condition, amplify and inject the N acoustic interference signals over the target zone, N>1. Each of the M acoustic beam forming modules includes a 1-to-N distribution network to transform a respective one of the M noise signals into N signals, and N finite-impulse-response filters to perform amplitude and phase weighting on the respective N signals and generate N intermediate signals which are combined respectively with corresponding intermediate signals generated by remaining M−1 acoustic beam forming modules to generate the N acoustic interference signals.

Claim (Index 17):
The method of  claim 14  further comprising:\n providing a diagnostic network that comprises diagnostic probes placed at sampling locations in or near the target zone, the diagnostic probes being configured to measure signal strengths of selected acoustic signals at the sampling locations, the diagnostic network being configured to generate a plurality of cost functions based on the measured signal strengths, a total cost function being a sum of the cost functions.
