In the domain of active noise control, it is an interesting story of reversals. Small is big. Low-frequency environments require big, ‘active’ treatment. Hence, it is of great importance to make the big treatment set-ups lightweight and small in size so that the ‘wavelength’ is matched.

So much spoken about them- what are low-frequency noisy environments, after all?

Here is a brief:
Exhaust mufflers used in internal combustion engine
Headphones used inside an aircraft
Headphones used in an aircraft cabin/cockpit noise reduction
Headphones used in an auto/moto racing
Ambulances
Dishwashers
Vibration isolators used to silence engines
Vibration isolatiors used to protect electronics from vibration and       shock
 
There are of course more. However, these are the most common active noisy environments humans’ ears frequent with. Apparently, the application areas are more on industrial front – driven primarily by hearing safety concerns – though other areas such as electronics and home too are slowly getting active. Cost of treatment remains the main deterrent though.

Having known the sources of active noise, it is pertinent to know how the domain is classified for ease of address and solution. No more complexities. Watch this space next week...
