As noise pollution has become an increasingly major factor in the quality of urban life, noise cancelling methods started to be a relevant option for everyday life. Starting from the first active noise cancelling headphones build for aircraft industry in order to facilitate communication between pilots, in the last decade, active noise cancelling products have become more and more relevant. Factories, military and lately, civil usage of active noise cancelling technology transformed this industry and made it widely available. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate a practical way of active noise cancelling using LabVIEW. Two sound waves are guided through a cylindrical conduit and at a given position, by modifying the phase and amplitudes between the two signals, an amplitude close to zero is expected.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
