Abstract

The technology described in this document can be embodied in a method that includes receiving an input signal representing audio captured by one or more sensors of an active noise reduction (ANR) headphone, and generating, based on the input signal, a first signal by a compensator disposed in an ANR signal flow path. The method also includes determining one or more characteristics of the first signal, and selecting, based on the one or more characteristics of the first signal, a plurality of filter coefficients for a digital filter disposed in series with the compensator in the ANR signal flow path. The filter coefficients are selected in accordance with a target frequency response of the digital filter. The method further includes generating, by processing the input signal using the plurality of filter coefficients of the digital filter, a feedback control signal for an electroacoustic transducer of the ANR headphone.
