Abstract
Adaptive noise cancellation systems and methods comprise a reference sensor operable to sense environmental noise and generate a corresponding reference signal, an error sensor operable to sense noise in a noise cancellation zone and generate a corresponding error signal, a noise cancellation filter operable to receive the reference signal and generate an anti-noise signal to cancel the environmental noise in the cancellation zone, an adaptation module operable to receive the reference signal and the error signal and adaptively adjust the anti-noise signal. The adaptation module includes a noise amplification control module operable to adaptively control noise amplification in at least one hiss region of the anti-noise signal, while achieving cancellation in non-hiss regions of the anti-noise signal.
