Abstract
Various aspects include active noise reduction (ANR) headsets and methods of controlling such headsets. In some implementations, a headset includes: at least one electro-acoustic transducer; a power source for powering the at least one electro-acoustic transducer; and a control circuit configured to apply active noise reduction (ANR) to environmental sound using the at least one electro-acoustic transducer, sample voltage drops across the power source, and adjust a compressor threshold for the ANR based on the sampled voltage drops across the power source.
