Abstract
A system and method are provided to reduce a structure's far field acoustic adiation signature. A plurality of acoustic sensors are positioned in the acoustic near field of the structure for measuring the near field acoustic radiation of the structure. A programmable controller generates a prediction of the structure's far field acoustic radiation signature using the near field acoustic radiation. The prediction is then used to generate a noise control signal applied to a plurality of acoustic radiators suspended within the structure. The radiators convert substantially all of the noise control signal to airborne acoustic energy within the structure.
