Abstract
A method for removing periodic noise pulses from a continuous audio signal generated in a pressurized air delivery system includes the steps of: detecting, in a time-windowed segment of the continuous audio signal generated in the pressurized air delivery system, a plurality of the periodic noise pulses having a pulse period and being representable in the form of a plurality of signal components combined by convolution; deconvolving the plurality of signal components to generate a plurality of deconvolved signal components; and removing at least a portion of the periodic noise pulses from the time-windowed segment of the continuous audio signal using the deconvolved signal components.
