Abstract (en)

A method comprising: receiving an input signal captured by one or more sensors associated with an ANR headphone; determining, by one or more processing devices in an ANR signal flow path, one or more characteristics of a first portion of the input signal; automatically adjusting, by the one or more processing devices based on the one or more characteristics of the first portion of the input signal, a gain of a variable gain amplifier (VGA) disposed in the ANR signal flow path; selecting, by the one or more processing devices, a set of coefficients for a tunable digital filter disposed in the ANR signal flow path, wherein the set of coefficients are selected in accordance with the gain of the VGA; and processing a second portion of the input signal in the ANR signal flow path using the adjusted gain and selected set of coefficients to generate a second output signal for an electroacoustic transducer of the ANR headphone.
