Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for detecting the presence of a noise signal within a noise measurement field, where the noise measurement field includes a noise signal emanating from a noise source, and where the noise signal is mixed with extraneous noise existing within the noise measurement field. The method involves using a plurality of acoustic transducers arranged in a plurality of arrays to monitor the noise measurement field at a plurality of spatially separated locations. Outputs of the transducers are sampled to generate time series data. The time series data is processed to identify whether the noise signal is present.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for detecting the presence of a noise signal within a noise measurement field, where the noise measurement field includes a noise signal emanating from a noise source at a specific known spatial location within the noise measurement field, and where the noise signal is mixed with extraneous noise existing within the noise measurement field, the method comprising: configuring a plurality of acoustic transducers arranged in first and second arrays to…
