| Molex works on road noise cancelling on electric vehicles |
2/9/2023 |
|
Active noise cancellation (ANC) works by measuring the waveform of the unwanted sound and generating an equivalent inverted signal. This signal is then transmitted alongside the original. The two waveforms, being inverted images of each other, combine and are weakened by the effect of phase cancellation. This, then, reduces the amplitude of the original signal and thereby reduces the volume of the unwanted noise.”
