Definitions
- the present invention relates to an active noise control apparatus that controls acoustic characteristics of a predetermined space to desired characteristics.
- a television is generally installed on a television stand or stand.
- the television can be installed on a wall by thinning the television.
- the TV is installed on the wall, there is an advantage that the indoor space can be used effectively.
- the TV built-in speaker that is the sound source is closer to the wall surface than in the conventional installation method. For this reason, the sound leaked from the built-in speaker to the adjacent room becomes larger.
- FIG. 28 shows the sound transmission loss characteristic of a double structure of a gypsum board (12 cm thick) widely adopted as the inner wall structure of an apartment house as an example of the sound transmission loss characteristic of a general residential wall.
- the built-in speaker needs to be small and thin, but the small and thin speaker cannot output low-frequency sound at a sufficient level. For this reason, it has been difficult for recent wall-mounted televisions to provide powerful sounds compared to large-screen, high-definition images, which has made viewers feel uncomfortable. Therefore, in a space where viewers are present, conversely, raising the sound pressure level at a low frequency becomes a problem.
- Patent Document 1 discloses a configuration as a technique for realizing a desired sound output characteristic in a predetermined region and eliminating sound in a different predetermined region.
- FIG. 29 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a loudspeaker disclosed in Patent Document 1.
- the conventional loudspeaker includes a first signal processing unit 1a, a second signal processing unit 1b, a delay unit 2, a first sound source 3a, a second sound source 3b, and a first detector 4a. , A second detector 4b and an adder 5.
- the first signal processing means 1a inputs an acoustic signal.
- the second signal processing means 1b receives the signal processed by the first signal processing means 1a.
- the delay unit 2 inputs an acoustic signal, performs arbitrary delay control on the acoustic signal, and outputs the result.
- the first sound source 3a acoustically outputs the signal processed by the first signal processing means 1a.
- the second sound source 3b acoustically outputs the signal processed by the second signal processing means 1b.
- the first sound source 3a and the second sound source 3b are ideal for outputting only the sound converted based on the signals processed by the first signal processing means 1a and the second signal processing means 1b, respectively.
- a speaker is assumed.
- the first detector 4a is installed in the vicinity of the first sound source 3a and detects the radiated sound of the first sound source 3a.
- the second detector 4b is installed in the vicinity of the second sound source 3b and detects the radiated sound of the second sound source 3b.
- the adder 5 adds the output of the delay device 2 and the output of the first detector 4a and inputs the result to the first signal processing means 1a. The operation of the loudspeaker in FIG. 29 will be described below.
- the delay unit 2 is set with a delay amount that is substantially the same as the time required for the first detector 4a to detect sound after the acoustic signal is input to the first signal processing means 1a.
- the first signal processing means 1a controls the acoustic signal so that the output of the adder 5 becomes small, and outputs it to the first sound source 3a and the second signal processing means 1b.
- the second signal processing means 1b controls the output of the first signal processing means 1a so that the output of the second detector 4b becomes small, and outputs it to the second sound source 3b.
- the sum of the output of the first detector 4a and the output of the delay device 2 approaches zero. That is, at the position of the first detector 4a, a sound pressure obtained by inverting the phase of the acoustic signal and delaying it by a predetermined time is obtained. Therefore, if a signal having a phase opposite to that of a desired acoustic signal is given, the first sound source 3a can emit a sound having a desired acoustic characteristic at the position of the first detector 4a.
- the output of the second detector 4b approaches zero. That is, at the position of the second detector 4b, the sound radiated from the first sound source 3a is canceled by the radiated sound of the second sound source 3b.
- the loudspeaker having the configuration shown in FIG. 29 can make the radiated sound detected by the first detector 4a have a desired acoustic characteristic, and at the same time, the radiation detected by the second detector 4b. Sound can be reduced.
- FIG. 30 is a drawing for explaining the reason in detail.

- DS 1 Second sound wave from the first sound source 3 a Sound wave DS 2 propagated to detector 4b: Sound wave D propagated from second sound source 3b to second detector 4b
- D Distance d 1 between first sound source 3a and second sound source 3b: first instrument 3a and the distance between the first detector 4a (propagation path length waves S 1)
- d 2 (propagation path length sound wave S 2) the distance between the second sound source 3b and the second detector 4b

- the intensity of the sound wave S 2 detected by the second detector 4b is detected by I 2
- the second detector 4b detects the intensity of the sound wave S 2 detected by the second detector 4b.
- DI 1 the intensity of the sound waves DS 1 is
- DI 2 the intensity of the sound waves DS 2 which is detected by the first detector 4a
- the propagation path length of the sound wave DS 1 is L 1
- the propagation path length of the sound wave DS 2 is L 2 .
- the second sound source 3b it is assumed that the acoustic wave S 2 to cancel sound waves DS 1 at the location of the second detector 4b.
- the path length difference of the sound wave DS 2 and sound waves S 1 since the difference in path length of the sound wave DS 2 and sound waves S 1 is equal, even in the location of the first detector 4a, the sound wave S 2 phases the reverse of the sound wave DS 1 phase.

- the active noise control device 200b having the above configuration can realize the same operation as the active noise control device 200 even if the television does not include the external output unit 110. Therefore, the active noise control device 200b can be sufficiently applied to an existing television. Furthermore, the active noise control device 200b can realize the same operation as the active noise control device 200 regardless of the characteristics of the internal circuit of the television 100b. Note that the echo generated by the signal detection microphone 252 picking up the sound generated by the vibration unit 270 by the control signal is removed by the operations of the echo canceller unit 250 and the subtractor 251. Therefore, there is no danger that the output of the control unit 220 diverges due to echo.

第1の実施形態では、スピーカ150等に出力する音響信号と同じ信号が、能動騒音制御装置200の信号取得部210により取得されることが前提となっていた。しかし、テレビは通常、ユーザの音量やイコライザ等の設定に合わせて、放送波等から得られる音響信号の音響出力特性を調整し、調整された信号をスピーカ150等に出力する。そこで、図18に示される構成により、当該音響出力特性の調整に対応出来るようにしても良い。図18において、テレビ100cは、外部出力部110cと、出力特性設定受信部120と、出力特性設定送信部121と、出力特性制御部130と、スピーカ150とを備える。能動騒音制御装置200cは、信号取得部210cと、制御部220cと、振動部270とを備える。ここで、図2と同じ符号を付しているものは、第1の実施形態と同じ動作をするため、説明を省略する。
ΔG:FIRフィルタ243の伝達関数
ΔH:ユーザが設定した出力特性に対応する出力特性制御部130の伝達関数
ここで、(数9)及び(数13)より次式が成り立つ。
第1、第2の実施形態では、図5に示されるように、振動板271から領域301に放射される音と振動板271から領域303に放射される音とがそれぞれ逆位相の関係にあることを前提に説明した。しかし、能動騒音制御装置の構造および視聴室301、隣室302の壁面構造によっては、特定の周波数の音を振動板271が放射すると、振動板271から領域301に放射される音と振動板271から領域303に放射される音とが同位相の関係になることがある。このような場合、振動板271によって音を放射しても、視聴者が存在する空間では低い周波数の音圧レベルを上げると同時に、隣室の空間では低い周波数の音圧レベルを低減することができない。そこで、第3の実施形態において、能動騒音制御装置は、このような周波数の音を振動板271が放射しないように制御する。
