Definitions

  • the invention relates to the treatment of acoustic noise generated by vehicles, in particular road vehicles.
  • acoustic noise can be generated by vibrations transmitted through the suspension (road noise) , the passage of wind over the surface of the vehicle (wind noise) and noise generated by the vehicle engine (engine noise) , and noise generated by the vehicle exhaust (exhaust noise) for example.
  • Acoustic noise within a vehicle cabin comprises sound within the cabin and/or vibration of vehicle panels and components. (The term vibration being considered hereinafter to be confined to vibration of vehicle components and not airborne vibrations) .
  • Vehicle bystanders are also exposed to acoustic noise generated by a vehicle.
  • One of the main contributors to such noise is the vehicle exhaust and engine which produce a characteristic vehicle sound.
  • Acoustic noise can be reduced by passive methods such as the use of absorbing material or by active methods in which an anti-phase acoustic signal is utilised.
  • WO 89/11841 Various proposals have been made for the active cancellation of undesired sound experienced by cabin occupants and bystanders.
  • One example (WO 89/11841) involves the use of microphones and loudspeakers mounted in a car seat to monitor audible noise adjacent to the ears of a seat occupant.
  • WO 88/02912 describes a particularly flexible system for the cancellation of sound within a vehicle cabin by the control of vibrations of vehicle components as well as the control of audible noise within the cabin using loudspeakers and/or vibrators.
  • the present invention provides an acoustic control apparatus for use in a vehicle, the apparatus comprising a first source of signals representing a desired vehicle operating vibration or a desired vehicle operating vibration and vehicle operating sound, control means selectively operable and/or responsive to vehicle operation to control the signals from the first source to provide outputs to at least one transducer so as to create for an occupant of the vehicle a desired vehicle operating vibration or a desired vehicle operating vibration and vehicle operating sound.
  • Such an " apparatus can be integrated with a noise cancellation system comprising a second source of signals representing undesired vehicle operating vibration or undesired vehicle operating vibration and vehicle operating sound, a noise cancellation controller adapted to receive the signals from the second source and provide outputs to at least one transducer so as to cancel the undesired vehicle operating vibration or undesired vehicle operating vibration and vehicle operating sound.

  • the signal treatment unit may be adapted to shape the received signals to provide the signals representing the desired vehicle operating vibration or desired vehicle operating vibration and vehicle operating sound, or it may comprise a synthesiser controlled by a .microprocessor.
  • the signal treatment unit may be responsive to at least one of an engine throttle control or received signals from the second source of signals, to adjust its output in response.
  • the vehicle operating vibration or vehicle operating vibration and vehicle operating sound experienced by the vehicle occupant can be controlled such that, for instance, the sound and "feel" of a low performance vehicle can be adjusted to give the sound and "feel” of a high performance vehicle, or the sound and "feel” of any vehicle type can be produced as desired.
  • transducers can be distributed throughout the vehicle such that not only the sound within the cabin is modified, but also the vibrations experienced by the cabin occupants are modified to a more desired result. Modification of the sound within the cabin can be provided by output not only from loudspeakers which may comprise the loudspeakers of the in-car entertainment system, but also from other transducers such as "smart panels".
  • the sound within the cabin can be monitored by transducers such as microphones to provide feedback for modification of the sound input to the cabin to enable the desired sound to be reached. Coupled to the attainment of a desired sound within the cabin, is the attainment of a desired vibration experienced within the cabin. This can be achieved by the control of transducers coupled to vehicle panels 1 and components such that undesired vibration can be cancelled whilst desired vibrations are input. Transducers for cancelling undesired vibration and inputting desired vibration may be active engine mounts, "smart panels" or simple vibrators. One simple arrangement that could provide a direct effect on the occupants, is the coupling of a vibrator to the seats together with a feedback transducer, to provide a desired vibration to an occupant. In such a system individual controls may be provided for respective seats ⁇ such that occupants of different seats can experience different vibration.
  • the apparatus provides a mix of measuring transducers and actuating transducers to provide the desired degree of control of the vibration and sound experienced within the cabin.
  • the desired vibration or vibration and sound experienced in the cabin can be dependent on the engine speed and the load experienced by the engine as determined by an engine throttle control.
  • the vibration or vibration and sound experienced in the cabin can be closely representative of the driving conditions.
  • a further control can be provided for the occupants wherein the apparatus can be switched off, or the balance of vibration and sound control varied. Such control allows an occupant to tune the system as desired.
  • noise cancellation controller that provides for good control is of the kind described in WO 88/02912, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
  • the invention also provides an acoustic control apparatus for use in a vehicle, the apparatus comprising a first source of signals representing a desired sound related to vehicle operation, control means selectively operable and/or responsive to vehicle operation to control the signals from the first source to provide outputs to transducers so as to create a desired vehicle operating sound externally to the vehicle.
  • This apparatus may also incorporate a noise cancellation controller of the described type.
  • exhaust or engine noise for example can be modified by the use of transducers to provide a sound to a vehicle bystander that is more desirable.

  • the in-car entertainment (I.C.E.) components of the circuit comprise an audio signal source constituted by a radio tuner 2 connected to an aerial 4, and a deck or decks 5 for playing one or more of compact discs, digitally recorded tapes or cassettes.
  • the outputs from the tuner 2 and the deck or decks 5 are fed to a pre-amplifier 6 fitted with a conventional control arrangement 7 for signal source selection and for output adjustment, such as volume, base and treble controls, or graphic equalisation, and switching instruments.

  • the apparatus provides control over the sound and vibration experienced in the cabin of the vehicle and sound experienced by vehicle bystanders.
  • the apparatus includes a pre-recorded vibration and sound source 15 which can comprise a deck of one or other of the types of deck mentioned with reference to deck 5, but which need not have the usual facility for selective replacement of signal storage medium. Operation of the source 15 is dependent on a control signal related to vehicle operation, typically throttle movement or gear changes, derived from a transducer 16 supplied to the source 15 on line 17, so that the source delivers signals representing the vibration and/or sound of acceleration of a high powered vehicle, or other such desirable vibrations and or sounds, during acceleration or other operation of the vehicle in which the apparatus is installed.
  • the source 15 need not be controlled by -the transducer 16 and the output signal can be continuous or can be switchable by the vehicle occupants.

  • the noise cancellation controller also receives a signal from the source 3 on line 35 and an output from the pre-amplifier on line 33 representing the desired signal output to produce the desired vibration and/or sound.
  • the loudspeakers 11 and vibrators 8 receiving signals from the deck 5 or the signal treatment unit 21 can be located anywhere in or on the vehicle. The position of these transducers depends on the vibration and sound desired at locations in and around the vehicle.
  • the noise cancellation controller 30 operates by comparing the signals from the transducers 31 on P channels with the desired signal on line 33 from the pre-amplifier 6. This comparison is performed by differential amplifiers 40. The resulting difference or undesired signal is then bandpass filtered in filters 41, multiplexed using multiplex 42 and converted from analogue to digital using the analogue to digital converters 43. This signal is then manipulated by the central processor unit 44 using the algorithm described in WO 88/02912 utilising the memories 45 and 46.
