System and method for reduction of mechanically-generated noise

摘要

A system that includes a mechanical element that is movable by a user; a microphone that is arranged to receive sound signals that comprise (a) sound signals of interest and (b) a mechanical noise resulting from a movement of the mechanical element; a mechanical noise reduction module that is arranged to receive or to generate a noise indication that is indicative of an actual or an expected generation of the mechanical noise and to attenuate the mechanical noise in response to the noise indication to provide an attenuated mechanical noise; and a communication module that is arranged to transmit output signals that are representative of the sound signals of interest and the attenuated mechanical noise.
