The noise reduction shall apply attenuation

 

1.1

Attenuation shall depend on modulation

 

1.1.1

The dependency between modulation depth (m) and attenuation (a) shall be as follows: a d B = { A 0 ; m M 1 A 0 ( 1 m M 1 M 2 M 1 ) ; m ] M 1 , M 2 [ 0 ; else

(See Figure 1)

[3, 12]

1.1.2

The noise reduction shall be sensitive to modulation frequencies in range [1-12 Hz]

[1]

1.2

Attenuation shall be applied in individual subbands

[3]

1.2.1

The crossover frequencies shall be { List of frequencies }

 

1.3

The attenuation by the noise reduction shall be superposed linearly with other attenuations in the system
