Abstract
For example, an apparatus may include an input to receive input information including a Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) input including HVAC configuration information corresponding to a configuration of an operation of an HVAC system of a vehicle; a plurality of noise inputs representing acoustic noise at a plurality of noise sensing locations; and a plurality of residual-noise inputs representing acoustic residual-noise at a plurality of residual-noise sensing locations within at least one sound control zone in the vehicle; a controller configured to determine a sound control pattern to control sound within the at least one sound control zone in the vehicle, the controller configured to determine the sound control pattern based on the HVAC input, the plurality of noise inputs and the plurality of residual-noise inputs; and an output to output the sound control pattern to a plurality of acoustic transducers.
