Abstract

The system of the invention includes a sound-capture and listening system for a helmet in a noisy environment, and is characterized in that it includes, on the sound-capture side, at least one microphone (20) followed by a sampling device (25), by a decimator (26), by a device (27) for compensating for signal distortions arising within the whole of the upstream acoustic chain, and on the listening side, an interpolator (5) followed by a device for compensating for the defects of audiometry of the operator (6) and by an active noise reduction loop (10, 11, 7, 12, 13, 14).
