14. A method of reducing wind noise throb in a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, comprising:
-
monitoring, by a window position monitoring device, motor vehicle window position; monitoring, by a sound pressure monitoring device, sound pressure in said passenger compartment; generating, by an active noise cancellation subsystem, an active noise cancellation signal; and displacing, by a dynamic airflow control subsystem, a dynamic surface on said motor vehicle to direct airflow away from an open window only when wind noise throb still exceeds a threshold level following generating said active noise cancellation signal. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)
