Speaker unit with active leak compensation
First Claim
1. An electro dynamic speaker unit comprising an electro dynamic motor adapted for receiving a first electrical signal and to drive a diaphragm in accordance with the received first electrical signal, the diaphragm being adapted to emit an acoustical output signal, sensing means adapted for generating a second electrical signal in accordance with a movement of the diaphragm, and determining means adapted for receiving the first and the second electrical signals so as to determine an acoustical load of the speaker unit from the first and the second electrical signals, and to generate a third electrical signal in accordance with the determined acoustical load of the speaker unit.

Abstract
The present invention relates to an electro dynamic speaker unit comprising an electro dynamic motor adapted for receiving a first electrical signal and to drive a diaphragm in accordance with the received first electrical signal. The speaker unit further comprises sensing means adapted for generating a second electrical signal in accordance with a movement of the diaphragm, and determining means adapted for receiving the first and the second electrical signals so as to determine an acoustical load of the speaker unit from the first and the second electrical signals. The determining means further generates a third electrical signal in accordance with the determined acoustical load of the speaker unit. The present invention further relates to a method for active leak compensation of an electro dynamic speaker unit.
