1. A method for producing ultrasonic sound waves with an ultrasonic transducer to realize reduced audible noise, the method comprising the steps of:

  • arranging a filter which attenuates low frequencies to a greater extent than higher frequencies in front of the ultrasonic transducer; and

    applying a transducer drive signal as input to the ultrasonic transducer to produce ultrasonic sound waves which pass through the filter and provide filtered ultrasonic sound waves with reduced audible noise effects.
