Abstract

The nature and origin of frequency and amplitude modulation in music and other related human activities is examined and particular neural sensitivity is identified in the frequency range 1 to 10 Hz. It is surmised that amplitude modulation as the vanes pass the tower may be a major factor in wind turbine annoyance, and suggested that an electro-acoustic system to reduce this modulation might be effective in reducing noise annoyance.
