The noise was so extreme that Brown formally complained and "The RPI Rule" was universally adopted. [5] [6] [7] [8]
The name was given because the sound slowly decreases in frequency over about seven minutes. It was recorded using an autonomous hydrophone array. [8] The sound has been picked up several times each year since 1997. [9] One of the hypotheses on the origin of the sound is moving ice in Antarctica. Sound spectrograms of vibrations caused by ...

Thus it's quite common to get better performing impulse noise filters with model-based systems ...
