A siren detection system is particularly suited for installation in an automobile for providing a warning to the driver when an emergency vehicle is in the vicinity of the automobile. The system includes a microphone mounted on the automobile. The output of the mircophone is supplied to a bank of band-pass filters, each tuned to a different adjacent portion of the frequency range through which the frequency of a siren varies. The output of the filters are sampled by an averaging and selection circuit which produces a single output corresponding to the central one of any of the filters producing an output during a preestablished time interval. This output then is compared with the previous output (which indicates the previously selected band-pass frequency) to operate an up/down counter. Whenever successive counts of a preestablished number in the same direction occur, the output of the counter enables an alarm to indicate the presence of a siren operated by an emergency vehicle in the vicinity of the automobile. The system also includes circuits forenhancing noise rejection in the same frequency range.
