Snoring sounds are not produced by obstruction of the trachea but of the upper respiratory airway.

Journal of Biomechanics, 2007
This paper investigates the snoring mechanism of humans by applying the concept of structural intensity to a three-dimensional (3D) finite element model of a human head, which includes: the upper part of the head, neck, soft palate, hard palate, tongue, nasal cavity and the surrounding walls of the pharynx.

Snoring classified: The Munich-Passau Snore Sound Corpus

Computers in Biology and Medicine, 2018
Snoring can be excited in different locations within the upper airways during sleep. It was hypothesised that the excitation locations are correlated with distinct acoustic characteristics of the snoring noise. To verify this hypothesis, a database of snore sounds is developed, labelled with the location of sound excitation.Video and audio recordings ...

Acta Paediatrica, 2003
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSAS) in infants is a risk factor for sudden infant death (SIDS). Snoring in a young child should raise suspicion of OSAS, and according to recent AAP guidelines, evaluation and polysomnographic studies are recommended in selected cases as the diagnostic test of choice.

Snoring and Apnea

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1987
Clinical investigation over the last decade has demonstrated that sleep may not be the benign rejuvenating state it was once considered. With the discovery of repetitive episodes of sleep obstruction during sleep, there has been an increased interest in what happens to breathing during sleep.
