A hybrid active noise control (ANC) scheme for suppressing duct noise based on the H∞ control synthesis is proposed. The controllers are designed in terms of performance, stability, and robustness using a general framework of the H∞ robust control theory. In addition to the fixed controller, the system is further enhanced by introducing an adaptive compensator based on the least-mean-square (LMS) algorithm. Youla parameterization is employed in designing the adaptive compensator so that the resulting system is stable. Experimental investigations demonstrate that the proposed methods are effective in suppressing broadband random noise in a finite-length duct.

Active Noise

Active Noise Control (ANC) has been considered a promising technology for the abatement of acoustic noise from the mid-20th century. Feedback and Feedforward ANC algorithms, based on the destructive interference principle applied to acoustic waves, have been developed for different applications, depending on the spectrum of the noise source. Feedback ANC algorithms make use of a single control microphone to measure an error signal which is then employed by an adaptive filter to estimate the noise source and generate an opposite-phase control signal. The Fx-LMS (Filtered-X Least Mean Square) algorithm is mostly adopted to update the filter. Feedback ANC systems have proven to be effective for the abatement of low-frequency quasi-steady noises; however, different challenges must be overcome to realize an effective and durable system for high-temperature application. This paper aims at experimentally assessing the feasibility of a Feedback Fx-LMS ANC system with off-line Secondary Path estimation to be used in mid-size diesel gensets for the reduction of the exhaust noise. Several solutions are proposed, including the mechanical design, the development of the Fx-LMS algorithm in the LabVIEW FPGA programming language, and the key features required to prevent parts from thermal damage and fouling. The developed prototype was implemented on a 50-kW diesel genset and tested in a semi-anechoic chamber. The noise abatement inside the exhaust pipe and at different measurement points around the machine was evaluated and discussed, showing good potential for improving the acoustic comfort of genset users.

Lattice Algorithm

The purpose of this paper is to propose an alternative approach to active noise control (ANC) using the least squares lattice (LSL) algorithm. Typically, in ANC applications, the least-mean-square (LMS) algorithm has been used because of its simplicity. However, the LMS algorithm has the disadvantage of slow convergence speed in the case of broadband noise, such as the road noise present in the passenger compartment of automobiles traveling on rough road surfaces. In order to solve this problem, the LSL algorithm for ANC is considered. By computer simulation using actual car data, the LSL algorithm proves to be more effective than the LMS one.

Fxlms Algorithm

Active noise control (ANC) techniques for a three-dimensional enclosure are compared in terms of two control structures and two control algorithms. The multiple-channel filtered-x least-mean-square (FXLMS) algorithm and the H∞ robust control algorithm are employed for controller synthesis. Both feedforward and feedback control structures are compared. The Youla’s parameterization is employed in the formulation of the multiple-channel feedback FXLMS algorithm. The algorithms are implemented using a floating-point digital signal processor (DSP). Experiments are carried out to validate the ANC approaches for attenuation of the internal field in a rectangular wooden box. Position and number of actuators and sensors are also investigated. A broadband random noise and an engine noise are chosen as the primary noises in the experiments. The experimental results indicate that the feedforward structure yields a broader band of attenuation than the feedback structure. The FXLMS control and H∞, control achieve comparable performance.

Electrodynamic loudspeakers are the main actuators of the active noise control system, and their harmonic distortion has a detrimental effect on the noise reduction of the system. To improve the performance, this paper proposes a novel narrowband active noise control algorithm with compensating the nonlinearity of the loudspeaker. In the proposed algorithm, the parameters of the controller are obtained by iteration through the filtered-x least mean square algorithm. Meanwhile, they are adjusted in real-time by establishing the online inverse model of the loudspeaker using the Volterra expansion. The simulation experiments for the typical loudspeaker model show that the proposed algorithm can dramatically improve noise reduction compared to the conventional algorithm.

In the field of active noise control (ANC), a popular method is the modified filtered-x LMS algorithm. However, it has two drawbacks: its computational complexity higher than that of the conventional FxLMS, and its convergence rate that could still be improved. Therefore, we propose an adaptive strategy which aims at speeding up the convergence rate of an ANC system dealing with periodic disturbances. This algorithm consists in combining the organization of the filter weights in a hierarchy of subfilters of shorter length and their sequential partial updates (PU). Our contribution is threefold: (1) we provide the theoretical basis of the existence of a frequency-dependent parameter, called gain in step-size. (2) The theoretical upper bound of the step-size is compared with the limit obtained from simulations. (3) Additional experiments show that this strategy results in a fast algorithm with a computational complexity close to that of the conventional FxLMS.

Feedback Active Noise Control

A stable feedback active noise control (FBANC) system with an improved performance in a broadband disturbance environment is proposed in this article. This is achieved by using a Steiglitz-McBride adaptive notch filter (SM-ANF) and robust secondary path identification (SPI) both based on variable step size Griffiths least mean square (LMS) algorithm. The broadband disturbance severely affects not only FBANC input synthesized but also the SPI.TheSM-ANFestimated signal has narrowband component that is utilized for the FBANC input synthesis. Further, the SM-ANF error has broadband component utilized to get the desired signal for SPI. The use of variable step size Griffiths gradient LMS algorithm for SPI enables the removal of broadband disturbance and non-stationary disturbance from the available desired signal for better SPI. For a narrowband noise field, the proposed FBANC improves the convergence rate significantly (20 times) and the noise reduction from 10 dB to 15 dB (50%improvement) over the conventional FBANC (without SM-ANF and variable step size Griffiths LMS adaptation for SPI).
