According to an aspect, an active noise control device includes: a control frequency determinator that determines a frequency of the noise; a reference cosine-wave generator that generates a reference cosine-wave signal having the determined frequency; a reference sine-wave generator that generates a reference sine-wave signal having the frequency of a noise; a first one-tap adaptive filter to which the reference cosine-wave signal is input, the first one-tap adaptive filter having a first filter coefficient; a second one-tap adaptive filter to which the reference sine-wave signal is input, the second one-tap adaptive filter having a second filter coefficient; an adder that adds an output signal from the first one-tap adaptive filter and an output signal from the second one-tap adaptive filter to each other; a secondary noise generator that is driven by an output signal from the adder to generate a secondary noise; a residual sound detector that detects a residual sound generated by interference between the secondary noise and the noise; a simulation signal generator that outputs a simulation cosine-wave signal and a simulation sine-wave signal, the simulation cosine-wave signal and the simulation sine-wave signal being obtained by correcting the reference cosine-wave signal and the reference sine-wave signal using a characteristic in which a transfer characteristic from the secondary noise generator to the residual sound detector is simulated; and a filter coefficient updating unit that updates the first filter coefficient and the second filter coefficient based on an output signal from the residual sound detector, an output signal from the simulation signal generator, the reference cosine-wave signal, the reference sine-wave signal, and the output signal from the adder. The secondary noise is reduced in a space where the residual sound detector is installed.
