Abstract
An active vibration control system having at least two input sensors generating first signals representative of a primary vibration field, a plurality of actuators driven by second signals and producing a secondary vibration field, monitoring sensors responsive to both the primary and secondary vibration fields and producing third signals, and a controller having one output waveform generator for each second signal and responsive to the first signals to generate respective second signals so that vibration is reduced in a chosen region excited by both the primary and secondary fields, the controller being adaptive to adjust the waveform generator outputs to maintain the reduced vibration in this region.
