Abstract

A feedforward active noise control system ( ) is provided for generating an anti-noise signal to attenuate a noise signal provided through a media. The feedforward active noise control system ( ) performs on-line feedback path modeling and feedback path neutralization and includes a reference sensor ( ), a secondary source ( ), an error sensor ( ), and an active noise control system controller ( ). The reference sensor ( ) receives the noise signal and a feedback signal ( ) and generates a primary signal x(n). The secondary source ( ) receives a secondary signal s(n) and generates a corresponding anti-noise signal. The error sensor ( ) receives a residual signal and generates an error signal e(n) in response. The active noise control system controller ( ) receives the primary signal x(n) and the error signal e(n) and generates the secondary signal y(n) while performing on-line feedback path modeling.
