摘要:
A coefficient updating method stops updating filter coefficients for a plurality of adaptive filters when a convergence condition is achieved. Active noise control within a system simulates an original noise signal with a simulated noise signal which is equal and opposite to the original noise signal. To detect feedback in such a system, a reference signal or "white noise" is generated by a speaker, transmitted through the system and received by a microphone. Coefficients of multiple filters such as an anti-feedback filter, a C filter, and a noise control filter are then updated to minimize adverse parameters such as original noise and feedback. Coefficient updating of the adaptive filters is stopped when a minimum average value is reached.

An estimation apparatus predicts filter coefficients for an adaptive filter, the response of which emulates the signal transmission characteristics of a known signal. The response thereto is sent to a signal transmission system of unknown characteristics, enabling execution of calculations without invalidating coefficient updating, even when there is a limit on the word length for processings. To achieve this, a sum of products calculation unit calculates the sum of products of the residual difference in response and the signal which is sent to the signal transmission system. A sum of squares calculating unit calculates the sum of the squares of the signal sent to the signal transmission system over a prescribed period of time. An updating amount calculation unit calculates the filter coefficient updating amounts from the ratio of the results from the sum of the products calculating unit to the results of the sum of the squares calculating unit. Filter coefficients are updated using the coefficient updating amounts calculated by the updating amount calculation unit.

摘要:
In a noise controller which forms a noise cancelling sound having a phase opposite to and a sound pressure equal to those of a noise infiltrating into a closed space, any deviation in its transfer characteristics from the initial equalization is easily checked and judged owing to the provision of an adaptive filter which automatically varies the filter coefficient and forms a cancelling signal for forming a cancelling sound, a coefficient updating means which updates the filter coefficient based on an error signal after the noise has been cancelled, a simulated transfer characteristics compensation means which forms the initial equalization by simulating transfer characteristics of a transmission path via the space in which the noise is to be cancelled and forms a reproduced reference signal, a white noise generating means which generates white noise to check the initial equalization, and an initial equalization judging means which judges the accuracy of the initial equalization based on a ratio (S/N) of the reproduced reference signal obtained from white noise to the error signal. A change in the conditions for cancelling noise is detected in the closed space, and any deviation from the initial equalization is judged.
摘要:
An active adaptive noise canceller that inserts delays into the weight update logic of an adaptive filter to keep the filter stable. The noise and residual noise are sensed and the respective sensor signals are digitized at a given sample rate for processing in the adaptive filter. To eliminate the need for high sample rates while maintaining flexibility in the frequency regions over which the adaptive filter is stable, the delay introduced into the weight update logic is a non-integer multiple of the sample period. The non-integer sample delay is obtained by a sample interpolation and decimation procedure.

An apparatus for reducing noise for an interior of enclosed space, e.g., a vehicular compartment using an FIR adaptive digital filter is disclosed in which a control circuit is provided which outputs drive signals to a plurality of loud speakers which generate control sounds to interfer with a noise sound propagated in the interior so that a performance function including terms of residual noise signals output from residual noise signal detecting microphones and drive signals to the loud speakers is minimized and contributivity of the drive signals to the performance function is changed according to an occurrence of divergence in the noise reducing apparatus.
摘要:
Disclosed is an adaptive canceler in which a pipelined approach is used wherein reference signals are divided into two or more sections having concurrent weight adjustment. This architecture allows the speed of adaptive cancellation to be increased and/or the number of reference taps to be increased without loss of cancellation speed. Once a continuous stream of digital data has been established in this architecture, the speed of the adaptive processor is limited only by approximately the processing time of the slowest element. The noise canceled signal may then be converted to the frequency domain in a fast Fourier transform device.
摘要:
An active adaptive noise canceller that inserts delays in the weight update logic of an adaptive filter employed by the canceller to make the filter stable. It has been found that there is a great deal of flexibility regarding the selection of the delay values. This insensitivity permits designing the delays in advance, and not having to adjust them to different situations as they change, thus no longer requiring a training mode. The canceller dramatically reduces the amount of hardward needed to perform active adaptive noise cancelling, and eliminates the need for the training mode, which in some applications, including automobiles, for example, can be as objectionable as the noise sources that are to be suppressed.
