In this paper, the transmitted noise reduction performance of piezoelectric smart panels is experimentally studied. The proposed piezoelectric smart panels are comprised of plate structure on which piezoelectric sensor/actuators are bonded and sound absorbing material is provided. It is a combination of passive and active approaches utilizing a passive effect at high frequencies and an active effect at low frequencies. To prove the concept of piezoelectric smart panels, an acoustic measurement experiment is performed. An acoustic tunnel is designed and its acoustic characteristics are tested. Below 800Hz, the tunnel exhibits a plane wave guide characteristics. When an absorbing material is bonded on a single plate, a remarkable transmitted noise reduction in mid frequency range is observed except the first resonance frequency. By enabling the active control of single smart panel with negative feedback control. about 10dB noise reduction is achieved at the resonance frequencies. The double smart panel got 4dB at the first resonance frequency and has more potential to reduce the transmitted noise in a wide range frequency. Piezoelectric smart panels incorporating passive absorbing material and active piezoelectric devices is a promising technology for noise reduction in a wide range frequency.

The feedback controllers for the active vibration control of elastic systems are developed using optimal regulator, optimal tracking, time optimal and noise observer algorithms. Using the modal analysis of the elastic systems, the effects of the actuator positions, the input weighting factor and the magnitude of the constraint of the actuator force are investigated.

특정 플랜트내에 원하지 않는 음이나 진동신호를 능동적으로 제어하기 위해 LMS의 Filtered reference와 Filtered error 방법으로 피드포워드 적응제어 시스템을 사용할 때 오차신호의 수렴특성을 플랜트의 추정 임펄스응답의 정확도로써 나타낼 수 있는 식을 제안하고 수치 시뮬레이션과 실험으로 그 유효성에 대해 기술한다. 플랜트내 음향전달계의 추정 임펄스응답의 안정성 평가식은 이미 W. Ren과 P. R. Kumar에 의해 발표되었으나[1], 그 평가방법은 플랜트내의 실제(True) 임펄스응답을 필요로하고있어 수치 시뮬레이션에서는 가능한 방법이지만 임펄스응답의 측정이 불가능한 실제의 적응제어 시스템에 적용하는 것은 곤란하다. 따라서, 플랜트의 추정 임펄스응답을 크로스스펙트럼법(Cross-Spectrum)으로 추정하여 그 임펄스응답을 피드포워드 적응제어 시스템에 적용했을 때 안정성 여부를 평가하고, 또한 오차신호의 수렴특성을 Filtered reference와 Filtered error 방법에서 각각 확인하였다. 수치 시뮬레이션 결과와 실험 결과가 일치함을 확인하였다.

The active noise cancellation system offers a better low frequency performance with a smaller and lighter system compared to a passive one. This paper presents an active noise control system capable of reducing the noise in a helmet after attenuating the external noise using the helmet as the passive noise reduction system, which consists of a controller for inverting and compensating the phase delay, a microphone for picking up the external noise, and a loudspeaker for radiating the acoustic anti-phase signal to reduce the external noise. In this paper, external noise can be reduced by noise controller by compensating the phase difference to be 180°in the frequency of maximun value in the amplitude response. The noise of the phase delay covered from 50°to 310°was reduced in this system and it is possible to obtain a noise reduction of up to approximately 20 dB at the ears in the enclosure.

In this study, theoretical and experimental analyses were performed for creating and moving the zone of quiet(ZoQ) to the ear location of a sitter by using active sound control technique. As the ZoQ is actively created at the location of the error microphone basically with an active sound control system using an algorithm such as the filtered-x least mean square(FxLMS), the virtual microphone control(VMC) method was considered to move the location of the ZoQ to around the sitter`s ear. A chair system with microphones and loudspeakers on both sides was manufactured for the experiment and thus an active headrest against the swept narrowband noise as the primary noise was implemented with a real-time controller in which the VMC algorithm was embedded. After the control experiment with and without the VMC method, the location variation of the ZoQ by analyzing the error signals measured by the error and the virtual microphones. Therefore, it is observed that the FxLMS with the VMC technique can provide the re-location of the ZoQ from the error microphone location to the virtual microphone location. Also it is found that the amount of the attenuation difference between the two locations was small.

In this paper, we propose a design method of Active Noise Control (ANC) that reduces perceived level of the residual noise. A FELMS (Filtered-E Least Mean Squares) algorithm is used for the ANC system and the NC (noise criteria) is applied as an evaluation criterion of the residual noise. With this structure, we present the allowable spectral shape of the noise shaping filter that minimizes the NC index within the effective operating frequency band of the ANC, and showed that the filter satisfying in the criterion has a lower NC value than the psychoacoustic-based filter used in the previous studies.

In this paper, a novel variable step-size filtered-x gradient adaptive lattice (NVSS-FxGAL) algorithm for active noise control system is proposed. The gradient adaptive lattice (GAL) algorithm is capable of controlling the narrow band noise effectively. The GAL algorithm can achieve both fast convergence rate and low steady-state level using the variable step-size. However, it suffers from the convergence performance for varying signal characteristic since the global variable step-size is equally applied to all lattice stages. Therefore, the proposed algorithm guarantees the stable and consistency convergence performance by using the local variable step-size for the suitable each lattice stage. Simulation results confirm that the proposed algorithm can obtain the fast convergence rate and low steady-state level compared to the conventional algorithms.

This paper presents a study on the experimental analysis of the impedance characteristics according to the rotational direction of the transmission beam of a cylindrical sensor array. Besides, this suggests a real time control technique of the transmitter output for the effective maximum power transmission, in order to drive efficiently the rotational transmission beam of the active sonar transmitter. The output characteristics of the transmitter and the real-time impedance variations of the sensor array are analyzed under the overload conditions. They are caused by electric and acoustic boundary conditions when the rotational transmission beam is operated. From these results, a new output control method of the transmitter is proposed to protect the transmitter and its loads. It can maximize the output power without the transmission pause even if the transient phenomena occur. The proposed technique is verified from the experiment.
