The engine booming noise heard inside a vehicle's cabin is due to the engine vibration that's transferred to the chassis in the form of structural vibration and it often causes discomfort to the passenger. In an effort to seek out the possible relation between the engine booming noise and the engine vibration of a vehicle, a position on the engine mount was selected and the vibration transmission through the position was attenuated to observe the corresponding change in the noise level inside the cabin. A system consisting of an actuator and a hybrid controller that has both the feed-forward and feed-back capabilities was developed in order to carry out the experiment.

일반적으로 건설장비의 운전자 소음은 자동차와는 달리 주행 시 소음에 관한 것은 크게 문제되지 않는다. 다만 모든 작동부들이 유압력에 의해 구동되므로 유압 이음이 새롭게 대두되며, 엔진 사용조건 또한 자동차와는 상이하다. 그러나, 운전자가 느끼는 관점에서 운전실내에서 안락함의 요구는 점차로 강해지고 있을 뿐만 아니라 소비자들의 직접적인 구매 의욕과 직결된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 굴삭기 운전실에서 문제시 되는 부밍(Booming)소음에 대해 고찰하고, 구조 기인 소음(structure-borne noise)에 초점을 둔 실험적 기법의 도입으로 주 소음원을 규명하고 주요 인자들에 대한 기여도 분석을 통해 운전실 소음 저감을 구현하였다.

The active noise cancellation system showing the effective convergence and stability has been studied by simplifying the controller structures using the weighting factors of control error path to the multi-channel filtered-x LMS algorithm which needs a lot of calculations and the performance has been verified experimentally. Besides, to implement the system performance in a vehicle cabin, experimental work for selecting the suitable numbers and positions of the microphones and speakers was accomplished. Effectively combining a TMS 320C 31 main processor conducting real number calculations and having various functions with other components, the purpose-built system board for active noise cancellation has been designed and with this board, car active noise cancellation system showing maximum stable 10dB noise reduction has been obtained at the car idling conditions above 3000rpm range.

Reduction of structure-borne noise in the compartment of a car is an important task in automotive engineering. Many methods which analyze noise transfer path have been generally used for structure-borne noise. These methods are useful in solving particular problem but do not quantify the effectiveness of vibration isolation for each isolator of a vehicle. To quantify the effectiveness of vibration isolation, the vibrational power flow measurement has been used for a simple isolation system or a laboratory based isolation system. This paper identifies the transfer path of booming noise in a SUV. The powertrain used for test has a in-line 4cylinder engine and 5-shift auto-transmission. This powertrain is transversely supported by four isolators. We calculated the energy flow throughout four isolator by the measurement of power flow and the contribution of energy flow at each isolator.

Vehicle interior noise has become increasingly important in this recent years. The noise of a vehicle is one of the important problems in a vehicle design. The interior noise is caused by various vibration sources of vehicle compartment. The booming noise of a vehicle can be significantly affected by vibrations transmitted from engine excitation forces to the vehicle body. Specially, we are interested in the state of transmission paths such as engine mounts to reduce noise in a vehicle compartment. In this paper, we have been calculated the contribution of each transmission path such as engine mounts to interior noise. To identify contribution of each input sources and transmission paths to output, the effectiveness of each input component to output is calculated. Sensitivity analysis is carried out for investigation of contribution to output due to input variations. With the simulation of magnitude and phase change of inputs using vector synthesis diagram, the trends of synthesized output vector are obtained. As a result, we suggested sensitivity analysis of vector synthesis as a technique of prediction and control for noise in a vehicle compartment.

피치 (pitch)는 주파수와 관련된 인간이 실제 느끼는 음의 높이로 라우드니스 (loudness), 음색 (timbre)과 함께 소리의 음질을 결정하는 중요한 요소로 알려져 있다. 이러한 피치는 음성 해석 및 분리를 위해 많은 연구가 이루어진 반면 소음 분석 및 음질 향상을 위한 방향으로의 연구는 부족한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 기저막 (basilar membrane)의 위치에 따른 주파수 분리 이론인 위치이론 (place theory)을 기본으로 한 기존의 가상 피치 (virtual pitch) 분석 알고리즘을 소음에 적용하기 위해서 수정하고, 절러가지 소음에 적용하였다. 본 연구에서의 알고리즘은 소음의 주파수 특성에 의존한 방법이기 때문에, 토널 (tonal) 성분이 존재하는 소음의 적용에는 적합한 결과를 나타냈지만, 그 이외의 소음에 대해서는 정확한 분석이 어렵다. 따라서 기본 주파수 (fundamental frequency)와 이와 관련된 고조파음(harmonics)이 음질에 중요한 영향을 미치는 소음의 음질 해석 린 음질 향상을 위해 본 연구의 알고리즘에 의한 피치 분석과 기존의 음질 인자를 적용하면 보다 효율적인 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것이다. 이런 소음의 예로는 엔진의 부밍 소음이나 기어 whine 소음 등이다.

The passive noise control techniques used until now cancel the noise in terms of the characteristics of materials, which increase the mass and the dimension and have a limit that is effective only to attenuate the high frequency components of the noise. But the active noise control techniques developed in recent years have merits that they decrease the mass and the dimension and are effective to attenuating the low frequency noises. In this paper, the real-time active noise control system attenuating the engine booming noise in a car using the digital signal processing(DSP) techniques in terms of the principle of active noise control. The multiple-error filtered-x LMS(Least-Mean Square) algorithm is used as the adaptive algorithm for active noise control and is implemented using the DSP processor Motorola DSP56001 as a controller. According to the result that the experiments are performed for the engine as the RPM changes in a car, the noise attenuating performances are achieved in an overall car interior and is verified to be 20 dB higher for pure-tone and globally, 15 dB.

In this paper, a new indirect feedback active noise control (ANC) scheme based on the fundamental frequency estimation is proposed for systems with a harmonic noise. When reference signals necessary for feedforward ANC configuration is difficult to obtain, the conventional ANC algorithms for multi-tonal noise do not measure the reference signals but generate them with the estimated frequencies. However, the beating phenomena, in which certain frequency components of the noise vanish intermittently, may make the adaptive frequency estimation difficult. The confusion in the estimated frequencies due to the beating phenomena makes the generated reference signals worthless. The proposed algorithm consists of two parts. The first part is a reference generator using the fundamental frequency estimation and the second one is the conventional feedforward control. We propose the fundamental frequency estimation algorithm using decision rules, which is insensitive to the beating phenomena. In addition, the proposed fundamental frequency estimation algorithm has good tracking capability and lower variance of frequency estimation error than that of the conventional cascade ANF method. We are also able to control all interested modes of the noise, even which cannot be estimated by the conventional frequency estimation method because of the poor SIN ratio. We verify the performance of the proposed ANC method through simulations for the measured cabin noise of a passenger ship and the measured time-varying engine booming noise of a passenger vehicle.
