Active Noise Control Using a Functional Link Artificial Neural Network with the Simultaneous Perturbation Learning Rule

[摘要] In practical active noise control (ANC) systems, the primary path and the secondary path may be nonlinear and time-varying. It has been reported that the linear techniques used to control such ANC systems exhibit degradation in performance. In addition, the actuators of an ANC system very often have nonminimum-phase response. A linear controller under such situations yields poor performance. A novel functional link artificial neural network (FLANN)-based simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation (SPSA) algorithm, which functions as a nonlinear mode-free (MF) controller, is proposed in this paper. Computer simulations have been carried out to demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms the standard filtered-x least mean square (FXLMS) algorithm, and performs better than the recently proposed filtered-s least mean square (FSLMS) algorithm when the secondary path is time-varying. This observation implies that the SPSA-based MF controller can eliminate the need of the modeling of the secondary path for the ANC system.
