Description
Summary:Active Noise Control (ANC) is frequently utilized to minimize noise in industrial environments. However, the powerful pulses in industrial noise pose challenges to its application. Consequently, ANC systems necessitate a high-performance algorithm as a core component. In this process, the variable step-size strategy is the main approach for enhancing the ANC algorithm’s performance but ensuring robustness while improving performance remains a challenge. To address this problem, we propose a new ANC algorithm with a variable step size. This algorithm is derived from the Affine Projection Generalized Maximum Correntropy (APGMC) method, featuring a hybrid step-size and a new step-size approach achieved by modifying the mean square deviation (MSD). To showcase the practical effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, noisy audio from a real construction site was used for noise reduction control. Results show that the proposed algorithm effectively manages noise across frequency bands, with an improvement of approximately 16% to 19.2% compared to existing similar algorithms.
