cogeneration plant

Active noise control (ANC) aims at reducing a noise source at a listening point by destructive interference with a reversed phase noise emitted by one or more controlling devices. These data are from an active vibration control (AVC) system applied to a wall of the metal box of a cogeneration plant. It makes use of electro-dynamic shakers as controllers and accelerometers as error and reference signals. The algorithm employed for generating the cancelling signals is a single-reference, single-input multiple-output (MIMO) Filtered-X Normalized Least Mean Square (FxNLMS).
