Abstract
This paper presents the design and implementation of a digital signal processor (DSP)-based feed-forward narrow-band noise canceling system using the Analog Devices ADSP-2181 EZ-KIT Lite developer's kit. The theory of adaptive noise control (ANC) is applied to an ear-muff so that the entire system combines both passive and active techniques to reduce the harmful acoustic noise emitted by machinery and engines. The ANC developed uses a 100-tap finite impulse response (FIR) filter which encompasses the least mean square (LMS) and normalised LMS (NLMS) algorithms to adaptively `track' changing input conditions. The hardware and software aspects for real-time implementation, the signal conditioning circuits and the software developed for stereo multiplexing in the EZ-KIT Lite environment are presented. Performance results show significant improvements in noise attenuation levels when compared to use of a purely passive technique.
