Abstract
This paper presents an adaptive genetic algorithm (AGA) for an active noise control (ANC) system. The conventional ANC system often implements the filtered extended least mean square (FXLMS) algorithm to update the coefficients of the linear finite-impulse response (FIR) and nonlinear Volterra filters, owing to its simplicity; meanwhile, the FXLMS algorithm may converge to local minima. In this paper, the FXLMS algorithm is replaced with an AGA to prevent the local minima problem. Additionally, the proposed AGA method does not require identifying the secondary path for the ANC, explaining why no plant measurement is necessary when designing an AGA-based ANC system. Simulation results demonstrate that the effectiveness of the proposed AGA method can suppress the nonlinear noise interference under several situations without clearly identifying the secondary path.
