Abstract
Multichannel Active Noise Control (ANC) headrest systems have usually been designed with the objective of creating quiet areas at the passenger positions within the cabin of a public transport. Due to the high computational demands of dealing with multiple loudspeakers and multiple microphones by using a single centralized processor, and the convenience of a scalable system, a distributed implementation may be advisable. On the other hand, the addition of the remote microphone (RM) technique to the ANC headrest systems has recently allowed the creation of local zones of quiet at unachievable placements for the error sensors. This technique allows the quiet zone to be shifted to a desired location away from the physical sensor. However, to our knowledge, the implementation of an ANC headrest system with virtual microphones over a distributed acoustic sensor network has not been addressed. In this work, a distributed version of the multiple-error FxLMS (MEFxLMS) algorithm considering the RM method (RM-DMEFxLMS) is proposed by using an alternative formulation of the RM method. Through a set of simulations, it is found that on a non-constrained communication network, the proposed algorithm presents the same performance of its centralized version and provides a scalable and more versatile ANC system.
