  1. 1. Linear Quadratic Gaussian Controllers for Feedforward Active Noise Control : Pushing Performance and Moving Towards Adaptive Control

    Author : Annea Barkefors; Mikael Sternad; Anders Ahlén; Lars-Johan Brännmark; Bengt Carlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; active noise control; ANC; LQG; feedforward control; sound field control; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot reglerteknik; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Automatic Control;

    Abstract : Active noise control is a research area focused on using destructive interference of sound fields to attenuate undesired noise. Methods for active noise control are best suited for low frequency noise, as the complexity of the problem grows rapidly with frequency. READ MORE

  2. 2. Robust Sound Field Control for Audio Reproduction : A Polynomial Approach to Discrete-Time Acoustic Modeling and Filter Design

    Author : Lars-Johan Brännmark; Anders Ahlén; Mikael Sternad; Mathias Johansson; Rodney Kennedy; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Acoustic signal processing; equalizers; error modeling; feedforward control; interpolation; loudspeakers; multivariable filters; polynomials; robustness; sound fields;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with the design and analysis of robust discrete-time filters for audio equalization and sound field control in real reverberant environments. Inspired by methods in polynomial control theory, a unified framework for acoustic modeling and filter design is developed. READ MORE

  3. 3. Nonlinear Control of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles : Systems With an Attitude

    Author : Marcus Greiff; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nonlinear Control; Lyapunov Methods; Aerospace; Aerial Vehicles; Output Feedback; Control Theory;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the general problem of controlling rigid-body systems through space, with a special focus on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Several promising UAV control algorithms have been developed over the past decades, enabling truly astounding feats of agility when combined with modern sensing technologies. READ MORE

  4. 4. Active Control of Propeller-Induced Noise in Aircraft : Algorithms & Methods

    Author : Sven Johansson; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; active control of sound; active noise control; anc; actuator individual normalized filtered-x lms; filtered-x lms algorithm; newton algorithm; complex lms; multireference algorithm; leaky lms; control effort weighting; feedforward control; feedback contro;

    Abstract : In the last decade acoustic noise has become more and more regarded as a problem. In cars, boats, trains and aircraft, low-frequency noise reduces comfort. Lightweight materials and more powerful engines are used in high-speed vehicles, resulting in a general increase in interior noise levels. READ MORE

  5. 5. On Reverberation Enhancement in Auditoria

    Author : Peter Svensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; active sound field control; room acoustics; reverberation enhancement; listening tests; subjective effects; sound-reinforcement; feedback systems; feedback control; computer modelling of acoustics in enclosures; modulation; electro acoustics; time-varying filters;

    Abstract : The analysis of electroacoustic systems for reverberation enhancement in auditoria is the topic of this thesis. Such systems have been developed since the 50's and been commercially available since then as well. During the 80's several new system ideas have been presented but there are still some open questions that are addressed here. READ MORE
