Filtered-x generalized mixed norm (FXGMN) algorithm for active noise control.

The standard adaptive filtering algorithm with a single error norm exhibits slow convergence rate and poor noise reduction performance under specific environments. To overcome this drawback, a filtered-x generalized mixed norm (FXGMN) algorithm for active noise control (ANC) system is proposed. The FXGMN algorithm is developed by using a convex mixture of l p and l q norms as the cost function that it can be viewed as a generalized version of the most existing adaptive filtering algorithms, and it will reduce to a specific algorithm by choosing certain parameters. Especially, it can be used to solve the ANC under Gaussian and non-Gaussian noise environments (including impulsive noise with symmetric α -stable ( S α S ) distribution). To further enhance the algorithm performance, namely convergence speed and noise reduction performance, a convex combination of the FXGMN algorithm (C-FXGMN) is presented. Moreover, the computational complexity of the proposed algorithms is analyzed, and a stability condition for the proposed algorithms is provided. Simulation results show that the proposed FXGMN and C-FXGMN algorithms can achieve better convergence speed and higher noise reduction as compared to other existing algorithms under various noise input conditions, and the C-FXGMN algorithm outperforms the FXGMN.
