This paper describes the application of a passive noise cancellation method to a prototype inductor-inductor-capacitor (LLC) resonant converter by placing a compensation winding in a transformer to reduce common mode noise. The connection method for the compensation winding is investigated. A circuit analysis is implemented for the displacement currents between the primary and secondary windings in the transformer. The analyzed displacement currents are verified by performing a circuit simulation and a proper compensation winding connection that reduces common mode noise is found. The measurement results show that common mode noise is reduced effectively up to 20 dB in the 1 to 7 MHz frequency region for the prototype LLC resonant converter by using the proposed passive noise cancellation method.

In a passive sonar, the improvement of detection performance by using noise cancellation is usually a important problem. In this paper, we have analyzed the own-ship noise cancellation in the two operation modes which are used in the HMS system. In the operator mode, an adaptive line enhancer(ALE) is applied to improve the tonal detection by using broadband noise cancellation and the normalized least mean square(NLMS) algorithm is applied to the design of an adaptive filter. The reference input that is correlated with a primary input can be used to remove the noise incident on the observation directionin the automatic mode. Computer simulations with real sea that data show that the proposed adaptive noise canceller has good performance in passive detection under HMS operation.

Passive noise reduction is a classical approach to attenuate industrial noise. But Active noise cancellation has several advantages over the passive noise cancellation. Such a system offers a better low frequency performance with a smaller and lighter system. This paper presents an active closed loop control system which consists of an controller for inverting and compensating the phase delay, an microphone for picking up the external noise, and loudspeaker for radiating the acoustic anti-phase signal to reduce external noise. The noise in the phase delay covered from 80$^{\circ}$ to 270$^{\circ}$ tends to be reduced. The degree of noise cancellation obtainable with this system reaches value about 17㏈.

공군 조종사들이 비행 중에 겪는 지속적이고 강도 높은 소음은 조종사의 생리적(physiological) 및 심리적(psychological) 상태에 부정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 이는 조종사의 비행 능력(performance)에 부정적인 영향을 주게 되며 임무 완수 및 비행 안전을 저해시키는 치명적인 결과로 이어질 수 있다. 대한민국 공군은 조종사들의 청력 보호를 위해 수동 소음 감쇠(Passive Noise Cancellation, PNC) 및 능동 소음 감쇠(Active Noise Cancellation, ANC) 기술이 적용된 헤드셋 및 헬멧을 사용 중이다. 그러나, 소음 저감 기술이 조종사의 청력 보호, 비행 능력, 및 비행 안전에 미치는 효용성에 대한 공군 조종사의 인식은 아직 연구된 바가 없다. 따라서 본 연구는 소음과 관련된 이론적 배경을 고찰하였고, 이후 설문조사를 통해 공군 조종사들(n=154)의 조종석 내 소음 및 소음 감쇠 기술에 대한 인식을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 능동 소음 감쇠(ANC) 기술이 적용된 헤드셋 및 헬멧의 사용은 소음이 조종사의 생리적 상태에 미치는 영향에는 유의미한 효과가 없지만(p=0.402), 심리적 상태에 미치는 영향은 유의미하게 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다(p<0.001). 따라서, 능동 소음 감쇠(ANC) 기술이 적용된 비행 헤드셋 및 헬멧 사용의 필요성을 강조하였고, 이를 통해 조종사의 비행 능력(performance) 저하 방지 및 비행 안전 증진에 기여하고자 한다.

ANC technic can overcome the limited performance of passive noise control at the low frequency range. But it has the local quiet control region in general. In this paper, it is discussed that the global noise control in a circular duct using a ring type smart foam and a porous material. LMS algorithm and RLS algorithm are used to find optimal orders of cancellation path. Experiments are performed to compare the efficiency of RLS algorithm with that of LMS algorithm.

Passive noise reduction is a classical approach to attenuate industrial noise, and an active noise cancellation has several advantages over the passive noise cancellation. The active noise reduction system offers a better low frequency performance with a smaller and lighter system. This paper presents a simple active closed loop control system which consists of an controller for inverting and compensating the phase delay, a microphone for picking up the external noise, and a loudspeaker for radiating the acoustic out of phase signal to reduce the external noise, and external noise can be reduced after compensating the phase difference to be $180^{\circ}$ in the frequency of maximum value in the amplitude response. The noise of the phase delay covered from $50^{\circ}\;to\;310^{\circ}$ tends to be reduced in the active noise control system and it is possible to obtain a noise cancelling of up to approximately 20[dB] at the ears in the enclosurer.

In this paper is presented passive-active noise control in a duct using a ring-type smart foam. The ring-type smart foam is comprised of a PVDF film embedded in elastic noise control foam of lining shape. The embeddedPVDF element acts as an actuator to reduce noise at lower frequencies and the foam absorbs noise at higher frequencies. By implementing an adaptive filtered-x LMS algorithm, experiments are performed to reduce both tonal and broadband noise in a duct with one end closed and the other end open.

This paper presents the analysis and design of an active electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter (AEF) for the common-mode (CM) noise reduction of switching power converters. The features of the several types of AEFs are discussed and compared in terms of implementation. The feed-forward AEF with a voltage-sensing and voltage-cancellation (VSVC) structure is implemented for an LLC resonant converter to replace a multiple-stage passive EMI filter and thereby reduce CM noise. The characteristics and performance of the VSVC-type AEF are investigated through theoretical and experimental works.

본 논문은 견인선(tow-ship)에서 발생하는 자체 잡음을 제거하여 수중 신호처리 시스템에서 표적 탐지(target detection)와 표적 식별(target identification) 등의 성능 향상을 위하여 표적 방향으로 형성된 빔의 출력을 원시 입력신호(primary input)로 사용하고 견인선 방향으로 형성된 빔의 출력을 참고 입력신호(reference input)로 사용한 적응 잡음 제거기(adaptive noise canceller)에 대해 연구하였다. 잡음 제거를 위해 사용되는 계수들은 LMS(Least Mean Square) 알고리듬을 이용하여 조정하였다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 TDL(Tapped-Delay Line) 구조와 LAT(LATtice) 구조를 갖는 적응 잡음 제거기 성능을 여러 가지 환경에서 비교, 관찰하였다. 두 알고리듬을 사용할 경우, 자체 잡음이 어떠한 형태로 나타나더라도 제거시킬 수 있음을 보여 주었으나 고유값 분포율(eigenvalue spread ratio)이 큰 경우에는 LMS-LAT가 LMS-TDL보다 수렴 속도뿐만 아니라 성능면에서도 우수함을 보였다.
