Optimal spatially fixed and moving virtual sensing algorithms for local active noise control.Petersen, Cornelis D. January 2007 (has links)
Local active noise control systems aim to create zones of quiet at specific locations within a sound field. The created zones of quiet generally tend to be small, especially for higher frequencies, and are usually centred at the error sensors. For an observer to experience significant reductions in the noise, the error sensors therefore have to be placed relatively close to an observer’s ears, which is not always feasible or convenient. Virtual sensing methods have been proposed to overcome these problems that have limited the scope of successful local active noise control applications. These methods require non-intrusive sensors that are placed remotely from the desired locations of maximum attenuation. These non-intrusive sensors are used to provide an estimate of the sound pressures at these locations, which can then be minimised by a local active noise control system. This effectively moves the zones of quiet away from the physical locations of the transducers to the desired locations of maximum attenuation, such as a person’s ears. A number of virtual sensing algorithms have been proposed previously. The difference between these algorithms is the structure that is assumed to compute an estimate of the virtual error signals. The question now arises as to whether there is an optimal structure that can be used to solve the virtual sensing problem, which amounts to a linear estimation problem. It is well-known that the Kalman filter provides an optimal structure for solving such problems. An optimal solution to the virtual sensing problem is therefore derived in this thesis using Kalman filtering theory. The proposed algorithm is implemented on an acoustic duct arrangement to demonstrate its effectiveness. The presented experimental results indicate that the zone of quiet was effectively moved away from the physical sensor towards the desired location of maximum attenuation. The previously proposed virtual sensing algorithms have been developed with the aim to create zones of quiet at virtual locations that are assumed spatially fixed within the sound field. Because an observer is very likely to move their head, the desiredlocations of the zones of quiet are generally moving through the sound field rather than being spatially fixed. For effective control, a local active noise control system incorporating a virtual sensing method thus has to be able to create moving zones of quiet that track the observer’s ears. A moving virtual sensing method is therefore developed in this thesis that can be used to estimate the error signals at virtual locations that are moving through the sound field. It is shown that an optimal solution to the moving virtual sensing problem can be derived using Kalman filtering theory. A practical implementation of the developed algorithm is combined with an adaptive feedforward control algorithm and implemented on an acoustic duct arrangement. The presented experimental results illustrate that a narrowband moving zone of quiet that tracks the desired location of maximum attenuation has successfully been created. / http://proxy.library.adelaide.edu.au/login?url= http://library.adelaide.edu.au/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?BBID=1291123 / Thesis (Ph.D.) -- University of Adelaide, School of Mechanical Engineering, 2007.

Motion artifact reduction of electrocardiograms using multiple motion sensors2013 September 1900 (has links)
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a measurement of the electrical signal produced by the heart as it beats. This is a signal very commonly used by medical professionals, as it gives an indication of an individual’s heart rate and can further be used to detect specific abnormalities within the heart. There are a number of sources of noise that can corrupt the ECG signal, the most problematic being that of motion artifacts. As an individual wearing a surface ECG moves, their movements will add noise to the signal. This noise is particularly difficult to remove, as it will change depending on the movements of the user and will often fall in the same spectrum as the ECG signal itself.
The effectiveness of the adaptive filtering method in reducing motion artifacts is investigated using multiple motion sensors on key locations of the body and by combining the motion data through the use of various blind source separation methods. An adaptive filter is a filter that can use a reference signal in order to readjust itself to a constantly changing noise signal and is commonly used to clean ECG signals. The adaptive filter uses noise estimations based on the reference signal as well as previous noise estimations in order to continually clean the noisy signal. Since motion artifacts are based directly off the movements of the user, collected motion data will be directly correlated with the noise being introduced to the ECG, and can therefore be used in the adaptive filter to produce a desirable ECG signal.
