This paper investigates active noise control of ducts using filtered-x least mean square(FXLMS) algorithms to reduce noise transmission. Single channel FXLMS(SFXLSM) and multiple channel FXLMS(MFXLMS) algorithms are used to implement the active control systems. The transmission loss is significantly increased by SFXLMS but the sound pressure level(SPL) at the upstream of the error sensor is increased while that of downstream is very low. This increase of the upstream SPL causes the duct wall to vibrate and so to radiate noise. To prevent the wall vibration generated by the sound field upstream, global sound field control is required. To reduce SPL globally along the duct, active noise control using MFXLMS is implemented. We can then be obtained globally reduced SPL. It is found experimentally that the vibration level, and so the radiated noise level, can be reduced by the active noise control using MFXLMS.
