A survey on active noise control in the past decade–Part II: Nonlinear systems

Abstract Part I of this paper reviewed the development of the linear active noise control (ANC) technique in the past decade. However, ANC systems might have to deal with some nonlinear components and the performance of linear ANC techniques may degrade in this scenario. To overcome this limitation, nonlinear ANC (NLANC) algorithms were developed. In Part II, we review the development of NLANC algorithms during the last decade. The contributions of heuristic ANC algorithms are outlined. Moreover, we emphasize recent advances of NLANC algorithms, such as spline ANC algorithms, kernel adaptive filters, and nonlinear distributed ANC algorithms. Then, we present recent applications of ANC technique including linear and nonlinear perspectives. Future research challenges regarding ANC techniques are also discussed.
