A new insight into the secondary path modeling problem in active noise control

The close relationship between the feedforward ANC system and the stereo acoustic echo cancellation system is revealed in this paper. Accordingly, the convergence behavior of the ANC system can be analyzed by investigating the joint auto-correlation matrix of the reference and the filtered reference signal. It is proved that the straightforward secondary path modeling can be carried out without the injection of any additive noise as long as the control filter is of a sufficiently long length. Furthermore, by taking advantage of the time-varying characteristic of the control filter, effective modeling of the secondary path can be even achieved without any restriction on the control filter length.
