Abstract

An active noise controller includes a prediction filter which comprises a delayer for delaying the noise or error detection signal by a predetermined period of time, a first adaptive filter for processing the output of the delayer to deliver its periodic component, and a subtractor for subtracting the output of the first adaptive filter from the noise detection signal to deliver a random component of the signal. More specifically, the prediction filter is capable of dividing the noise or error detection signal into two, periodic and random, components. In addition, two, second and third, adaptive filters are provided for processing the periodic and random components respectively. Accordingly, the second and third adaptive filters become responsive precisely to their respective periodic and random components regardless of the ratio in level between the two components, whereby any undesired noise consisting of the two discrete components will be suppressed.
