Abstract

Active headrest is an essential application for active noise control, capable of reducing low-frequency disturbance around an error microphone. However, in most cases, attaching microphones to ears is not feasible and noise attenuation performance is vulnerable to plant response variations. This paper presents a multichannel feedback active headrest system combined with the virtual microphone method and a manually adjustable headrest structure for users. Applying the virtual microphone method can transfer the attenuation target from the distant microphone to the ear. The proposed adjustable headrest structure allows for secondary loudspeakers and the corresponding microphone to be moved as a single unit while maintaining the relative distances between the secondary loudspeakers and microphones constant to ensure that the related plant responses are consistent. Experiments were conducted to validate the performance against multi-sinusoidal machine noise. The results demonstrate the benefits of the proposed structure over conventional structures. Additionally, the applicability of the three commonly used virtual sensing methods (the auxiliary filter method, remote microphone method, and virtual microphone method) in various practical conditions was verified when using the proposed adjustable headrest structure. Furthermore, 10 volunteers were involved in the evaluation, and the robustness of the proposed system for various users was confirmed.
