Time–frequency-domain filtered-x LMS algorithm for active noise control

This paper presents a time–frequency-domain filtered-x LMS (FXLMS) algorithm for active noise control (ANC) based on the short-time Fourier transform (STFT). We show that proposed algorithm has much reduced computational complexity and better convergence performance, as compared with the time-domain FXLMS algorithm. Additionally, computer simulations show that a time–frequency-domain FXLMS algorithm for ANC is effective in canceling non-stationary noise while a frequency-domain FXLMS algorithm remains inadequate at this task.
