The least-mean squares (LMS) adaptive feedforward algorithm is used widely for vibration and noise cancellation. If reference signals become large enough to saturate that actuators, the filter coefficients in such algorithms can diverge. The leaky LMS method limits the controller effort by augmenting the objective function by a weighted control effort, and is known to attain good performance and avoid growth of filter coefficients for well-chosen weights. We propose an algorithm that seeks to directly minimize the mean-square cost in the presence of saturation. We derive the true stochastic gradient of the cost for systems with saturation with respect to the filter coefficients and obtain an adaptation rule very close to that of the filtered-x algorithm, but in the proposed algorithm, the reference filter is a time-varying modification of the secondary channel. In simulations of an active vibration isolation system with actuator limits subject to random ground vibration, the leaky LMS algorithm attains its best performance with actuation weights small enough to allow significant actuator saturation but large enough to prevent divergence. The proposed algorithm attains performance better that attained by the leaky LMS algorithm, and does not require the selection of weights.

A new kind of vibration screening material, Duxseal, with a high damping ratio is proposed to be used as an active vibration barrier in the free field. To investigate the influence of width, thickness, and embedded depth of using Duxseal on vibration reduction, numerical studies are performed using a three-dimensional (3D) semianalytical boundary element method (BEM) combined with a thin-layer method (TLM). The isolation effectiveness of Duxseal in ground vibration is also compared with the traditional wave impeding block (WIB). The numerical results show that Duxseal performed exceedingly well in screening ground vibrations in the free field. The effectiveness of the vibration isolation increases with the increase in the width, thickness, and embedded depth of the Duxseal material, within a certain range, under harmonic vertical excitation. In addition, Duxseal is much more effective for isolating ground vibration than the traditional WIB. The performance of Duxseal in isolating ground vibration is relatively stable along the distance away from the vibration source, while the amplitude attenuation ratio bounces upward when the distance away from the vibration source increases for the WIB isolation system.

For the purpose of suppressing ground vibration produced by vibrating machines, such as forging hammers, press machines, etc., this paper presents an active vibration isolation method. Unlike conventional isolators, the active isolator proposed in this paper permits rigid support of the machines. First, the principle of the active isolation method is shown, and the system equations are derived. Secondly, the characteristics and the design parameters of the active isolation system are presented. Thirdly, from the point of view of the feedforward control method, the dynamic compensators are designed so as to sufficiently suppress the exciting force. Finally, an experiment is carried out to demonstrate that the active isolator is applicable for suppressing the ground vibration.

The step size of least mean square (LMS) algorithm is significant for its performance. To be specific, small step size can get small excess mean square error but results in slow convergence. However, large step size may cause instability. Many variable step size least mean square (VSSLMS) algorithms have been developed to enhance the control performance. In this paper, a new VSSLMS was proposed based on Kwong’s algorithm to evaluate the robustness. The approximate analysis of dynamic and steady-state performance of this developed VSSLMS algorithm was given. An active vibration control system of piezoelectric cantilever beam was established to verify the performance of the VSSLMS algorithms. By comparing with the current VSSLMS algorithms, the proposed method has better performance in active vibration control applications.

Maglev actuator is excellent for active vibration isolation, with non-contact form, low stiffness and rapid response. However, the actuators nonlinearity has to be restrained by the control algorithm. In this paper, the nonlinearity of maglev actuator was studied through theoretical analysis and experiment. An improved multi-channel FxLMS(filtered-x least mean square) algorithm was proposed, which considers the nonlinearity-induced harmonic frequency as extra line-spectrum excitation to control. Experiments showed that the improved FxLMS algorithm could efficiently compensate the nonlinearity of the actuators, thus had better effect when used in active vibration isolation system with non-linear actuators, compared with the traditional FxLMS method.

Abstract This study presents a variant of least mean square (LMS) algorithm, i.e., momentum LMS (M-LMS), with faster convergence speed for measuring the system parameter of linear as well as nonlinear control autoregressive autoregressive (CARAR) models. The M-LMS effectively exploits the input/output data by utilizing the previous gradients information in update rule to avoid trapping in local minimum (MNM) and yields better convergence behavior than conventional LMS approach. The speedy convergence of M-LMS is achieved by increasing the proportion of previous gradients but at the cost of little compromise in final steady-state behavior. The correctness of the M-LMS is established by effective optimization of the linear as well as nonlinear CARAR model identification. The robustness of the scheme is verified through accurate measurement of CARAR systems parameters for various noise levels. The statistical analyses based on multiple independent trials through proximity measures in terms of fitness, mean squared error, and Nash Sutcliffe efficiency further validated the superior performance of M-LMS for identification of CARAR models.

The two-point non-uniformity correction based on Least mean square (LMS) algorithm which was proposed by Suxia Xing need one FPGA processor, one DSP processor and four SRAM chips. This will increase the cost and volume of the whole infrared system. In the LMS algorithm, this paper improves the estimation of the ideal signal, so that it can reduce the influence of blind elements and improve the effect of non-uniformity correction. Besides, this paper realizes the two-point non-uniformity correction based on LMS algorithm with only one FPGA processor and two SRAM chips in the final, this will reduce the volume, weight, cost of the whole infrared system. Comparing with the two-point non-uniformity correction based on one FPGA processor, this paper did not need blackbody with uniform radiation in system. Above all, the method of this paper is useful and practical.

The simulation results showed that: for the active vibration isolation system with regularly vibration source, adopting adaptive filter method of feedforward control has notable effect. The contrast experiment with using the PID controller further verified the simulation results.

In this paper, we develop a modified adaptive combination strategy for the distributed estimation problem over diffusion networks. We still consider the online adaptive combiners estimation problem from the perspective of minimum variance unbiased estimation. In contrast with the classic adaptive combination strategy which exploits orthogonal projection technology, we formulate a non-constrained mean-square deviation (MSD) cost function by introducing Lagrange multipliers. Based on the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) conditions, we derive the fixed-point iteration scheme of adaptive combiners. Illustrative simulations validate the improved transient and steady-state performance of the diffusion least-mean-square LMS algorithm incorporated with the proposed adaptive combination strategy.
