SUMMARY The performance of conventional linear algorithms in active noise control applications deteriorates facing nonlinearities in the system mainly because of loudspeakers. On the other hand, fuzzy logic and neural networks are good candidates to overcome this drawback. In this paper, the acoustic attenuation of noise in a rectangular enclosure with a flexible panel and five rigid walls is presented both theoretically and experimentally using filtered gradient fuzzy neural network (FGFNN) error back propagation algorithm in which the secondary path effect is implemented in derivation of updating rules. Considering this effect in updating rules leads to faster convergence and stability of the active noise control system. On the other hand, the primary path in the investigated system comprises an identified nonlinear model of loudspeaker inside the aforementioned box, parameters of which vary with the input current. The loudspeaker is identified using series‐parallel neural network model identification method. As a comparison, the performance of filtered‐x least mean squares and FGFNN algorithms are compared. It is observed that FGFNN controller exhibits far better results in the presence of loudspeakers with nonlinear behavior in primary path.Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
