In this paper, multichannel affine projection (AP) algorithms and fast transversal filters (FTF) are introduced for active noise control. A comparative practical study of the mentioned algorithms with the filtered‐X LMS (F‐XLMS) and the recursive least squares (RLS) is presented for multichannel systems. This study is based on simulations using real data and is mainly focused on: their computational cost and memory load, their convergence properties, their stability and their ability to create quiet zones around listener ears. Simulations show that algorithms based on FTF exhibit a good trade‐off between computational cost and convergence speed. On the other hand, those based on RLS are slightly faster but they present higher computational load and stability problems in their practical implementation. It has also been observed that algorithms based on low order AP algorithms present less computational cost than the FTF‐based ones but a slightly slower convergence speed. Therefore these algorithms show a desirable behaviour and versatility for practical applications. Finally, results obtained in a real‐time multichannel system validate the use of AP algorithms in practical applications as an alternative to the classical multichannel F‐XLMS since they provide meaningful attenuation levels, lower convergence time and similar computational cost. Additionally, as simulations indicated, AP algorithm performance can be easily improved increasing its projection order and using fast versions. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
