Abstract

Previous research has shown that by utilising headtracking to update the head position and the corresponding plant responses in an active noise cancelling headrest application improves the performance of the controller. Although it is desirable for the headtracker to track the user’s head as accurately as possible, there is a trade-off to be paid in the complexity of the calibration process when utilising a large number of plant responses. This paper presents an investigation into the effect of tracking resolution for a local active noise control system operating in the presence of head movements. It is shown, through numerical simulations, that increasing the tracking resolution increases the upper frequency of stable control performance. It is also shown that the tracking resolution is more sensitive for some geometrical regions than others, which may inform the design of an efficient headtracking calibration procedure.
