Abstract

Coherence optimization is provided in an active adaptive control system. The adaptive control model (16) has a model input (18) receiving a reference signal (8) from a reference input transducer (4), an error input (20) receiving an error signal (14) from an error transducer (10), and a model output (22) outputting a correction signal (24) to an output transducer (26) to introduce a control signal matching the system input signal (6) to minimize the error at the error input. Coherence in the system is determined, and a coherence filter (27; 28; 29) is provided according to the determined coherence. Preferably, one or more of the error signal (14), reference signal (8) and correction signal (24) is coherence filtered.
