Abstract

In apparatus and method for actively reducing a periodic vibration and/or noise, a divergence determinator is provided in which a presence or absence of a higher order divergence of a control of the reduction of the periodic vibration and/or noise is determined on the basis of a sum of two sampled values of at least one of either a drive signal y or a residual wave (vibration or noise) signal e, phases of the two sampled values being mutually deviated from each other by an approximately half period of a fundamental order of the corresponding drive or residual wave signal.
