Abstract
An active vibration control (AVC) system includes a shaft-driven gearbox mounted force generator (GMFG) mounted to a main rotor transmission. The GMFGs receive shaft power from an output shaft driven by the main rotor transmission and/or engine-to-transmission gearbox to avoid separate drive motors.
