Control of an acoustic mode by a digitally created Nonlinear Electroacoustic Absorber at low excitation levels: Analytical and Experimental results
Résumé
Noise reduction becomes important to raise acoustical comfort and to prevent the population from additional
disorders. The Impedance Control concept lies on a loudspeaker collocated to microphones, and equipped of
a processor, named as Electroacoustic Absorber. By calculating and injecting the electrical current into the
loudspeaker coil based on the sensed pressure, one can be able to provide a desired linear behavior for any
loudspeaker. Passive nonlinear systems are efficient for large frequency widths, both in transient and stationary
regimes, but usually activated at high excitation amplitudes. As a result, our work focuses on the creation of a
Nonlinear Electroacoustic Resonator (NER) at low excitation amplitudes. This work is based on an innovative
method, allowing to digitally program any nonlinear desired behavior for all excitation amplitudes. It is a
Real Time Integration (RTI) method, where the current is calculated at each time step, based on the measured
pressure. To show the advantages of this device, a NER is coupled with an acoustic mode of a tube at normal
incidence. Multiples nonlinear behaviors are shown at low excitation amplitudes, and compared with linear
control devices. Analytical and Experimental results will be presented and discussed.
