ABSTRACT:
An active vibration control system including a sensor responsive to a source of vibration and which provides an output signal representative of the vibrations; at least one actuator positioned to impart canceling vibrations to the source of vibrations based on an input signal; a correction subsystem responsive to the actuator for estimating the sensor output in the absence of the canceling vibrations and which outputs a corrected output signal representative only of the vibrations emanating from the source; and a state space predictor responsive to the corrected output signal for determining the input signal to the actuator based on variations in the corrected output signal to better control vibrations especially in chaotic systems.
