Berkhoff, A.P. de Boer, A. Publication year 2017 Abstract This paper studies a lumped model of an acoustic source with a relatively small thickness and high bending stiffness. Voice coil and piezoelectric actuators are used to drive moving components of the acoustic source. Feedback and feedforward damping control techniques are used to actively obtain a smooth frequency response, especially at low frequencies. Such a compensation scheme generally leads to amplification of the lower frequencies and may result in a significant electrical input power. In addition, a part of the input power is stored in mechanical and acoustical elements of the acoustic source. The effectiveness of energy recovery from the reactive components of the acoustic source is evaluated to improve the overall performance of the acoustic source, and to decrease the amount of required input power. © 2017 Institute of Noise Control Engineering.
