“…If the objective is to reduce the total energy in the system, then the location of the error sensors is critical to the performance of the control system. In fact, a significant effort has been devoted to the design and placement of distributed sensors and actuators for the control of sound in enclosures, vibration, and structural acoustic radiation (Bailey and Hubbard, 1985;Burke and Hubbard, 1987Clark and Fuller, 1992a, 1992cCollins et al, 1990Collins et al, , 1992Crawley and de Luis, 1987;Cunefare and Koopmann, 1991;Dimitriadis and Fuller, 1991;Elliott et al, 1987bElliott et al, , 1990Fuller, 1989;Fuller et al, 1990;Fuller, 1992a, 1992b;Lee et al, 1989Lee et al, , 1991Lee, 1990;Lee and Moon, 1990;Miller and Hubbard, 1987;Miller et al, 1990;Naghshineh and Koopmann, 1992;Silcox et al, 1989;Snyder and Hansen, 1991;Sommerfeldt and Scott, 1993;Wang et al, 1991). In the previously listed applications, the ultimate objective is to achieve an adaptive system for appropriate disturbance rejection.…”
