A spline adaptive filter (SAF) based nonlinear active noise control (ANC) system is proposed in this paper. The SAF consists of a linear network of adaptive weights in a cascade with an adaptive nonlinear network. The nonlinear network, in turn consists of an adaptive look-up table followed by a spline interpolation network and forms an adaptive activation function. An update rule has been derived for the proposed ANC system, which not only updates the weights of the linear network, but also updates the nature of the activation function. Linear Network is based on improvement in FxLMS...

The main purpose of this book is to provide easy understanding of common named reactions to students. The overall content of this book is presented in such a way that students can easily understand the named reactions and their mechanisms. We have also included relevant examples from research articles with proper citations. 75 crucial named reactions with their mechanism are described in this book.The book will be helpful for B.Sc. (Chemistry) and M.Sc. (Chemistry) students. Further, it will also be helpful for NEET, IIT- JEE, JAM, NET, GATE and other competitive exams.
