The auxiliary random noise technique is popular for online secondary path modeling during adaptive active noise control operation. This paper proposes a simplified variable step-size strategy and an effective auxiliary noise power scheduling strategy for the multi-channel filtered-X least mean square algorithm. Through a defined indirect error signal, the proposed method can guarantee every online secondary path modeling filter has its own exclusive variable step-size strategy to update their coefficients, and every injected noise has its own exclusive scheduling strategy considering all of the corresponding online secondary path modeling filters. The proposed method can improve the adaptive performance and simplifies the complexity of multi-channel adaptive active noise control system. Computer simulations show that the proposed method gives much better noise reduction and secondary path modeling accuracy at a somewhat faster convergence rate comparing with the competing methods %K Adaptive active noise control %K online secondary path modeling %K variable step-size strategy %K auxiliary noise power scheduling strategy %K multi-channel filtered-X least mean square %U https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/1461348419831119
