With respect to the reduction of the interior noise of railway vehicles, most of the countermeasures taken have been mainly passive procedures based on the mass law. As to application of the 'active noise control' to railway vehicles, only a few experiential tests have been carried out so far.

Moreover, through evaluating in which the proposed noise reduction system as applied to a deck of the Shinkansen, the effectiveness of the system will be apparent.
