ABSTRACT=<p><bold>Introduction:</bold> With the rapid development of the gearbox manufacturing industry, the internal gear response has received attention, and the control of meshing noise during gear operation has been studied. Conventional noise reduction methods are usually based on gear order, and with the improvement of gearbox manufacturing technology, this method gradually becomes difficult to cope with a wide range of data.</p><p><bold>Methods:</bold> To expand the search domain of noise control systems, this study combines gear response and gear order, and adds the condition of gear uniform load. For common noise reduction problems in composite systems, this study improves the time-varying stiffness excitation mechanism and generates a coupled system.</p><p><bold>Results:</bold> Finally, this study conducts experiments on the Gmnoi dataset and compares it with three systems including quantum genetics to verify the superiority of the proposed system. The suppression effects of the four systems on gear meshing noise were 98.4%, 95.8%, 93.5%, and 92.7%, respectively. Their highest performance for different gear groups was 623, 514, 406, and 423, respectively.</p><p><bold>Discussion:</bold> The experimental results showed that the proposed coupling system has strong robustness and high accuracy in controlling gearbox meshing noise, and is of great significance in reducing noise pollution and improving the working environment of the gearbox.</p>
