Designing Practical Filters For Sound Field Reconstruction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Multichannel sound field reproduction techniques, such as Wave Field Synthesis (WFS) and Sound Field Reconstruction (SFR), define loudspeaker filters in the frequency domain. However, in order to use these techniques in practical systems, one needs to convert these frequency-domain characteristics to practical and efficient time-domain digital filters. Additional limitation of SFR comes from the fact that it uses a numerical matrix pseudoinversion procedure, where the obtained filters are sensitive to numerical errors when the system matrix has a high condition number. This paper describes physically-motivated modifications of the SFR approach that allow for mitigating conditioning problems and frequency-domain loudspeaker filter smoothing that allows for designing short time-domain filters while maintaining high sound field reproduction accuracy. It also provides comparisons of sound field reproduction accuracy of WFS and SFR using the obtained discrete-time filters.

Multi-path interference due to boundary reflection in shallow water acoustic communication poses a major obstacle to reliable and high-speed underwater communication system. In this study, initially 3D variations of field data such as sound speed, temperature and salinity in horizontal transects of the Strait of Hormuz were analyzed using the ROPME data. Later, data on typical sound speed ...
متن کاملReconstruction of nonuniformly sampled bandlimited signals by means of digital fractional delay filters
This paper considers the problem of reconstructing a class of nonuniformly sampled bandlimited signals of which a special case occurs in, e.g., time-interleaved analog-to-digital converter (ADC) systems due to time-skew errors. To this end, we propose a synthesis system composed of digital fractional delay filters. The overall system (i.e., nonuniform sampling and the proposed synthesis system)...

This paper presents a new method for designing two-channel IIR linear phase filter banks that satisfy both the perfect reconstruction and stability conditions, using allpass filters. Using the perfect reconstruction condition for filter banks, we first offer a class of structurally perfect reconstruction implementations. Since the proposed filter banks must satisfy the perfect reconstruction co...

This paper deals with reconstruction of nonuniformly sampled bandlimited continuous-time signals using time-varying discretetime finite-length impulse response (FIR) filters. The main theme of the paper is to show how a slight oversampling should be utilized for designing the reconstruction filters in a proper manner. Based on a time-frequency function, it is shown that the reconstruction probl...
متن کاملSpatial sound generation using HRTF created by the use of recursive filters
Generating spatial sound and playing it through headphones is demanding task, since two important factors, ILD – Inter-aural Level Difference and ITD – Inter-aural Time Difference, need to be taken into consideration. The problem can be solved by the use of Head Related Transfer Functions (HRTF) which represent a set of empirically measured functions, one for each spatial direction. The complet...
