Second Order Volterra Inverses for Compensation of Loudspeaker Nonlinearity - Applications of Signal Processing to Audio and Acoustics, 1995., IEEE ASSP Workshop on

چکیده
High quality sound reproduction by loudspeakers is increaringly problematic if the dimensions of the loudspeaker decrease. To produce enough power, large diaphragm excursions are needed which give rise to significant distortions especially at very low frequencies. Instead of improving the mechanical construction of the transducer we apply a feedforward nonlinear digital inverse circuit. Results of two 2nd order Volterra compensators show a significant reduction of the second order harmonics, leaving higher order distortions unchanged. The structure of the realization influences the performance considerably. Two realization structures are considered, and the error caused by the differentiators in the output of the compensators are compared. Both algorithms are implemented in real-time on a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) for on-line testing with the transducer.

متن کاملRobust Time Delay Estimation for Sound Source Localization in Noisy Environments - Applications of Signal Processing to Audio and Acoustics, 1997. 1997 IEEE ASSP Workshop on
This paper addresses the problem of robust localization of a sound source in a wide range of operating environments. We use fractional lower order statistics in the frequency domain of two-sensor measurements to accurately locate the source in impulsive noise. We demonstrate a significant improvement in detection via simulation experiments of a sound source in a-Stable noise. Applications of th...

متن کاملDigital compensation of nonlinear distort ion in loudspeakers
Ideal loudspeakers produce acoustic waves, which are a linear transformation of the electrical input signal. In reality loudspeakers do produce nonlinear distortion as well. This paper presents a method to compensate this distortion in real-time by nonlinear digital signal processing, implemented on a Digital Signal Processor ( i . e . the TMS320C30 DSP). Based on literature, an electrical equi...
