20150131826 | AUDIO PRECOMPENSATION CONTROLLER DESIGN WITH PAIRWISE LOUDSPEAKER CHANNEL SIMILARITY - A method for determining an audio precompensation controller for an associated sound generating system comprising a total of N≧2 loudspeakers, each having a loudspeaker input. The audio precompensation controller has a number L≧2 inputs for L input signal(s) and N outputs for N controller output signals, one to each loudspeaker. It is relevant to: estimate (S | 05-14-2015 |
20140153744 | Audio Precompensation Controller Design Using a Variable Set of Support Loudspeakers - Disclosed is a method and a system to determine an audio precompensation controller for an associated sound generating system including a total of N≧2 loudspeakers, each having a loudspeaker input. The audio precompensation controller has a number L≧1 inputs for L input signals and N outputs for N controller output signals, one to each loudspeaker. For each one of at least a subset of the N loudspeaker inputs, an impulse response is estimated at each measurement position. For each one of the L input signal(s), a selected one of the N loudspeakers is specified as a primary loudspeaker and a selected subset S including at least one of the N loudspeakers as support loudspeaker(s). | 06-05-2014 |
20100305725 | Sound field control in multiple listening regions - A scheme to design an audio precompensation controller for a multichannel audio system, with a prescribed number N of loudspeakers in prescribed positions so that listeners positioned in any of P>1 spatially extended listening regions should be given the illusion of being in another acoustic environment that has L sound sources located at prescribed positions in a prescribed room acoustics. The method provides a unified joint solution to the problems of equalizer design, crossover design, delay and level calibration, sum-response optimization and up-mixing. A multi-input multi-output audio precompensation controller is designed for an associated sound generating system including a limited number of loudspeaker inputs for emulating a number of virtual sound sources. Method includes: estimating, for each loudspeaker input signals, an impulse response at each of a set of measurement positions that cover the P listening regions; specifying a target impulse response (target stages) for each virtual sound source at each measurement position; and determining adjustable filter parameters of the audio precompensation controller so that a criterion function is optimized. | 12-02-2010 |
20090238380 | SPATIALLY ROBUST AUDIO PRECOMPENSATION - A discrete-time audio precompensation filter is designed based on a linear model that describes the dynamic response of a sound generating system at p>1 listening positions. The filter construction is based on providing information (S2) representative of n non-minimum phase zeros {z,} that are outside of the stability region |z|= | 09-24-2009 |
