Microphone array

A microphone array contains multiple microphone capsules whose outputs are electronically combined for directional recording of sound. The directivity and frequency characteristics of the microphone array depend on the number and position of the microphone capsules. In order to obtain the smallest possible microphone array with only a small number of microphone capsules, with nearly uniform directivity and frequency dependence over the audio frequency range, but which is scalable and robust to small mispositioning of the capsules. Microphone arrays with 15 or 21 microphone capsules (K 15,11 ~K 15,35 ,K 21,11 ~K 21,37 ) are arranged on a carrier (T, T') that are located on three similar branches, each branch being provided with the same number of microphone capsules, which are rotated by 120° with respect to each other. Each of the microphone capsules is located at a triangular corner of the L2 grid in a planar isometric coordinate system (forming an equilateral L2 grid) with three axes (L0, L1, L2) that are rotated by 120° with respect to each other.
