Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for generating harmonic overtones by multiplying the frequency of an audio signal. The invention also relates to methods and devices for enhancing low frequency components of an audio signal using the generated overtones. Background technique
[0002] In audio systems such as small-component stereo systems and flat-panel television receivers, small-diameter speakers are used, and an enclosure accommodating the speakers (ie, a speaker box) is also small in size. This loudspeaker has a very high lowest reproducible frequency (lowest reproducible frequency) f0, about 100 Hz or more.
[0003] Generally, when a low-frequency component not higher than the lowest reproducible frequency f0 is supplied to the speaker, as the frequency decreases, the output sound pressure level of the fundamental-wave component decreases and the distortion component (harmonic ( The number of harmonic-wave) components) ...
