Abstract

The invention relates to a thin film type microphone array, comprising a piezoelectric electret thin film and a circuit board component, wherein the piezoelectric electret thin film is a porous thin polymer film; electrode arrays are correspondingly arranged at two sides of the piezoelectric electret thin film; a microphone circuit as well as a circuit board input end and a circuit board output end electrically connected with the microphone circuit are arranged on the circuit board component; and the circuit board input end is electrically connected with the electrode arrays at two sides of the piezoelectric electret thin film. In the thin film type microphone array, a piezoelectric electret made of the porous thin polymer film is adopted as a microphone unit, thereby combining the advantage of efficient reception of the microphone array with the advantages of lightness, thinness, softness, simple structure, strong reliability, low cost and the like of the polymer piezoelectric electret, therefore, the application range of the microphone array is greatly widened, and the microphone array becomes one of choices for replacing a traditional microphone array in the environment of video conferences, vehicle-mounted audio systems, large-scale meeting houses and the like.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to the field of microphones, in particular to a thin-film microphone array. 【Background technique】 [0002] In the process of picking up the target speech, it will inevitably be interfered by external environmental noise and other speakers. If the interference is too strong, the listener will find it harsh or even unable to hear the target voice. In view of this situation, methods of enhancing speech and removing background noise are usually used to improve system performance. At present, there are many methods of speech enhancement, which can be divided into single microphone system and microphone array system according to the number of microphones used. Many researchers have proposed to use one or two microphones to remove noise, but due to the complexity of the actual noise, none of them can meet the satisfactory noise reduction requirements. The array signal processing adopts the idea of ​​generalized side lobe cancellati...
