Embodiment 1

[0068] Embodiment 1 of the present invention proposes a sound source localization method using a mobile ring microphone array, and the specific steps include:

[0069] Step 1) Acquisition of frequency domain separation signal X q,m (k); including:

[0070] Step 1-1) as figure 1 As shown, a circular microphone array is set, the number of microphones is M=9, the microphones are located on a circle with a semi-longitude of r=6cm, and the circular array is placed parallel to the ground. The circular array is moved to Q different spatial positions sequentially and measured. At the qth spatial position, the time-domain signal collected at the mth microphone is x q,m (t); q=1,...,Q; m=1,...,M;

[0071] Step 1-2) For time domain signal x q,m (t) Perform framing, windowing and Fourier transform in sequence to obtain the corresponding frequency separation signal X q,m (k);

Abstract

The invention discloses a sound source localization method using a mobile ring microphone array, the method is realized by a ring microphone array, the number of microphones in the array is M, and the array is placed parallel to the ground; the method includes: The center moves to Q different spatial positions, and the height does not change; obtain the frequency separation signal collected by the mth microphone at the qth spatial position; estimate the local sound field coefficient of each spatial position according to the M frequency separation signals; use According to the spatial transformation relationship of the sound field coefficient, the global sound field coefficient of each frequency point is estimated according to the obtained local sound field coefficient; the sound source direction is estimated according to the obtained global sound field coefficient. The method of the invention fully collects sound field information in a space range much larger than the aperture of the array by moving a circular microphone array, thereby improving the performance of sound source localization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of array signal processing, in particular to a sound source localization method and system using a moving circular microphone array. Background technique [0002] Sound source localization has a wide range of applications in smart speakers, robots, video conferencing, and security. Traditional sound source localization methods in the array element domain are divided into two categories: indirect and direct methods. The indirect method first calculates the relative time delay from the sound source to each array element, and then determines the direction of the sound source according to the geometric shape of the array; the direct method needs to calculate the loss function on a series of candidate directions, and then estimate the most likely direction according to Loss functions can be divided into controllable response power methods, maximum likelihood methods and subspace-like methods. [0003] Different from the ...
