Abstract

The invention provides a head-related transfer function (HRTF) frequency-division modeling method based on spherical harmonic expansion, and the method comprises the steps: extracting a valley point of a mid-vertical plane HRTF amplitude spectrum, and analyzing the center frequency of the valley point; obtaining a target frequency band in combination with the distribution of the valley point center frequency and the division mode of the equivalent rectangular bandwidth; performing decomposition of different orders on the HRTF amplitude spectrum by using spherical harmonic expansion, and obtaining spherical harmonic coefficients of spherical harmonic primary functions corresponding to different orders through a least square method; according to the frequency range of the target frequency band, performing higher-order reservation on the spherical harmonic coefficient of the frequency point in the frequency band; and based on the reserved spherical harmonic coefficient, obtaining an HRTF amplitude spectrum corresponding to the target angle by using spherical harmonic inverse transformation. According to the spherical harmonic modeling method based on the HRTF amplitude spectrum, higher-order coefficient retention is carried out on a target frequency band influencing binaural sound source positioning, and the purpose of HRTF modeling by using fewer coefficients is achieved.
