Assuming that the desired acoustic imaging frequency range in this example is 10k~30k, then The value is 0.034m.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the array arrangement means that a plurality of acoustic sensors 22 are arranged in a plurality of concentric circular rings.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a camera 24 is arranged at the center of the circular ring on the fixing plate 21 .

[0028] In this embodiment, the sound insulation cover 1 is made of hard sound insulation material. In this embodiment, the hard sound insulation material is specifically made of 1.5mm aluminum alloy, which has the characteristics of light weight and good sound insulation performance.

[0029] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the soundproof enclosure 1 is wrapped with a sound insulation material layer, the outer wall is wrapped with a sound absorption material layer, and the rear cavity of the soundproof enclosure 1 is filled with sound absorption material.

In this embodiment, 1mm sound insulation material and 8mm sound absorption material are preferred, such as environmentally friendly damping sound insulation felt and polyester fiber sound absorbing cotton; S9, determine whether the overall mass of the sound array sound insulation device meets the rated load index of the drone. If the overall mass of the sound array sound insulation device does not meet the rated load index of the drone, jump to step S1 to adjust the design of the sound array sound insulation device. Otherwise, it is determined that the design of the sound array sound insulation device is completed, and the process ends and exits. Through this step, the quality of each component is comprehensively considered to ensure that the overall mass of the sound insulation cover does not exceed the rated load of the drone. If it exceeds, consider replacing the drone, reducing the weight of the structure, and other methods to optimize the design.

[0033] The method for designing a sound array sound insulation device of this embodiment utilizes the spectrum difference between drone noise and discharge point noise, as well as the spatial position difference relative to the sound array, and adopts a combination of sound insulation and sound absorption to design a reasonable sound insulation structure.
