Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present technology mainly relates to the technical field of audio equipment, and in particular to a directional sound field speaker for generating sound propagation in a specific area. Background Art
[0002] This technology is mainly applicable to occasions that require directional control of the sound propagation range, such as conference systems, public broadcasting systems, and vehicle-mounted audio systems. With the continuous development and popularization of conference systems, public broadcasting systems, and vehicle-mounted audio systems, the demand for technology that can directional control the sound propagation range is becoming more urgent.
[0003] In conference systems, directional sound positioning can ensure that participants can clearly hear the speaker's voice and avoid echoes and reverberations caused by disordered diffusion of sound in the space, thereby improving the communication efficiency and quality of the meeting. Public broadcasting systems, such as in large public places such as shopping malls and stations, need to transmit sound in a directionally directed manner to specific areas, which can ensure effective communication of information without causing unnecessary noise interference to surrounding areas. In car audio systems, directional control of the direction of sound propagation can create a higher-quality, immersive audio experience for passengers in the car, while reducing sound pollution to the environment outside the car.
[0004] Traditional directional sound field speakers are mostly designed in omnidirectional or semi-directional modes. Omnidirectional speakers emit sound evenly in all directions, making it difficult to focus the sound in a specific target area, resulting in a waste of sound energy in non-target directions, and easy to cause mutual interference of sound in complex environments. Although the semi-directional design limits the propagation direction of sound to a certain extent, it still cannot meet some application scenarios that require extremely high sound directionality. This limited directivity and large diffusion angle make it difficult to achieve accurate positioning and uniform coverage of sound in spaces such as conference rooms and theaters. In a conference room, the sound may be too loud in some areas and too quiet in other areas; in a theater, the audience in the back row may not be able to clearly hear the sound details on the stage, while the audience in the front row may be impacted by too strong sound, affecting the overall auditory effect.
[0005] From the perspective of the macro-technological development trend and the evolution of actual social needs, people's pursuit of sound quality has reached a new height. Especially in high-noise environments, such as public broadcasting areas near factory workshops and construction sites, or car audio environments next to busy streets, the requirements for sound clarity and privacy are more significant. Therefore, developing a speaker that can propagate sound in a directional manner has become an important research direction. Several common specific solutions in the prior art include: Solution 1: Use multiple small speaker arrays and combine them with electronic phased array technology to achieve the effect of directional sound propagation. The outstanding advantage of this technical solution is that it can flexibly and accurately adjust the propagation direction of the sound waves by accurately controlling the phase and amplitude of the sound waves emitted by each small speaker to meet the diverse needs of sound coverage areas in different scenarios. However, in the actual large-scale application process, due to its complex hardware structure, it is necessary to equip a large number of small speakers and corresponding high-precision electronic control equipment, which greatly increases the overall hardware cost. At the same time, the combination of many devices has also led to a sharp increase in the difficulty of system maintenance. Once a component fails, the workload of troubleshooting and repair is huge. This series of factors seriously limits the widespread promotion and popularization of this solution in the market.
[0006] Solution 2: Use horn-type speakers with strong directivity. This type of speaker can effectively concentrate and directionalize sound energy through its unique horn shape design, thereby significantly improving the efficiency and intensity of sound during long-distance transmission, and has certain advantages in some large outdoor venues or long-distance broadcasting scenarios. However, on the other hand, its large size and relatively fixed structure make it difficult to perform in some application scenarios that require compact space layout, such as small conference rooms, in-car audio systems, etc., and cannot meet the urgent needs of these scenarios for miniaturization and integration of equipment.
[0007] Solution 3: Use digital signal processing technology to achieve directional emission control of sound waves through complex algorithms at the software level. The advantage of this method is its high flexibility and programmability. It can achieve a variety of sound wave directional modes through software adjustments according to different application scenarios and user needs. However, since the directional processing of sound waves requires a large amount of real-time computing resources to support complex algorithm operations, this places extremely high demands on the computing power of the device. In practical applications, the real-time performance of sound wave orientation is often greatly reduced due to the limitations of hardware computing power, resulting in sound delays, freezes and other phenomena, affecting the smoothness and accuracy of sound propagation. Moreover, high-intensity computing tasks also significantly increase the power consumption of the device, which is undoubtedly a fatal disadvantage for some portable devices that rely on batteries or systems with strict requirements on energy consumption.
[0008] Although the above solutions have their own advantages, they also have obvious shortcomings. The cost of multi-speaker arrays is high, the size of horn speakers is large, and digital signal processing technology is limited by computing power and energy consumption. These factors make the existing technologies not widely used in practical applications, especially in situations that require high efficiency, low cost, and low power consumption.
