TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of intelligent sensor, in particular to a method and system for testing noise reduction performance of intelligent dynamic guiding noise reduction earphone. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of active noise reduction (ANC) technology, intelligent earphones with dynamic guiding and adaptive noise reduction functions have become the mainstream in the market. Such earphones not only need to maintain excellent noise reduction effect in a steady noise environment, but also need to achieve rapid response and continuous effective noise suppression in dynamic scenes where the type and intensity of noise change instantaneously. Therefore, how to comprehensively and accurately evaluate the comprehensive noise reduction performance has become a key challenge in the industry testing field.
[0003] Existing earphone noise reduction performance testing methods are mostly based on a steady noise environment. For example, in an anechoic chamber or a simulated ear canal, an artificial head clamp is used to collect the original environmental noise through a reference microphone and the residual noise after noise reduction through an in-ear microphone, and then the sound pressure level difference or transfer function is calculated to evaluate the noise reduction amount. However, the existing technology has obvious limitations. When testing non-steady excitation such as sweep signal, since the signal frequency changes continuously, directly intercepting the signal interval for analysis will introduce interference of the frequency transient process, resulting in the inability to accurately extract the real noise reduction performance of the earphone at a specific steady frequency. Moreover, there is an inherent system transmission delay and acoustic path difference between the reference microphone and the in-ear microphone, so that the two-way sound signals are not strictly synchronized in time domain. Directly comparing the signals recorded by the synchronous time of the acquisition card ignores the time lag effect, resulting in distorted noise reduction amount and limited evaluation accuracy. In addition, the traditional testing scheme mainly targets static or slowly changing noise scenes, lacks effective evaluation means for earphone noise reduction performance under dynamic noise, and cannot objectively reflect the real performance of intelligent earphones in actual use environment.

In the following description, different "one embodiment" or "another embodiment" do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. In addition, the specific features, structures or characteristics in one or more embodiments can be combined in any suitable form.
[0043] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs.
[0044] The specific scheme of the intelligent dynamic flow guiding noise reduction earphone noise reduction performance test method and system provided by the present application is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 which shows the step flowchart of the intelligent dynamic flow guiding noise reduction earphone noise reduction performance test method provided by one embodiment of the present application, which includes the following steps:
[0046] S1, respectively using static noise and dynamic noise to test the performance of the noise reduction earphone, collecting the environmental noise entering the earphone at each time and the residual noise after noise reduction by the earphone.
[0047] In the intelligent dynamic flow guiding noise reduction earphone, the microphone as the basic acoustic sensor undertakes the function of "auditory nerve ending" and is responsible for collecting the original environmental noise and the residual noise signal in the ear canal. In this embodiment, a reference microphone is placed outside the ear canal of the artificial head near the outside of the intelligent dynamic flow guiding noise reduction earphone, which is used to collect the original environmental noise about to enter the intelligent dynamic flow guiding noise reduction earphone, which is recorded as reference noise. A microphone is placed in the simulated ear canal of the artificial head, which is recorded as noise microphone, which is used to collect the residual noise after noise reduction by the intelligent dynamic flow guiding noise reduction earphone and finally transmitted to the ear. During the test, the host computer of the test system sends simulated noise signals, and the noise is collected by the reference microphone outside the intelligent dynamic flow guiding noise reduction earphone and the noise microphone in the simulated ear canal in turn after propagation, and the corresponding noise signal sequence is obtained.
[0048] In the intelligent dynamic guide noise reduction earphone noise reduction performance test, the embodiment is divided into static noise reduction performance test and dynamic noise reduction performance test. First, for the static noise reduction performance test, the test system controls the speaker to play the noise signal, which is a sine sweep signal from 100 Hz to 1 kHz in the embodiment, the system main control triggers the noise playback at the same time, and the reference microphone and the noise microphone synchronously collect the noise signal to obtain the reference noise signal sequence and the residual noise signal sequence respectively. The noise signal acquisition frequency is 48 kHz, which can be set by the implementer according to the actual situation, and the embodiment does not limit this.
[0049] S2, in the static noise test process, the environment noise is divided into each signal interval based on the frequency of the environment noise; the symmetry degree of the environment noise in each signal interval and the similarity degree of the environment noise with the adjacent signal interval are analyzed to determine the standard degree of each signal interval noise to determine the standard interval corresponding to the frequency of each signal interval.
[0050] Since the noise signal played by the test system control speaker is first passed through the reference microphone and then collected by the noise microphone through the analog ear canal, there is a certain time difference between the reference microphone and the noise microphone when collecting the signal. When the signal strength difference of the signal points at the same time is directly used to represent the static performance of the noise reduction earphone, the static performance evaluation accuracy is low. Therefore, in the embodiment, the reference noise signal sequence and the residual noise signal sequence are analyzed to obtain the matching residual noise point corresponding to each reference noise point, so as to adaptively complete the construction of the static noise reduction performance evaluation index, and the specific process is as follows:
[0051] For the reference noise signal sequence, since the noise signal played by the test system control speaker is a sine sweep signal, the instantaneous waveform of the sine sweep signal is a sine wave, but its frequency changes with time. First, according to the characteristics of the sine wave, the reference noise signal sequence is divided into multiple signal intervals, wherein the maximum points and the minimum points of the reference noise signal sequence are obtained first, and the method for obtaining the maximum points and the minimum points is a known technology, which will not be described here. The interval composed of the reference noise signal points between two adjacent minimum points is called a signal interval, so the reference noise signal sequence can be divided into multiple signal intervals. Since the signal emitted by the test system is a sine sweep signal, the frequency of the signal will change constantly. According to the characteristics of the sine sweep signal, it can be known that part of the noise signal in the obtained signal interval is in the frequency change process, and the static noise reduction performance of the earphone at this frequency cannot be accurately reflected. Therefore, the embodiment further analyzes the signal interval to obtain the standard interval at different frequencies in the signal interval.
[0052] According to the signal characteristics of the sine wave, each signal interval contains a maximum value point, and the maximum value point is usually distributed at the center position of the signal interval. Therefore, in this embodiment, the maximum value point is used as the feature point of the signal interval. When the frequency of the signal interval does not change, the signal interval has periodicity, that is, the maximum value point is the center point and symmetry is presented. Therefore, the standard degree of noise of each signal interval is constructed by the symmetry condition of the signal interval and the approximate condition of the signal interval and the adjacent signal interval. Specifically, the following is performed.
[0053] First, the distance difference between the maximum value point and the left and right boundary points of the signal interval is calculated, the proportion of the distance difference in the total length of the signal interval is calculated, and the difference between the natural number 1 and the proportion is used as the symmetry degree of each signal interval.
[0054] It should be noted that the difference represents the difference between two variables, which can be calculated by using the absolute value of the difference, the square of the difference, the ratio, etc. This embodiment does not limit this.
[0055] In this embodiment, the symmetry degree of each signal interval is expressed as: In the formula, is the distance between the maximum value point of each signal interval and the left boundary of the signal interval to which the maximum value point belongs, is the distance between the maximum value point of each signal interval and the right boundary of the signal interval to which the maximum value point belongs, represents the distance difference between the maximum value point and the left and right boundary points of the signal interval, is the total length of each signal interval. The greater the distance difference, the smaller the symmetry degree of the signal interval.
[0056] Secondly, the frequency difference between each signal interval and its adjacent signal interval is determined, and the correlation coefficient of the environmental noise of each signal interval and its adjacent signal interval is determined. The noise similarity between each signal interval and its adjacent signal interval is determined in combination with the frequency difference and the correlation coefficient. The noise similarity is positively correlated with the correlation coefficient and negatively correlated with the frequency difference.
[0057] In this embodiment, the noise similarity between each signal interval and its adjacent signal interval is expressed as: In the formula, is the Pearson correlation coefficient of the reference noise of each signal interval and its adjacent signal interval. The implementer can select other existing correlation coefficient calculation methods, and this embodiment does not limit this, is the reference noise signal frequency of each signal interval, is the reference noise signal frequency of the adjacent signal interval of each signal interval, The frequency difference between each signal interval and its adjacent signal intervals is considered. The smaller the frequency difference, the more likely it is to represent noise information at the same frequency. To ensure that the value is greater than 0 and to avoid a denominator of 0, this embodiment... The implementer can set this according to the actual situation; this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on it. `norm()` is the normalization function. It should be noted that if the Pearson correlation coefficient between each signal interval and the reference noise of its adjacent signal intervals is negative, then during the noise similarity calculation process... The value is recorded as 0.
[0058] The standard degree of noise for each signal interval is obtained by fusing the symmetry of each signal interval and the noise similarity between each signal interval and all its adjacent signal intervals. Here, fusion means combining multiple variables, which can be calculated by methods such as addition, multiplication, a mixture of addition and multiplication, or averaging.
[0059] In this embodiment, the mean noise similarity between each signal interval and all its adjacent signal intervals is calculated. In this embodiment, adjacent signal intervals refer to the two preceding signal intervals; the implementer can set the number of adjacent signal intervals themselves. The product of the mean and the symmetry of each signal interval is used as the standard degree of each signal interval. The larger the standard degree, the more likely the signal interval is to be a noise signal collected during frequency stabilization, and the more likely it is to be a standard interval. The smaller the standard degree, the more likely the signal within the signal interval is to be in a state of frequency variation, and the less it can characterize the change in noise information at that frequency.
[0060] The standard degree of each signal interval in the reference noise signal sequence can be obtained by following the above steps. For any given signal interval, each neighboring signal interval is obtained, and the signal interval with the largest standard degree among all neighboring signal intervals is taken as the standard interval at the corresponding frequency of the given signal interval. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, each neighboring signal interval refers to each signal interval whose signal frequency differs from that of the given signal interval by less than 0.1 Hz. The implementer can set the selection of each neighboring signal interval according to the actual situation.
[0061] S3. By obtaining the correspondence between environmental noise and residual noise at each time point within the standard interval, the matching residual noise of the maximum point noise within the standard interval is determined. The time interval between the maximum point of the standard interval and its matching residual noise is used to construct time consistency. Combined with the correspondence, the matching residual noise of the environmental noise at each time point within the standard interval is obtained.
[0062] According to the above steps, the standard interval at different frequencies in the reference noise signal sequence can be obtained, and then the residual noise signal points corresponding to the signal points in the standard interval at different frequencies can be further obtained. In this embodiment, the environmental noise at the a time, i.e., the reference noise, is taken as an example to obtain the residual noise at the b time after the a time, and the environmental noises at the M adjacent times of the a time are obtained, which are arranged in descending order of values to obtain a first noise sequence. Similarly, the residual noises at the M adjacent times of the b time are obtained, which are also arranged in descending order of values to obtain a second noise sequence. The arrangement order of the first noise sequence and the second noise sequence can also be in ascending order, as long as the arrangement manners of the first noise sequence and the second noise sequence are the same. In this embodiment, M=10, which can be set by the implementer according to the actual situation, and this embodiment does not limit this.
[0063] The number of equal elements at the same position in the first noise sequence and the second noise sequence is counted, the absolute value of the difference between the environmental noise at the a time and the residual noise at the b time is calculated, and is recorded as a first difference. The ratio of the first difference to the environmental noise at the a time is taken as the noise attenuation amplitude between the a time and the b time. .
[0064] Based on the number and the noise attenuation amplitude, the correspondence H between the environmental noise at the a time and the residual noise at the b time is calculated, and the expression is:
[0065] where h is the number, M is the preset number, the equal elements at the same position in the first noise sequence and the second noise sequence are recorded as each adjacent point pair, is the noise attenuation amplitude between the mth adjacent point pair at the a time and the b time, is a preset value greater than 0, which avoids the denominator being 0, and in this embodiment, which can be set by the implementer according to the actual situation. Wherein, the b time is after the a time.
[0066] For noise signals of the same frequency component, the active noise control system in the earphone will produce a relatively consistent attenuation amount, and the attenuation amplitude is roughly the same, that is, The smaller the noise attenuation amplitude is, the greater the correspondence is.
[0067] The greater the correspondence is, the more likely the environmental noise at the a time and the residual noise at the b time are the same sound signal point. The smaller the correspondence is, the less likely the environmental noise at the a time and the residual noise at the b time are the same sound signal point.
[0068] Further, the residual noise in a preset time interval after the time corresponding to the maximum point noise in each standard interval is obtained, the correspondence between the time corresponding to the maximum point noise and the residual noise at each time is calculated, and the residual noise corresponding to the maximum value of the correspondence is taken as the matching residual noise of the maximum point noise. The preset time interval in this embodiment is 2 ms, and the implementer can set it according to the actual situation, which is not limited in this embodiment.
[0069] The time interval between each maximum point and its matching residual noise in all standard intervals is counted, the occurrence frequency of each time interval is counted, and the time consistency expression is constructed. The expression is , wherein the maximum value of the occurrence frequency, A represents the number of standard intervals, the time interval between the maximum point of the i th standard interval and its matching residual noise, the time interval corresponding to the maximum value of the occurrence frequency, and is recorded as the second difference. The smaller the second difference is, the closer the time interval between each maximum point and its matching residual noise in all standard intervals is, and the greater the time consistency is. That is, the time interval corresponding to the maximum point of the standard interval has greater reference significance for the subsequent. It should be noted that, in order to avoid meaningless phenomenon of denominator being 0 in the calculation process, a preset minimum value can be added to the denominator in the calculation process. In this embodiment, the value is 0.01, and the implementer can set it.
[0070] Further, the search range of each reference noise signal point in the standard interval is obtained according to the time consistency, the correspondence between the residual noise in the search range and the reference noise is obtained, and the matching residual noise of the environmental noise at each time is obtained. For the environmental noise at the a th time in any standard interval, the time interval between the maximum point in the any standard interval and its matching residual noise is obtained , and the multiplication result of is recorded as the first product. The time length corresponding to the first product is expanded before and after the a th time centering on the a th time, thereby obtaining the time interval of the a th time as the search range of the a th time.
[0071] The correspondence between the environmental noise at the a th time and the residual noise at all times in the time interval of the a th time is calculated, and the residual noise corresponding to the maximum value of the correspondence is taken as the matching residual noise of the environmental noise at the a th time. Thus, the matching residual noise of the environmental noise at each time in each standard interval can be obtained.
[0072] S4, analyze the difference between the ambient noise at each time in the standard interval and the matching residual noise, fuse the correspondence, and obtain the static noise reduction performance factor of the earphone.
[0073] According to the above steps, the residual noise signal point corresponding to the reference noise signal point in the standard interval at each frequency can be obtained, that is, the matching residual noise. Then, the static noise reduction performance factor can be obtained. Specifically, the absolute value of the difference between the ambient noise at each time in each standard interval and the matching residual noise is calculated, denoted as a third difference. The product of the third difference and the correspondence between the ambient noise at each time and the matching residual noise is determined, denoted as a second product. The sum of all second products at all times in all standard intervals is taken as the static noise reduction performance factor of the earphone.
[0074] The greater the value of the second product, the better the static noise reduction performance of the earphone. The greater the static noise reduction performance factor of the earphone, the better the noise reduction performance of the intelligent dynamic flow noise reduction earphone in a static environment.
[0075] S5, during the dynamic noise test process, corresponding to the switching process of the dynamic noise, determine the dynamic noise reduction performance factor of the earphone, fuse the static noise reduction performance factor, and evaluate the noise reduction performance of the earphone.
[0076] In order to accurately reflect the noise reduction performance of the intelligent dynamic flow noise reduction earphone, the embodiment further constructs the dynamic noise reduction performance factor of the earphone by the change of the noise signal in the noise reduction process of the intelligent dynamic flow noise reduction earphone in a dynamic noise environment. The specific process is as follows:
[0077] During the dynamic noise test process of the earphone, the test system first controls the noise source to switch different types of noise at a preset time point. For example, in the first period of time: play the steady-state airplane engine noise. In the second period of time: switch to the subway track impact sound instantly. In the third period of time: add sudden human voice conversation. In this process, the reference microphone and the noise microphone continuously collect time-domain audio signals to obtain the corresponding reference noise signal sequence and residual noise signal sequence. The type and switching time point of the dynamic noise can be set by the implementer according to the actual situation, and the embodiment does not limit this.
[0078] Since the dynamic noise changes complexly, there is time error between the time domain noise signals collected by the reference microphone and the noise microphone, which cannot be directly evaluated, therefore, in the embodiment, the time interval between the reference noise signal and the matching residual noise at each time point obtained in the static noise test process is acquired, the time interval with the largest occurrence frequency is recorded as the characteristic interval, and the residual noise signal point at the characteristic interval length after each reference noise signal point in the dynamic noise is taken as the matching residual noise of the reference noise signal.
[0079] According to the above, the switching process and the characteristic interval are acquired, then the dynamic noise reduction performance factor of the earphone can be constructed according to the change of the noise signal value in the switching process , and the specific expression is: , wherein R represents the number of switching processes of the dynamic noise, the absolute value of the difference between the signal value of each reference noise signal point and the signal value of the matching residual noise signal point in each switching process is calculated, and the corresponding degree between the two is multiplied to obtain the product, which is recorded as the dynamic noise matching degree, , wherein the dynamic noise matching degree of all reference noise signal points and the matching residual noise signal points in the rth switching process is recorded as the dynamic noise matching degree of all reference noise signal points and the matching residual noise signal points in the rth switching process, The greater the value is, the greater the dynamic noise reduction performance factor is. , wherein the switching length of the rth switching process is recorded as the switching length of the rth switching process, the shorter the switching length is, the faster the dynamic noise reduction performance factor is, and the better the performance is. The switching length of the rth switching process is recorded as the first ratio.
[0080] At this point, the static noise reduction performance factor and the dynamic noise reduction performance factor of the intelligent dynamic noise reduction earphone are obtained, and the product of the two is taken as the evaluation index of the noise reduction performance of the dynamic noise reduction earphone, the greater the value of the evaluation index is, the better the noise reduction performance of the earphone is, and the smaller the value of the evaluation index is, the worse the noise reduction performance of the earphone is.
[0081] In the embodiment, the average of the evaluation indexes of the N noise reduction performance qualified intelligent dynamic guiding noise reduction earphones is taken as the discrimination threshold. In the noise reduction performance test process, if the evaluation index of the noise reduction performance of the intelligent dynamic guiding noise reduction earphone is greater than or equal to the discrimination threshold, it is determined that the noise reduction performance of the intelligent dynamic guiding noise reduction earphone is qualified, otherwise, the noise reduction performance is unqualified. The implementer can evaluate the noise reduction performance of the dynamic guiding noise reduction earphone in other feasible ways based on the evaluation index of the noise reduction performance of the dynamic guiding noise reduction earphone.
