Abstract
To provide a sound field estimation technique for improving the estimation accuracy of sound field estimation regardless of the state of a scatterer.SOLUTION: A sound field estimation method includes a weighting matrix candidate storage step of storing a diagonal matrix of a weighting matrix obtained by calculating a scattering sound field by a scatterer using an acoustic simulation as a weighting matrix candidate for each state of the scatterer, a weighting matrix selection step of acquiring a state of the scatterer in an estimation target region and selecting a weighting matrix candidate corresponding to the scatterer in a state close to the acquired state from two or more weighting matrix candidates respectively corresponding to the scatterer in two or more different states, and a sound field estimation step of estimating a sound field in the estimation target region using the selected weighting matrix candidate.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
