The invention discloses a pressure speed method sound field separation method, a measured sound field is provided with a measuring surface S; a sound pressure sensor is adopted to measure the sound pressure on the measuring surface S, and a particle velocity sensor or a sound intensity probe is adopted to measure the particle speed on the measuring surface S; both sides of the measuring surface S are provided with the imaginary source surfaces S1 <*> and S2 <*> which are provided with the equivalent sources; the transfer relationship between the equivalent sources and the sound pressure and the particle speed on the measuring surface S is constructed; the separation of sound source radiation sound pressure and the particle speed of both sides on the measuring surface according to the transfer relationship is realized; the sound field separation is realized by measuring the speed relation of sound pressure and particle on each surface; and the equivalent source method is adopted as the sound field separation arithmetic, the calculation stability is good, the calculation precision is high, and the implement is simple. The method can be widely applicable to the near-field acoustic holography measurement in the environments of internal sound field or noisy sound, the sound intensity method sound source identification in the noisy environment, the material reflection coefficient measurement, and the separation of the scattering sound field.
