A Comparative Study of Sound Source Localization Algorithms for Portable Devices

휴대용 단말기에서 음원 위치 추적 기술 비교 연구

The performance of a sound source localization system degrades severely in reverberant and noisy environments. In addition, restriction on the distance between microphones, which is required by portable devices, also lower the system performance. This paper compares the sound source localization algorithms based on time delay of arrival, which are robust to reverberation and noises considering microphone sensor distance. As well, post filter which outputs maximum count time delay is adopted to increase the accuracy.
