Abstract

This paper describes a method to measure the distortion level of loudspeaker using a LMS(Least Mean Square) adaptive filter. Conventional technique to measure the distortion level uses a band-pass filter with a sharp cut-off frequency characteristics. However. such the band-pass filter has a bed time response characteristics. On the other hand, the proposed method offers us an easy way to measure the specified harmonic distortion level with a small hardware. Moreover, our method is not affected by noise which has no correlation with the test signal, and the measurement can be carried out in a noisy environment. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed by experiment using a loudspeaker in a noisy room.
