This computer simulation is the basic research for realize a real-time hardware of the reproduction system in original sound field with two loudspeakers based on the OSS(Ortho Stereophonic System) method which was proposed by Hamada of Japan in 1983. Through the computer simulation, presumed the system function of OSS equalizer using HRTF(Head Related Transfer Function), constructed the model of OSS equalizer and , evaluated the modelling OSS equalizer by evaluation formula. The obtained results are summarized as follows : 1) By the modelling OSS equalize operate as inverse filter of HRTF, an input signal reproduced effectively. 2) Known that the real-time hardware of OSS equalizer can be made by the fast convolution between the impulse response of OSS equalizer and input speech signal. 3) Since the system function of OSS equalizer presumed from HRTF, the study on the measuring of HRTF have to proceed.

The soundscape is a novel attempt to offer comfortable sound environments at the urban public spaces by adding pleasant sounds and removing unagreeable ones. Most important factors to be considered therein are to determine what kind of sounds to offer and how to adjust them to the changing circumstances. But nowadays, the audio system provided in the almost every urban public spaces is just only a PA system with CD player or radio broadcasting music, the provided sound is only intended by the operator. Furthermore, providing the soundscape which fits to the situation and the atmospheric conditions needs enormous effort and time, it is almost impossible with the existing PA systems which installed in the public spaces nowadays. Thus, the new sounds cape reproduction system was developed on the basis of the prior VAFSS(Virtual Acoustic Field Simulation System) systems, which has the artificial intelligence to read out the mood of the field and select the appropriate soundscape to reproduce. In this new system, various environmental sensors with standard voltage, current or resistance output are available simultaneously, and the monitoring with video and sound became available via the TCP/IP communication protocol. The update and control of this system can be very convenient, so the money, time and the effort of maintaining and providing soundscape on the public spaces can be enormously saved. This new soundscape reproducing system was named as Virtual Acoustic Field Simulation System II (V AFSS II).

The soundscape is a novel attempt to offer comfortable sound environments at the urban public spaces by adding pleasant sounds and removing unagreeable ones. Most important factors to be considered therein are to determine what kind of sounds to offer and how to adjust them to the changing circumstances. But, installing, maintaining and adjusting the soundscape system directly in the field will ensue numerous problems as well as high costs. Thus, it is essential to devise a test method to analyse and verify the outcome before the actual installation in the field takes place. This study aims at devising the instrument system that enables to control. with a great ease, numerous variables. reproduce most agreeable sound sources, and can verify the effects on the virtual simulatory settings, which is named as Virtual Acoustic Field Simulation System (VAFSS).

SAFRS is the system designed to reproduce the harmonic sound into the space according to the environmental factors. Here the harmonic sound means the sound which judged by the subjective tests, and the methods were suggested in the former studies. In this research, SAFRS was applied into the Square of D University to evaluate and verify the effectiveness of the system and a few evaluations were carried out as follows; 1) sound perception, frequency, volume and harmony with the space, 2) images of the square and acoustic environment and 3) acoustic environment with existing sounds, fountain sound, produced sound by SAFRS, and both of them respectively. The results can be summarized as follows; 1) According to the evaluation on acoustic environment, no relationships were shown between the cognition of sounds produced by SAFRS and the frequency or volume, but inverse proportion was shown between the volume and special harmony. 2) As the result of image evaluation. the relationship between space and sound image was shown proportional only except the evaluation on main road at night time, it means that the sound proposal with the visual contents matching with the sounds would be more effective than the proposal of sound only. 3) Results of evaluation on acoustic environment showed that the cognition effect at night time was shown higher than that of day time when only the acoustic element was given and the effect was increased when the visual elements matches with the acoustic elements if both of them were given. It confirmed the harmony between visual and acoustic elements was very important.

이 논문은 가상현실 오디오에서 널리 사용되는 Ambisonics에 기반하여 헤드폰을 통해 재생하는 binaural sound의 한계를 분석한 것이다. 가상현실 오디오는 청자의 머리 움직임을 보상하는 binaural sound를 통해 제공된다. Ambisonics는 가상현실 오디오에서 청자를 둘러싼 배경음장을 레코딩하고 재생하는데에 널리 사용되는데, 1차 Ambisonics가 간단하다는 장점 때문에 여전히 가상현실 오디오에서 사용되고 있다. 그러나, 물리적인 관점에서 1차의 상한 주파수는 너무 낮아서 귀 위치의 신호를 완벽히 재현하지 못한다. 따라서 이렇게 재생된 binaural sound는 스펙트럼과 음원 위치 형성에서 근본적인 한계를 갖는다. 이 논문은 이러한 한계를 기준 음장과 재생 음장에서의 귀 위치의 신호 비교를 통해 알아 본다. 하나의 입사파를 기준 음장으로 정의하고, 이 것을 가상 스피커를 이용해서 Ambisonics를 통해 재생한다. 주파수 응답, 양이 레벨차, 양이 위상차가 비교된다. 비교 결과, 상한 주파수 이상에서 재생음장의 음압 레벨은 감소하고 수평면 상에서의 음원 위치는 청자의 정면 방향 근처에서만 잘 형성됨을 알 수 있었다.

A multichannel signal processing algorithm for generating real time virtual sound field was proposed. Evaluation of the system performance was done by an objective function that minimizes the difference between the real and generated signals at each control point. Since impulse responses at the surface of a rigid sphere show characteristics similar to those of real HRTF, a rigid sphere model was adequate to simulate the multichannel sound system. A two-channel system and two four-channel systems were studied with various combinations of source locations and speaker positions. The results show that a two-channel system has its best configuration when the angle spanned by the loudspeakers is less than $60^{\circ}$. In the case of four-channel systems, the overall performance was highly improved with one pair of speakers fixed at an optimal position. Left/right symmetry was a reasonable choice, but the additional front/back symmetry degraded the performance of system.

SAFRS(Spontaneous Acoustic Field Reproduction System) is a system to sense changes of surroundings and produce sounds which can go well with environment elements sensed by the system in to the space. The sounds were judged by individual evaluation and, the classification of the preferred sounds according to the mood of the space was suggested in the former study. Effectiveness of SAFRS with field application was validated by prior studies which dealt with researching acoustic environment, evaluating images of sounds, and rating environment with existence and nonexistence of sound resources such as fountains and the system after applied in D university. In this study, for more effective field application of SAFRS, research for the acoustic environment around sound resources and subjective evaluation of the preference of the sounds from the resources were made and it was considered that the results of the experiments should be primary information to propose proper sound level to be offered by the system. The results of the study are as follows; 1) It was considered that the ambience of the center road was dependent upon produced sounds by the system and water sounds of the fountain and that of walk way was mostly dependent upon produced sounds. 2) The results of the subjective evaluation showed that the distance from sound resources was suggestive; the more distant from produced sounds the less full and clear the sounds, the less distant from the sounds of water the more delight and idyllic ambience, and the less distant from the forest the more idyllic ambient and diversity. 3) The results upwards were telling that an average value of six elements for the evaluation was even at the place set back 10.2m from center road and walk way. And harmony of all sounds of the place should be considered to propose suitable sound level of SAFRS.
