  • Sound field synthesis based on superposition of multipoles comprising focused monopole sources

    Acoustical Science and Technology, ACOUSTICAL SOCIETY OF JAPAN, 41, 2, 489-500, 2020, Peer-reviwed,

    We propose a method to create a directional sound source in front of a linear loudspeaker array. The method creates clusters of focused sources to form multipoles by using a linear loudspeaker array and superposes the multipoles to synthesize a directivity pattern. We also derive an efficient multipole structure in which adjacent lower order multipoles are overlapped. The structure reduces the number of focused sources, thereby reducing the algorithmic complexity needed to create them. To further reduce complexity, we also derive a time domain implementation of the proposed method. To mitigate degradation in the reproduced directivity due to superposition of the inaccurate sound fields of focused sources, a fractional delay interpolation is applied. Computer simulation results indicate that the proposed method based on superposition of up to the third order multipoles creates a directional sound source at significantly lower complexity than a conventional method.

  • DIRECTIVITY SYNTHESIS WITH MULTIPOLES COMPRISING A CLUSTER OF FOCUSED SOURCES USING A LINEAR LOUDSPEAKER ARRAY
    Kimitaka Tsutsumi; Yoichi Haneda; Ken'ichi Noguchi; Hideaki Takada
    2018 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH AND SIGNAL PROCESSING (ICASSP), IEEE, 2018, 496-500, 2018, Peer-reviwed, A method to create multipoles comprising a cluster of focused sources by using a linear loudspeaker array has recently been investigated. Directivities in a listening area were confirmed with examples of primitive multipoles such as dipoles and quadrupoles. This paper describes a method to create a sound source having more complex directivity by using a superposition of multipoles comprising a collection of focused sources. An analytical method is also described with which coefficients can be obtained for each multipole by circular harmonic expansion of a sound field created by a directional sound source and Taylor expansion of the corresponding sound field. Simulation results show that a superposition of multipoles based on analytical conversion introduces desired directivities to the sound sources created in the listening area by a linear loudspeaker array.

  • Sidelobe suppression by desired directivity pattern optimization for a small circular loudspeaker array
    Koya Sato; Yoichi Haneda
    Acoustical Science and Technology, Acoustical Society of Japan, 39, 3, 243-251, 2018, Peer-reviwed, Directivity control using a loudspeaker array is widely studied for various applications. Suppressing sidelobe levels is important for applications such as personal audio systems. In this paper, we propose a filter design method using a window function shape as the desired directivity pattern to reduce the sidelobe levels. The proposed method consists of three steps. The first step defines a cost function with a criterion for the directivity pattern. Next, filter coefficients for each loudspeaker are calculated and stored while changing the window function shape of the desired directivity pattern. Finally, we determine the optimum filter coefficients having the best performance of the cost function by using a full-search algorithm at each frequency. We conducted directivity experiments with a real six-element circular loudspeaker array having a radius of 0.055 m and evaluated its directivity to confirm the performance of the proposed method. The results, which were compared with those obtained from a conventional method, showed that the maximum sidelobe level improved by about 2 dB, although the beam was wide. We verified that using the window function shape as the desired directivity pattern is more effective than using the conventional method for sidelobe suppression.

  • A method to reproduce a directional sound source by using a circular array of focused sources in front of a linear loudspeaker array
    Kimitaka Tsutsumi; Yoichi Haneda; Kenichi Noguchi; Hideaki Takada
    144th Audio Engineering Society Convention 2018, 144, 9978, 2018, Peer-reviwed, © 2018 Audio Engineering Society. All Rights Reserved. We propose a method to create a directional sound source in front of a linear loudspeaker array. The method creates a virtual circular loudspeaker array comprising multiple focused sources to reproduce directivity patterns. In the proposed method, the driving functions for the secondary sources are defined as a cascade combination of two driving functions: The first one for directivity control derived by an analytical conversion of circular harmonic modes, and the second one for creating focused sources. The proposed driving functions can deal with directivity rotation by changing the position of focused sources, thereby avoiding recalculations of driving functions. Using computer simulation, we obtained accuracy and algorithmic complexity comparable or better than those of a conventional method.

  • 3D directivity control of a finite cylindrical loudspeaker array with cylindrical harmonics
    Koya Sato; Yoichi Haneda
    2017 IEEE 6th Global Conference on Consumer Electronics, GCCE 2017, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017-, 2017, 1-2, 19 Dec. 2017, Peer-reviwed, We propose a filter design method based on three-dimensional (3D) bases for a finite cylindrical loudspeaker array. In this method, we first derive the relationship between the 3D bases of directivity patterns and finite cylindrical harmonics. Directivity simulations were conducted using a prototypical 24-element cylindrical array with a radius of 0.07 m and height of 0.28 m and compared with the results of an 8-element circular array. These results showed that the cylindrical array can suppress sound pressure level of approximately 10 dB in the z-axis direction although the x-y plane was similar in comparison to the circular array. Moreover, we confirmed that the cylindrical array can control directivity in a diagonal direction.

  • L1-regularised MV beamformer in the spherical harmonic domain for spherical microphone array recording
    Yuhei Yamamoto; Yoichi Haneda
    2017 IEEE 6th Global Conference on Consumer Electronics, GCCE 2017, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017-, 2017, 1-2, 19 Dec. 2017, Peer-reviwed, Teleconference systems are widely used in business and education. They are required to enhance only the target speech while suppressing diffuse or interference noise. The minimum variance beamformer is a strong method to enhance the target speech
    However, it is less robust at low frequencies. We propose a robust beamformer based on the minimum variance method in the spherical harmonic domain. Less robustness is caused by the use of high-order spherical harmonic coefficients at low frequencies. To avoid the use of high-order coefficients in the filter calculation, we apply L1-regularization to the minimum variance method. Our analysis demonstrates the tradeoff between the robustness and spatial resolution and how the L1-regularization improves the robustness at low frequencies.

  • DNN-BASED SOURCE ENHANCEMENT SELF-OPTIMIZED BY REINFORCEMENT LEARNING USING SOUND QUALITY MEASUREMENTS
    Yuma Koizumi; Kenta Niwa; Yusuke Hioka; Kazunori Kobayashi; Yoichi Haneda
    2017 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH AND SIGNAL PROCESSING (ICASSP), IEEE, 2017, 81-85, 2017, We investigated whether a deep neural network (DNN)-based source enhancement function can be self-optimized by reinforcement learning (RL). The use of a DNN is a powerful approach to describing the relationship between two sets of variables and can be useful for source enhancement function design. By training the DNN using a huge amount of training data, sound quality of output signals are improved. However, collecting a huge amount of training data is often difficult in practice. To use limited training data efficiently, we focus on the "self-optimization" of DNN-based source enhancement function in which RL is commonly utilized in the development of game playing computers. As a reward for RL, quantitative metrics that reflect a human's perceptual score (perceptual score), e.g., perceptual evaluation methods for audio source separation (PEASS), are utilized. To investigate whether the sound quality is improved by RL-based source enhancement, subjective tests were conducted. It was confirmed that the output sound quality of the RL-based source enhancement function improved as the number of iterations was increased and finally outperformed the conventional method.

  • Acoustic Echo and Noise Canceller for Personal Hands-Free Video IP Phone
    Masahiro Fukui; Suehiro Shimauchi; Yusuke Hioka; Akira Nakagawa; Yoichi Haneda
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON CONSUMER ELECTRONICS, IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 62, 4, 454-462, Nov. 2016, Peer-reviwed, This paper presents implementation and evaluation of a proposed acoustic echo and noise canceller (AENC) for videotelephony-enabled personal hands-free internet protocol (IP) phones. This canceller has the following features: noise-robust performance, low processing delay, and low computational complexity. The AENC employs an adaptive digital filter (ADF) and noise reduction (NR) methods that can effectively eliminate undesired acoustic echo and background noise included in a microphone signal even in a noisy environment. The ADF method uses the step-size control approach according to the level of disturbance such as background noise; it can minimize the effect of disturbance in a noisy environment. The NR method estimates the noise level under an assumption that the noise amplitude spectrum is constant in a short period, which cannot be applied to the amplitude spectrum of speech. In addition, this paper presents the method for decreasing the computational complexity of the ADF process without increasing the processing delay to make the processing suitable for real-time implementation. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed AENC suppresses echo and noise sufficiently in a noisy environment; thus, resulting in natural-sounding speech(1).

  • Interactive Directivity Control Using Dodecahedron Loudspeaker Array
    K. Bando; Y. Haneda
    Journal of Signal Processing, Journal of Signal Processing, 20, 4, 209-212, 01 Jul. 2016, Peer-reviwed, In this paper, we investigate loudspeaker array directivity control and its application to sound localization when steering the beam direction of the loudspeaker array. The filter of a spherical loudspeaker array is designed based on the minimum variance (MV) method [1] in the spherical harmonics (SH) domain [2]. The beam pattern generated by the filter achieves a high directivity in a certain direction. Further, the beam direction can be rotated while maintaining the shape of the beam pattern. We implemented a prototype system that allows the listener to steer the beam direction using a gyro sensor in real time. The listening test result suggested that the location of the sound image varies based on the sound reflected from the wall. We evaluated the sound localization mechanism while rotating the beam direction based on the observed signal measured with a dummy head. The result showed that the sound of the beam reflected from a wall influences horizontal plane localization and sound image distance.

    The proceddings of the 2016 RISP International Workshop on Nonlinear Circuits, Communications and Signal Processing, Research Institute of Signal Processing, Japan, 20, 4, 9-12, 07 Mar. 2016, Peer-reviwed, In this paper, we investigate loudspeaker array directivity control and its application to sound localization when steering the beam direction of the loudspeaker array. The filter of a spherical loudspeaker array is designed based on the minimum variance (MV) method [1] in the spherical harmonics (SH) domain [2]. The beam pattern generated by the filter achieves a high directivity in a certain direction. Further, the beam direction can be rotated while maintaining the shape of the beam pattern. We implemented a prototype system that allows the listener to steer the beam direction using a gyro sensor in real time. The listening test result suggested that the location of the sound image varies based on the sound reflected from the wall. We evaluated the sound localization mechanism while rotating the beam direction based on the observed signal measured with a dummy head.

  • SPHERICAL MICROPHONE ARRAY POST-FILTERING FOR REVERBERATION SUPPRESSION USING ISOTROPIC BEAMFORMINGS
    Yuhei Yamamoto; Yoichi Haneda
    2016 IEEE INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON ACOUSTIC SIGNAL ENHANCEMENT (IWAENC), IEEE, PS-I, 17, 2016, Peer-reviwed, Dereverberation or reverberation suppression techniques are important for many applications. Beamforming is an effective technique for speech enhancement; however, it is impossible to suppress the reverberation arriving from the target direction for beamforming. The non-linear post-filtering methods have been proposed for reverberation suppression based on Wiener filtering. Post-filtering can suppress the reverberation from the output of beamforming when the power spectral density (PSD) of the desired reverberation is estimated. In this paper, we assume that reverberation arrives isotropically. Under this assumption, using isotropic beamforming on the spherical harmonic (SH) domain, the PSD of reverberation can be estimated. Based on our experiments, the proposed method is an effective tool for suppressing reverberation; furthermore, it can be used to reduce background noise.

  • DIRECTION-OF-ARRIVAL ESTIMATION BASED ON JOINT DIAGONALIZATION OF MATRICES IN DIFFERENT DIRECT-TO-REVERBERATION RATIOS
    Ryusuke Tanaka; Yoichi Haneda
    2016 IEEE INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON ACOUSTIC SIGNAL ENHANCEMENT (IWAENC), IEEE, PS-I, 19, 2016, Peer-reviwed, Direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation is very important in many applications. The MUltiple SIgnal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm is one of the well-known methods of DOA estimation. However, in a real environment with reverberation, MUSIC's estimation accuracy is degraded. In this paper, we propose an improved MUSIC algorithm by using joint diagonalization of the covariance matrices of two different direct-to-reverberation ratio (DRR) periods corresponding to higher and lower DRR periods in a short time. In addition, we also introduce a method for detecting different DRR periods by using peak-hold processing for our proposed method. Computer simulations verified that the proposed method improves the accuracy of the azimuth in DOA estimation compared with the conventional method for both simulated and actual impulse responses.

    IEEE JOURNAL OF SELECTED TOPICS IN SIGNAL PROCESSING, IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 9, 5, 881-894, Aug. 2015, Peer-reviwed, A sound field recording and reproduction method that exploits prior information on the locations of sound sources to be reproduced is proposed. Current methods do not take such prior information into consideration in the transformation from the signals received by microphones into the driving signals of loudspeakers. The proposed method for planar and linear arrays of microphones and loudspeakers optimizes spatial basis functions and their coefficients, which represent the driving signals of loudspeakers, on the basis of the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation approach, leading to higher reproduction accuracy above the spatial Nyquist frequency when there are fewer microphones than loudspeakers, i.e., super-resolution in sound field recording and reproduction. Numerical simulations show that the reproduction accuracy at frequencies above the spatial Nyquist frequency was maintained using the proposed method even when there was a mismatch between actual and prior locations of the sound sources to be reproduced.

    2015 IEEE WORKSHOP ON APPLICATIONS OF SIGNAL PROCESSING TO AUDIO AND ACOUSTICS (WASPAA), IEEE, 9, 5, 881-894, 2015, Peer-reviwed, A sound field recording and reproduction method for spherical arrays that takes into account prior information on the locations of sound sources to be reproduced, i.e., primary sources, is proposed. Current methods using spherical arrays of microphones and loudspeakers, such as higher order ambisonics (HOA), are based on sound field analysis and synthesis in a spherical harmonic domain. However, the size of the reproduced region is limited by the maximum available order of the spherical harmonics, which is usually determined by the microphone array design. Our proposed method exploits approximate positions of primary sources, which may be estimated from the signals received by microphones or other sensor data, to obtain the driving signals of the loudspeakers. Spatial basis functions and their coefficients representing the driving signals are optimized on the basis of maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation using the prior source locations. Numerical simulation results indicated that the reproduced region can be enlarged to greater than that when using HOA by using the proposed method.

  • Wave Field Reconstruction Filtering in Cylindrical Harmonic Domain for With-Height Recording and Reproduction

    IEEE-ACM TRANSACTIONS ON AUDIO SPEECH AND LANGUAGE PROCESSING, IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 22, 10, 1546-1557, Oct. 2014, Peer-reviwed, For sound field reproduction that includes height (with-height reproduction), it is more efficient to record and reproduce the sound field with lower resolution in elevation than in azimuth due to the spatial abilities of human auditory perception. We propose a sound field reproduction method using horizontally arranged cylindrical arrays of microphones and loudspeakers, which is based on the wave field reconstruction (WFR) filter. With the use of cylindrical array configurations, it is possible to reproduce sound waves arriving from upper and lower directions with a smaller number of array elements at angular positions. The WFR filter is analytically derived in the cylindrical harmonic domain and allows direct transformation from the received signals of the microphones into the driving signals of the loudspeakers. A model in which microphones are mounted on a rigid cylindrical baffle is introduced to stabilize the WFR filter. Numerical simulation results indicated that the reproduction accuracy in the neighboring region along the central axis of the cylindrical array was better preserved when using the proposed method than when the method with planar arrays was used.

    IEICE TRANSACTIONS ON FUNDAMENTALS OF ELECTRONICS COMMUNICATIONS AND COMPUTER SCIENCES, IEICE-INST ELECTRONICS INFORMATION COMMUNICATIONS ENG, E97A, 9, 1840-1848, Sep. 2014, Peer-reviwed, A new real-time sound field transmission system is presented. To construct this system, a large listening area needs to be reproduced at not less than a constant height. Additionally, the driving signals of the loudspeakers should be obtained only from received signals of microphones. Wave field reconstruction (WFR) filtering for linear arrays of microphones and loudspeakers is considered to be suitable for this kind of system. An experimental system was developed to show the feasibility of real-time sound field transmission using the WFR filter. Experiments to measure the reproduced sound field and a subjective listening test of sound localization were conducted to evaluate the proposed system. Although the reproduced sound field included several artifacts such as spatial aliasing and faster amplitude decay, the experimental results indicated that the proposed system was able to provide sound localization accuracy for virtual sound sources comparable to that for real sound sources in a large listening area.

  • Double-talk Robust Acoustic Echo Cancellation for CD-quality Hands-free Videoconferencing System

    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON CONSUMER ELECTRONICS, IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 60, 3, 468-475, Aug. 2014, Peer-reviwed, A novel monaural acoustic echo cancellation method developed for a 20-kHz wideband hands-free video-or teleconferencing system is presented. The method can effectively reduce undesired acoustic echo included in a signal arriving at a microphone from a loudspeaker and can emphasize the target talker's voice when near-end and far-end talkers speak simultaneously (i.e. double-talk). The method estimates a power frequency response of an acoustic echo path between a loudspeaker and microphone (acoustic coupling level) whether or not double-talk has occurred, then calculates a post-filter that effectively reduces the undesired echo. In the echo cancellation processing, the calculation complexity is reduced to make the processing suitable for real-time implementation by using a low-complexity subband approach that employs a new subband filtering algorithm. Experiments were conducted to examine the performance of the proposed method. The results indicated that the proposed method delivered natural-sounding near-end speech even during double-talk periods while sufficiently suppressing the undesired echo(1).

  • Adaptive Spectral Masking of AVQ Coding and Sparseness Detection for ITU-T G.711.1 Annex D and G.722 Annex B Standards

    IEICE TRANSACTIONS ON INFORMATION AND SYSTEMS, IEICE-INST ELECTRONICS INFORMATION COMMUNICATIONS ENG, E97D, 5, 1264-1272, May 2014, Peer-reviwed, We proposes a new adaptive spectral masking method of algebraic vector quantization (AVQ) for non-sparse signals in the modified discreet cosine transform (MDCT) domain. This paper also proposes switching the adaptive spectral masking on and off depending on whether or not the target signal is non-sparse. The switching decision is based on the results of MDCT-domain sparseness analysis. When the target signal is categorized as non-sparse, the masking level of the target MDCT coefficients is adaptively controlled using spectral envelope information. The performance of the proposed method, as a part of ITU-T G.711.1 Annex D, is evaluated in comparison with conventional AVQ. Subjective listening test results showed that the proposed method improves sound quality by more than 0.1 points on a five-point scale on average for speech, music, and mixed content, which indicates significant improvement.

  • Sound field simulation for circular array based on spatial circular convolution
    Yoichi Haneda; Ken'Ichi Furuya; Shoichi Koyama; Kenta Niwa; Kazunori Kobayashi
    Acoustical Science and Technology, 日本音響学会, 35, 2, 99-107, 2014, Peer-reviwed, We propose a sound field simulation method for a circular array. In a linear array, when the distance between the loudspeaker units is equal to the interval between the observation points on the lines paralleled to the array, the sound pressures on the observation line can be calculated by the spatial convolution of the set of transfer functions and loudspeakers' driving signals. To apply this idea to a circular array, we developed a simulation method with equiangular observation points on the circle. The spatial circular convolution without zero padding, which is necessary in a linear array, can be used with this method. By conducting convolution based on the fast Fourier transform (FFT), the computational complexity is greatly reduced. Moreover, assuming that non-active loudspeakers are included in the loudspeaker array, the proposed method can be applied to an unequal interval array. For example, when the number of observation points is set to 128 and the number of loudspeakers is set to 32, circular convolution with FFT reduces the computational complexity to 75% compared to the conventional method. In addition, we argue that this method can be applied to a room in which the first reflected sounds are reflected from the floor. The proposed method is useful for simulating the sound field for a circular array when the suitable spatial samplings of the circumferential and radial directions are set. © 2014 The Acoustical Society of Japan.

  • Wiener solution considering cross-spectral term between echo and near-end speech for acoustic echo reduction

    Acoustical Science and Technology, Acoustical Society of Japan, 35, 3, 150-158, 2014, Peer-reviwed, This paper introduces a frequency-domain acoustic echo reduction process based on a new Wiener-filtering method taking into account the cross-spectral term between the acoustic echo and the near-end speech. The conventional echo reduction method based on Wiener filtering estimates the gain based on the assumption that the cross-spectral term of the echo and the near-end speech is zero because the acoustic echo and the near-end speech are statistically uncorrelated. However, this assumption does not always hold true in practice because the gain is estimated in a very short period where the amount of statistical data, which is used to calculate the ensemble averages of the observed signals, is insufficient. As a result, the conventional method occasionally causes the perceptual degradation of sound quality during a double-talk situation
    therefore, the performance is still not sufficient. Our goal was to accurately calculate the echo-reduction gain to decrease the speech distortions produced by the echo-reduction process. The proposed method solves a least mean square error of the Wiener-filtering method by taking into account the cross-spectral term between the echo and the near-end speech to obtain a better echo-reduction gain. The performance of this method was demonstrated by objective and subjective results in which speech distortions were decreased. ©2014 The Acoustical Society of Japan.

  • CLOSE-TALKING SPHERICAL MICROPHONE ARRAY USING SOUND PRESSURE INTERPOLATION BASED ON SPHERICAL HARMONIC EXPANSION
    Yoichi Haneda; Ken'ichi Furuya; Shoichi Koyama; Kenta Niwa
    2014 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH AND SIGNAL PROCESSING (ICASSP), IEEE, 604-608, 2014, Peer-reviwed, We propose a novel close-talking spherical microphone array that uses the residual signal between the observed sound pressure and the interpolated sound pressure at the center of the spherical array. The interpolated sound is obtained from the sound pressures observed on the surface of a sphere on the basis of the spherical harmonic expansion, assuming that the sound originates from the outside of the array. If the sound source is close to the spherical array, the array cannot express the spherical wave correctly because the number of microphones is limited. As a result, the residual signal increases. This method is a modified form of the conventional method, which interpolates the sound pressure by using the Kirchhoff integral equation. In contrast with the conventional method, we interpolate the sound at the center of the sphere by using only the average value of the sound pressures on the spherical array surface. The computer simulations were conducted using a 12-element spherical microphone array with radius of 5 cm. These results showed that the performances of both methods were almost equivalent, although the proposed method used half the number of microphones as the conventional method.

    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON AUDIO SPEECH AND LANGUAGE PROCESSING, IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 21, 4, 685-696, Apr. 2013, Peer-reviwed, For transmission of a physical sound field in a large area, it is necessary to transform received signals of a microphone array into driving signals of a loudspeaker array to reproduce the sound field. We propose a method for transforming these signals by using planar or linear arrays of microphones and loudspeakers. A continuous transform equation is analytically derived based on the physical equation of wave propagation in the spatio-temporal frequency domain. By introducing spatial sampling, the uniquely determined transform filter, called a wave field reconstruction filter (WFR filter), is derived. Numerical simulations show that the WFR filter can achieve the same performance as that obtained using the conventional least squares (LS) method. However, since the proposed WFR filter is represented as a spatial convolution, it has many advantages in filter design, filter size, computational cost, and filter stability over the transform filter designed by the LS method.

  • IMPROVEMENT USING CIRCULAR HARMONICS BEAMFORMING ON REVERBERATION PROBLEM OF WAVE FIELD RECONSTRUCTION FILTERING

    2013 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH AND SIGNAL PROCESSING (ICASSP), IEEE, 276-280, 2013, Peer-reviwed, In real-time sound field transmission systems, the driving signals of a loudspeaker array should be obtained using only the received signals of a microphone array. For efficient transformation of signals of planar or linear arrays, we previously proposed a method of applying a transform filter in the spatio-temporal frequency domain; this filter is defined as the wave field reconstruction (WFR) filter. In linear array configurations, the major artifact of this method is an increase in reverberation time and a decrease in the direct-to-reverberant energy ratio (DRR) because reflections from above and below the microphone array can not be distinguished. We propose a method combining circular harmonics beamforming with the WFR filter as a preprocess in order to match the reproduced DRR to the original one at the time the direct sound wave is properly reproduced. Simulation results indicated that the DRR reproduced using the proposed method was much closer to that reproduced by the method without beamforming.

    2013 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH AND SIGNAL PROCESSING (ICASSP), IEEE, 271-275, 2013, Peer-reviwed, For with-height reproduction of a sound field, an efficient technique is to record and reproduce the sound field at lower resolution at an elevation angle than that at a horizontal angle based on auditory perception. To achieve this, developing a method using multiple horizontal linear arrays of microphones and loudspeakers is necessary. We propose a sound field reproduction method for a cylindrical array configuration which is based on a wave field reconstruction (WFR) filter analytically derived in the helical wave spectrum domain. The filter is stabilized by introducing a model in which microphones are mounted on a rigid cylindrical baffle. Numerical simulation results indicated that the reproduction accuracy of the proposed method was well preserved in the near-field region along the central axis of the cylinder even when the number of elements at angular position is small.

    2013 PROCEEDINGS OF THE 21ST EUROPEAN SIGNAL PROCESSING CONFERENCE (EUSIPCO), IEEE, 1-5, 2013, Peer-reviwed, This paper proposes a new method of residual echo reduction (ER) to track abrupt increases in the residual echo. The method assumes that the spectral structure of the residual echo is maintained even if the residual echo abruptly increases; then, estimates only of the echo power level can be made in a short observation time. The proposed method instantaneously obtains the echo power level by focusing on all frequency-spectral components, and recalculates the echo component using bothe the obtained power level and the spectral structure estimated with the conventional method. The outstanding performance of the proposed method is demonstrated through objective and subjective experiments. The results revealed that the degradation in speech quality was mitigated even if the echo power level increased during the double-talk periods.

  • An estimation method of sound source orientation using eigenspace variation of spatial correlation matrix

    IEICE Transactions on Fundamentals of Electronics, Communications and Computer Sciences, Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication, Engineers, IEICE, E96-A, 9, 1831-1839, 2013, Peer-reviwed, A method to estimate sound source orientation in a reverberant room using a microphone array is proposed. We extend the conventional modeling of a room transfer function based on the image method in order to take into account the directivity of a sound source. With this extension, a transfer function between a sound source and a listener (or a microphone) is described by the superposition of transfer functions from each image source to the listener multiplied by the source directivity
    thus, the sound source orientation can be estimated by analyzing how the image sources are distributed (power distribution of image sources) from observed signals. We applied eigenvalue analysis to the spatial correlation matrix of the microphone array observation to obtain the power distribution of image sources. Bsed on the assumption that the spatial correlation matrix for each set of source position and orientation is known a priori, the variation of the eigenspace can be modeled. By comparing the eigenspace of observed signals and that of pre-learned models, we estimated the sound source orientation. Through experiments using seven microphones, the sound source orientation was estimated with high accuracy by increasing the reverberation time of a room.

  • MAP ESTIMATION OF DRIVING SIGNALS OF LOUDSPEAKERS FOR SOUND FIELD REPRODUCTION FROM PRESSURE MEASUREMENTS
    Shoichi Koyama; Ken'ichi Furuya; Yusuke Hiwasaki; Yoichi Haneda
    2013 IEEE WORKSHOP ON APPLICATIONS OF SIGNAL PROCESSING TO AUDIO AND ACOUSTICS (WASPAA), IEEE, 1-4, 2013, Peer-reviwed, Sound field reproduction methods calculate driving signals of loudspeakers to reproduce the desired sound field. In common recording and reproduction systems, sound pressures at multiple positions obtained in a recording room are only known as the desired sound field; therefore, signal transformation algorithms from sound pressures into driving signals (SP-DS conversion) are necessary. Although several SP-DS conversion methods have been proposed, they do not take into account a priori information about the recorded sound field. However, approximate positions of sound sources can be obtained by using the received signals of microphones or other sensor data. We propose an SP-DS conversion method based on the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation when array configurations of the microphones and loudspeakers are planar or linear. The optimal basis functions and their coefficients for representing driving signals of the loudspeakers are optimized based on the prior information of the source positions. Numerical simulation results indicate that the proposed method can achieve higher reproduction accuracy compared to the current SP-DS conversion methods, especially in higher frequencies above the spatial Nyquist frequency.

    IEEE Transactions on Audio, Speech and Language Processing, IEEE, 21, 11, 2346-2355, 2013, Peer-reviwed, We generalized our previously proposed diffused sensing for a microphone array design to achieve sharp directive beamforming to enable various filter design methods to be applied. In the conventional microphone array, various filter design methods have been studied to narrow the directivity beam width. However, it is difficult to minimize the power of interference sources in the beamforming output (output interference power) over a broad frequency range since the cross-correlation between transfer functions from sound sources to microphones increases in some frequencies. With the diffused sensing, the cross-correlation is minimized by physically varying the transfer functions. We investigated how a microphone array should be designed in order to minimize the cross-correlation between transfer functions and found that placing the array in a diffuse acoustic field produces optimum results. Because the transfer functions are known a priori, this finding makes it possible to narrow the directivity beam width over a broad frequency range. This observation can be practically achieved by placing microphones inside a reflective enclosure, part of which is open to let sound waves enter. We conducted experiments using 24 microphones and confirmed that the output interference power was reduced over a broad frequency range and the beam width was narrowed by using the diffused sensing. © 2006-2012 IEEE.

  • Sound field reproduction method in spatio-temporal frequency domain considering directivity of loudspeakers
    Shoichi Koyama; Ken'ichi Furuya; Yusuke Hiwasaki; Yoichi Haneda
    132nd Audio Engineering Society Convention 2012, 885-892, 22 Oct. 2012, A method for transforming received signals of a microphone array into driving signals of a loudspeaker array for sound field reproduction is needed to achieve real-time sound field transmission systems from the far-end to the near-end. We recently proposed a transformmethod using planar or linear microphone and loudspeaker arrays in the spatio-temporal frequency domain, which is more efficient than conventional methods based on a least squares algorithm. In this method, the directivity of loudspeakers in the array is assumed to be omni-directional to derive the transform filter. However the directivity of common loudspeakers is not always omni-directional, especially at high frequencies. We therefore propose a transform method that takes into consideration the directivity of loudspeakers in the array, which is derived using analytical and numerical approaches. Numerical simulation results indicated that the accurately reproduced region of the proposed method was larger than that of the method with an omni-directional assumption.

    IEEE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON INTELLIGENT SIGNAL PROCESSING AND COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS (ISPACS 2012), IEEE, 2012, Peer-reviwed, We develop a novel tele-collaboration system with low latency and high reliability by combining three 4K60p JPEG2000 video streaming systems and a 6-channel echo canceller. Our system realizes the synchronization of multiple video streams without even single frame delay. It can transmit 4K 60p streams with one-way latency of 80 msec, so users can communicate with one another with no unnatural pauses. Using a novel high-performance multi-channel acoustic echo canceller, our system can spatially localize each user's speech to the user's displayed position. We conduct a subjective assessment of our system through confrontational role-playing tasks and find that our system helps the subjects to share their feelings and atmosphere and enhances their cooperation.

  • DESIGN OF TRANSFORM FILTER FOR REPRODUCING ARBITRARILY SHIFTED SOUND FIELD USING PHASE-SHIFT OF SPATIO-TEMPORAL FREQUENCY
    Shoichi Koyama; Ken'ichi Furuya; Yusuke Hiwasaki; Yoichi Haneda
    2012 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH AND SIGNAL PROCESSING (ICASSP), IEEE, 381-384, 2012, Peer-reviwed, For real-time sound field transmission systems from a far-end to a near-end, the driving signals of a loudspeaker array at the near-end need to be calculated by using only received signals obtained by a microphone array at the far-end. Additionally, having the capability to control the location of the sound field to be reproduced in order to adjust it to the visual images is advantageous. The goal of this study was to develop a method to transform received signals of a microphone array into driving signals of a loudspeaker array in order to reproduce arbitrary shifted sound fields. We analytically derive a transform filter in the spatio-temporal frequency domain. The location of the sound field to be reproduced is controllable only by phase-shift of the transform filter. The proposed method was found to be computationally efficient compared to the conventional method based on a least squares algorithm, and numerical simulation results indicated that reproduction accuracies were almost the same in both methods.

  • LOCALIZED SOUND REPRODUCTION USING CIRCULAR LOUDSPEAKER ARRAY BASED ON ACOUSTIC EVANESCENT WAVE
    Hiroaki Itou; Ken'ichi Furuya; Yoichi Haneda
    2012 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH AND SIGNAL PROCESSING (ICASSP), IEEE, 221-224, 2012, Peer-reviwed, We present a localized sound reproduction method in which sound energy is high in specified target areas and low everywhere else. Such a system needs to reproduce a sound which attenuates faster than a point source. Our study focuses on an acoustic evanescent wave that has faster distance attenuation. The evanescent wave can be generated when a wave transmitted at subsonic speed between two media. Previously, we used a linear loudspeaker array to reproduce the evanescent wave. Nevertheless, since this method requires a line source of infinite length, a large number of loudspeakers are needed to realize sufficiently fast distance attenuation. To reduce the number of loudspeakers, we propose an evanescent wave reproduction method by using a circular loudspeaker array. Computer simulation results show that our method achieves faster distance attenuation than a point source and reduces the number of loudspeakers to less than that of the linear loudspeaker array.

  • TELESCOPIC MICROPHONE ARRAY USING REFLECTOR FOR SEGREGATING TARGET SOURCE FROM NOISES IN SAME DIRECTION
    Kenta Niwa; Yusuke Hioka; Sumitaka Sakauchi; Ken'ichi Furuya; Yoichi Haneda
    2012 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH AND SIGNAL PROCESSING (ICASSP), IEEE, 5457-5460, 2012, Peer-reviwed, A spatial sensitivity control method for segregating the sound sources in the same direction by using an acoustic reflector is proposed. Our goal is to clearly pick up the target source at an arbitrary position using a microphone array. Though many methods have been studied for spatial sensitivity control, it is difficult to robustly suppress the power of noise sources in the same direction of the target source in a room. To overcome this problem, we attach a reflector to a microphone array to capture the reflected sounds whose characteristics vary depending on the distance from the array to the source. Assuming that the acoustical properties of the reflector are known e.g., measuring the transfer functions, those reflected sounds can be used as effective clues for segregating the sound sources in the same direction. With the proposed method, a filter for minimizing the output noise power is derived by taking into consideration of the acoustic properties of the reflector. Experiments were conducted in an actual room by using 96 microphones and a large reflector. We confirmed that the spatial sensitivities for segregating the target source at an arbitrary position from noise sources can be achieved by using the proposed method.

  • DIFFUSED SENSING FOR SHARP DIRECTIVITY MICROPHONE ARRAY
    Kenta Niwa; Sumitaka Sakauchi; Ken'ichi Furuya; Manabu Okamoto; Yoichi Haneda
    2012 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH AND SIGNAL PROCESSING (ICASSP), IEEE, 225-228, 2012, Peer-reviwed, We propose a method for achieving sharp directivity by sensing signals in a diffuse acoustic field. Directivity control based on a beamforming method has been studied to make it possible to extract the waveform and location of an identified target source even if there are many noise sources. Sharp directivity can be achieved by minimizing the output noise power of a beamforming filter. However, it is difficult to minimize the output noise power over a broad frequency ranges. Our approach for minimizing the output noise power is to control the spatial properties of the transfer functions and the spatial correlation matrix, by using a reflector that surrounds a microphone array. We investigated the relationships between the output noise power and the structure of the spatial correlation matrix and found that it was possible to minimize the output noise power by sensing diffuse acoustic signals and by designing filters taking the diffuseness of the acoustic field into consideration. In experiments, we observed diffusely reflected signals by placing a truncated-octahedral reflector near a spherical microphone array. We designed filters by using measured transfer functions and confirmed that the proposed method was effective for reducing the output noise power and forming a sharp directivity beamforming filter.

  • Reproducing virtual sound sources in front of a loudspeaker array using inverse wave propagator
    Shoichi Koyama; Ken'Ichi Furuya; Yusuke Hiwasaki; Yoichi Haneda
    IEEE Transactions on Audio, Speech and Language Processing, 20, 6, 1746-1758, 2012, Peer-reviwed, It has been possible to reproduce point sound sources between listeners and a loudspeaker array by using the focused-source method. However, this method requires physical parameters of the sound sources to be reproduced, such as source positions, directions, and original signals. This fact makes it difficult to apply the method to real-time reproduction systems because decomposing received signals into such parameters is not a trivial task. This paper proposes a method for recreating virtual sound sources in front of a planar or linear loudspeaker array. The method is based on wave field synthesis but extended to include the inverse wave propagator often used in acoustical holography. Virtual sound sources can be placed between listeners and a loudspeaker array even when the received signals of a microphone array equally aligned with the loudspeaker array are only known. Numerical simulation results are presented to compare the proposed and focused-source methods. A system was constructed consisting of linear microphone and loudspeaker arrays and measurement experiments were conducted in an anechoic room. When comparing the sound field reproduced using the proposed method with that using the focused-source method, it was found that the proposed method could reproduce the sound field at almost the same accuracy. © 2006-2012 IEEE.

  • Inverse wave propagation for reproducing virtual sources in front of loudspeaker array
    Shoichi Koyama; Yusuke Hiwasaki; Ken'ichi Furuya; Yoichi Haneda
    European Signal Processing Conference, 1322-1326, 01 Dec. 2011, This paper presents a new combination of wave field synthesis with inverse wave propagation that can recreate virtual sound sources in front of a loudspeaker array. Wave field synthesis is a well-known sound field reproduction technique, based on the Rayleigh integral, that reconstructs sound pressure distribution by using a planar or linear loudspeaker array. We show that, using a holographic approach, the re-construction position can be displaced towards the listener, in front of the secondary sources. As a result, virtual primary sources can be placed between the listener and the secondary sources. Numerical simulation results are presented to show the efficacy of the proposed method. We implemented an experimental system using linear microphone and loudspeaker arrays to reproduce the sound field in a real environment. Results of perceptual experiments showed that the proposed method can achieve sound localization accuracy for virtual sound sources equivalent to that for real sound sources. © 2011 EURASIP.
  • Estimating Direct-to-Reverberant Energy Ratio Using D/R Spatial Correlation Matrix Model
    Yusuke Hioka; Kenta Niwa; Sumitaka Sakauchi; Ken'ichi Furuya; Yoichi Haneda
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON AUDIO SPEECH AND LANGUAGE PROCESSING, IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 19, 8, 2374-2384, Nov. 2011, Peer-reviwed, We present a method for estimating the direct-to-reverberant energy ratio (DRR) that uses a direct and reverberant sound spatial correlation matrix model (Hereafter referred to as the spatial correlation model). This model expresses the spatial correlation matrix of an array input signal as two spatial correlation matrices, one for direct sound and one for reverberation. The direct sound propagates from the direction of the sound source but the reverberation arrives from every direction uniformly. The DRR is calculated from the power spectra of the direct sound and reverberation that are estimated from the spatial correlation matrix of the measured signal using the spatial correlation model. The results of experiment and simulation confirm that the proposed method gives mostly correct DRR estimates unless the sound source is far from the microphone array, in which circumstance the direct sound picked up by the microphone array is very small. The method was also evaluated using various scales in simulated and actual acoustical environments, and its limitations revealed. We estimated the sound source distance using a small microphone array, which is an example of application of the proposed DRR estimation method.

    ACTA ACUSTICA UNITED WITH ACUSTICA, S HIRZEL VERLAG, 97, 2, 278-283, Mar. 2011, Peer-reviwed, We investigated a new acoustical phenomenon, which we call sweeping echoes, in a two-dimensional (2D) space. Sweeping echoes in a three-dimensional (3D) space have recently been reported. We first investigated the regularity of reflected sound in a 2D regularly shaped space based on number theory. The reflected pulse sound train has almost equal intervals between pulses on the squared-time axis as in a 3D space. This regularity of the arrival time of reflected pulse sounds generates sweeping echoes whose frequencies increase linearly with time. Computer simulation of room acoustics shows good agreement with the theoretical results. We first describe our investigation of a square cross-section based on number theory. Next, we describe rectangular cross-sections with various aspect ratios investigated based on the same theory as that for the square. We also discuss our measurements of sweeping echoes in a long hallway. We propose a method for extracting sweep rates of sweeping echoes by calculating their correlation with a time stretched pulse. We analyzed the sweeping echoes for a source and receiver at the center of a rectangular cross-section. These sweeping echoes were not only perceived at the exact center position but also around the center.

  • A METHOD FOR POSTERIOR FREQUENCY-DOMAIN MULTI-CHANNEL RESIDUAL ECHO CANCELING
    Satoru Emura; Yoichi Haneda
    2011 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING, IEEE, 421-424, 2011, Peer-reviwed, We propose a posterior frequency-domain multi-channel residual echo canceling method. As the number of reproduction channels of an echo canceller increases, its adaptive filter shows a slower convergence of the filter coefficient error, that is, large echo path mismatch. In this situation, the change in the human talker in a remote site produces an abrupt residual echo more frequently. The proposed method immediately cancels this abrupt residual echo by estimating it from loudspeaker-reproduced signals, adaptive filter output, and echo replica with a much shorter frame length compared with adaptive filter length. By taking the echo replica into account, this frequency-domain method can improve residual-echo estimates. Another feature of the proposed method is controlling the residual echo estimates according to the confidence interval of these estimates.

    2011 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING, IEEE, 141-144, 2011, Peer-reviwed, We investigated the multipole loudspeaker array based on spherical harmonic expansion in the Cartesian coordinate system. The arrangement of the multipoles with the least number of loudspeaker units has been studied for 2nd order of spherical harmonic expansion. The directivity of the multipole array does not achieve ideal directivity of the spherical functions due to the asymmetrical arrangement. The multipole array was also applied to an end-fire array because a multipole array uses less loudspeakers than the spherical array if the look-direction is fixed. We compared the performance of the conventional least-squares design method and multipole array method for an end-fire array. The least squares method had a higher directivity due to the large number of variable coefficients. Nevertheless, the multipole array based on spherical harmonic expansion has advantages of easy setup in the Cartesian coordinate system, analytical directivity, and small number of filter coefficients.

    12TH ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE INTERNATIONAL SPEECH COMMUNICATION ASSOCIATION 2011 (INTERSPEECH 2011), VOLS 1-5, ISCA-INT SPEECH COMMUNICATION ASSOC, 2536-2539, 2011, Peer-reviwed, ITU-T Recommendations G.711.1 Annex D and G.722 Annex B, which are super-wideband (50-14,000 Hz) extensions to G.711.1 and G.722, have been recently standardized. This paper introduces a new coding method proposed and employed in the above ITU-T standards. The proposed coding method employs an adaptive spectral masking of the algebraic vector quantization (AVQ) for MDCT-domain non-sparse signals. The adaptive spectral masking is switched on and off based on MDCT-domain sparseness analysis. When the target MDCT coefficients are categorized as non-sparse, masking level of the target MDCT coefficients is adaptively controlled using spectral envelope information. The performance of the proposed method as a part of the ITU-T G.711.1 Annex D is evaluated in comparison with the ordinary AVQ. Subjective listening test results show that the proposed method improves the sound quality more than 0.1 points with a five grade scale in average of speech, music and mixed content, and the significance of the improvement is validated.

  • EVANESCENT WAVE REPRODUCTION USING LINEAR ARRAY OF LOUDSPEAKERS

    2011 IEEE WORKSHOP ON APPLICATIONS OF SIGNAL PROCESSING TO AUDIO AND ACOUSTICS (WASPAA), IEEE, 37-40, 2011, Peer-reviwed, An acoustic evanescent wave reproduction method is presented. Evanescent waves have faster distance attenuation. In most sound field reproduction approaches, the evanescent wave is a spatial aliasing component and is an undesirable wave field for reproducing a pure plane wave. However, because of its faster distance attenuation property, it does not affect these approaches. In this work, we attempt to reproduce only the evanescent wave. If only the evanescent wave is reproduced, it can be applied for a local area sound reproduction system that can localize a sound field around one specific location. The evanescent wave reproduction system is constructed by using a linear loudspeaker array and digital filters. Computer simulation results showed that our method achieves faster distance attenuation than a simple sound source.

    2011 IEEE WORKSHOP ON APPLICATIONS OF SIGNAL PROCESSING TO AUDIO AND ACOUSTICS (WASPAA), IEEE, 5-8, 2011, Peer-reviwed, In this paper, we propose a novel method of sound field reproduction using a microphone array and loudspeaker array. Our objective is to obtain the driving signal of a planar or linear loudspeaker array only from the sound pressure distribution acquired by the planar or linear microphone array. In this study, we derive a formulation of the transform from the received signals of the microphone array to the driving signals of the loudspeaker array. The transform is achieved as a mean of a filter in a spatio-temporal frequency domain. Numerical simulation results are presented to compare the proposed method with the method based on the conventional least square algorithm. The reproduction accuracies were found to be almost the same, however, the filter size and amount of calculation required for the proposed method were much smaller than those for the least square algorithm based one.

  • Evaluating small end-fire loudspeaker array under various reverberations
    Yoichi Haneda; Ken'ichi Furuya; Akitoshi Kataoka
    Acoustical Science and Technology, 32, 6, 244-250, 2011, Peer-reviwed, A compact end-fire loudspeaker array based on the linearly constrained minimum variance has been investigated in various reverberation rooms. In the linearly constrained minimum variance beamformer, the coherent matrix that determines the suppression direction of the radiation sound is important. Therefore, we evaluated the directivities of a loudspeaker array for four different coherent matrices that were calculated using the following methods in which the array will not radiate the sound: (I) for any direction except the reproduction direction, (II) in the direction of several measured room transfer functions, (III) in the direction of several ideal (free field) room transfer functions, and (IV) in the direction of the weighted ideal room transfer functions. To evaluate performance, a 4-element line array of 28-mm-diameter loudspeakers with equal spacing of 48mm was implemented. The array used loudspeaker units without enclosures to shorten the spaces between the units. The directivities of the prototype loudspeaker array were measured in an anechoic room and three reverberant rooms by using the above four methods. The prototype arrays achieved higher directivity of 6 to 15 dB for wideband frequencies (300 Hz to 3.4 kHz) than the single loudspeaker for all methods. Moreover, the experimental results clarified that the array with method (IV), which did not use prior measured room transfer functions, had efficient performance in comparison with the array with method (II), especially when the reverberation time was 120 ms or less. © 2011 The Acoustical Society of Japan.

  • Improving Power Spectra Estimation in 2-Dimensional Areas Using Number of Active Sound Sources
    Yusuke Hioka; Ken'ichi Furuya; Yoichi Haneda; Akitoshi Kataoka
    IEICE TRANSACTIONS ON FUNDAMENTALS OF ELECTRONICS COMMUNICATIONS AND COMPUTER SCIENCES, IEICE-INST ELECTRONICS INFORMATION COMMUNICATIONS ENG, E94A, 1, 273-281, Jan. 2011, Peer-reviwed, An improvement of estimating sound power spectra located in a particular 2-dimensional area is proposed. We previously proposed a conventional method that estimates sound power spectra using multiple fixed beamformings in order to emphasize speech located in a particular 2-dimensional area. However, the method has one drawback that the number of areas where the active sound sources are located must be restricted. This restriction makes the method less effective when many noise source located in different areas are simultaneously active. In this paper, we reveal the cause of this restriction and determine the maximum number of areas for which the method is able to simultaneously estimate sound power spectra. Then we also introduce a procedure for investigating areas that include active sound sources to reduce the number of unknown power spectra to be estimated. The effectiveness of the proposed method is examined by experimental evaluation applied to sounds recorded in a practical environment.

The DRSC model, which expresses the spatial correlation matrix with two different matrices of direct sound and reverberation, assumes that the direct sound propagates only from the direction of the sound source but that the reverberation arrives from every direction uniformly. The DRR is calculated from the power spectra of both the direct sound and reverberation that are estimated from the spatial correlation matrix of the observed signal. The method was evaluated using various scales in both simulated and actual acoustical environments. The evaluation results confirmed the effectiveness of DRR estimation using the DRSC model and also revealed its limitations. Copyright © (2010) by the International Congress on Acoustics.

    2010 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING, IEEE, 129-132, 2010, Peer-reviwed, We propose a method for estimating the sound source orientation by using the reflection sounds. The sound source orientation is important spatial information for promoting communication using teleconference systems. We assume that the observed signals captured using several microphones in a reverberant room are used for estimating the sound source orientation. Since the power of each reflection sound depends on the sound source orientation, the transfer functions between a sound source and multiple microphones are varied corresponding to the sound source orientation. We found that the eigenspace of spatial correlation constructed from the observed signals has a characteristic shape corresponding to the sound source orientation. We also proposed an efficient method for estimating the sound source orientation by matching the eigenspace of observed signals with pre-learned eigenspace models for every sound source orientation. In numerical experiments, we obtained about 80% accuracy. We confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed method.

    2010 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING, IEEE, 149-152, 2010, Peer-reviwed, A new approach for estimating the direct-to-reverberant energy ratio (DRR) using a microphone array is proposed. The method is based on amodel of a spatial correlation matrix that segregates direct sound and reverberation. It estimates DRR from the power spectra of both components, which are derived from the correlation matrix of the observed signal. In experiments performed in simulated and actual reverberant environments, the proposed method mostly succeeded in estimating DRR accurately. We also present speech enhancement using binary masking as an example of an application of the estimated DRR. By utilization of the DRR as a factor to discriminate the distances of speakers, separation of speech signals whose sources were located in the same direction but at different distances was achieved.

  • Speech enhancement in a 2-dimensional area based on power spectrum estimation of multiple areas with investigation of existence of active sources
    Yusuke Hioka; Ken'ichi Furuya; Yoichi Haneda; Akitoshi Kataoka
    INTERSPEECH 2009: 10TH ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE INTERNATIONAL SPEECH COMMUNICATION ASSOCIATION 2009, VOLS 1-5, ISCA-INT SPEECH COMMUNICATION ASSOC, 1331-+, 2009, Peer-reviwed, A microphone array that emphasizes sound sources located in a particular 2-dimensional area is described. We previously developed a method that estimates the power spectra of target and noise sounds using multiple fixed beamformings. However, that method requires the areas where the noise sources are located to be restricted. We describe the principle of this limitation then propose a procedure that investigates the possibility of the existence of a sound source in a target area and other areas beforehand to reduce the number of unknown power spectra to be estimated.

  • Dynamic impulse response model for nonlinear acoustic system and its application to acoustic echo canceller
    Shoichiro Saito; Akira Nakagawa; Yoichi Haneda
    IEEE Workshop on Applications of Signal Processing to Audio and Acoustics, -, 201-204, 2009, Peer-reviwed, We proposed a dynamic impulse response model for a nonlinear acoustic system and a nonlinear acoustic echo canceller based on this model. In an acoustic system with small loudspeakers and low-quality enclosures, acoustic signal paths between loudspeakers and microphones often include nonlinearity. Such paths cannot be represented with a conventional linear system. We investigated the impulse responses with various input signal levels and find that the responses differed with regularity in accordance with the level of the input signal. Thus, we propose a dynamic impulse response model based on this fact. In this model, the system response varies in accordance with the input signal levels and the nonlinearity can be approximated with a set of linear filters. We applied this model to an acoustic echo canceller, and experimental evaluations using a small acoustic system show that the echo cancellation performance of the proposed method is improved relative to that of the conventional method by 4 dB on average and 10 dB at maximum. ©2009 IEEE.

  • Robust frequency domain acoustic echo cancellation filter employing normalized residual echo enhancement
    Suehiro Shimauchi; Yoichi Haneda; Akitoshi Kataoka
    IEICE TRANSACTIONS ON FUNDAMENTALS OF ELECTRONICS COMMUNICATIONS AND COMPUTER SCIENCES, IEICE-INST ELECTRONICS INFORMATION COMMUNICATIONS ENG, E91A, 6, 1347-1356, Jun. 2008, Peer-reviwed, We propose a new robust frequency domain acoustic echo cancellation filter that employs a normalized residual echo enhancement. By interpreting the conventional robust step-size control approaches as a statistical-model-based residual echo enhancement problem, the optimal step-size introduced in the most of conventional approaches is regarded as optimal only on the assumption that both the residual echo and the outlier in the error output signal are described by Gaussian distributions. However, the Gaussian-Gaussian mixture assumption does not always hold well, especially when both the residual echo and the outlier are speech signals (known as a double-talk situation). The proposed filtering scheme is based on the Gaussian-Laplacian mixture assumption for the signals normalized by the reference input signal amplitude. By comparing the performances of the proposed and conventional approaches through the simulations, we show that the Gaussian-Laplacian mixture assumption for the normalized signals can provide a better control scheme for the acoustic echo cancellation.

  • Noise robust speech dereverberation using constrained inverse filter
    Ken'ichi Furuya; Akitoshi Kataoka; Yoichi Haneda
    INTERSPEECH 2008: 9TH ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE INTERNATIONAL SPEECH COMMUNICATION ASSOCIATION 2008, VOLS 1-5, ISCA-INT SPEECH COMMUNICATION ASSOC, 427-+, 2008, Peer-reviwed, A noise robust dereverberation method is presented for speech enhancement in noisy reverberant conditions. This method introduces the constraint of minimizing the noise power in the inverse filter computation of dereverberation. It is shown that there exists a tradeoff between reducing the reverberation and reducing the noise; this tradeoff can be controlled by the constraint. Inverse filtering reduces early reflections and directional noise. In addition, spectral subtraction is used to suppress the tail of the inverse-filtered reverberation and residual noise. The performance of our method is objectively and subjectively evaluated in experiments using measured room impulse responses. The results indicate that this method provides better speech quality than the conventional methods.

  • An approach to solve local minimum problem in sound source and microphone localization
    Kazunori Kobayashi; Ken'ichi Furuya; Yoichi Haneda; Akitoshi Kataoka
    IEICE TRANSACTIONS ON FUNDAMENTALS OF ELECTRONICS COMMUNICATIONS AND COMPUTER SCIENCES, IEICE-INST ELECTRONICS INFORMATION COMMUNICATIONS ENG, E90A, 12, 2826-2834, Dec. 2007, Peer-reviwed, We previously proposed a method of sound source and microphone localization. The method estimates the locations of sound sources and microphones from only time differences of arrival between signals picked up by microphones even if all their locations are unknown. However, there is a problem that some estimation results converge to local minimum solutions because this method estimates locations iteratively and the error function has multiple minima. In this paper, we present a new iterative method to solve the local minimum problem. This method achieves accurate estimation by selecting effective initial locations from many random initial locations. The computer simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the presented method eliminates most local minimum solutions. Furthermore, the computational complexity of the presented method is similar to that of the previous method.

  • Gradient-limited affine projection algorithm for double-talk-robust and fast-converging acoustic echo cancellation
    Suehiro Shimauchi; Yoichi Haneda; Akitoshi Kataoka; Akinori Nishihara
    IEICE TRANSACTIONS ON FUNDAMENTALS OF ELECTRONICS COMMUNICATIONS AND COMPUTER SCIENCES, IEICE-INST ELECTRONICS INFORMATION COMMUNICATIONS ENG, E90A, 3, 633-641, Mar. 2007, Peer-reviwed, We propose a gradient-limited affine projection algorithm (GL-APA), which can achieve fast and double-talk-robust convergence in acoustic echo cancellation. GL-APA is derived from the M-estimationbased nonlinear cost function extended for evaluating multiple error signals dealt with in the affine projection algorithm (APA). By considering the non-linearity of the gradient, we carefully formulate an update equation consistent with multiple input-output relationships, which the conventional APA inherently satisfies to achieve fast convergence. We also newly introduce a scaling rule for the nonlinearity, so we can easily implement GL-APA by using a predetermined primary function as a basis of scaling with any projection order. This guarantees a linkage between GL-APA and the gradientlimited normalized least-mean-squares algorithm (OL-NLMS), which is a conventional algorithm that corresponds to the GL-APA of the first order. The performance of GL-APA is demonstrated with simulation results.

    Acoustical Science and Technology, 28, 3, 172-180, 2007, Peer-reviwed, In this paper, we provide an overview of a new immersive, cost-effective stereo echo canceller that we have developed recently. To achieve immersive stereo hands-free communication, we expanded the frequency range from 0.1-7 kHz to 0.1-20 kHz and revised the echo reduction processing. To achieve a cost-effective canceller, we revised the adaptive algorithm to reduce the required memory and implemented the entire signal processing in a single fixed-point digital signal processor (DSP). The experiments indicate that the new stereo echo canceller delivers near-end speech and background sound more naturally under the double-talk situation. © 2007 The Acoustical Society of Japan.

  • Stereo echo cancellation algorithm using adaptive update on the basis of enhanced input-signal vector
    S Emura; Y Haneda; A Kataoka; S Makino
    SIGNAL PROCESSING, ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 86, 6, 1157-1167, Jun. 2006, Peer-reviwed, Stereo echo cancellation requires a fast converging adaptive algorithm because the stereo input signals are highly cross correlated and the convergence rate of the misalignment is slow even after preprocessing for unique identification of stereo echo paths. To speed up the convergence, we propose enhancing the contribution of the decorrelated components in the preprocessed input-signal vector to adaptive updates. The adaptive filter coefficients are updated on the basis of either a single or multiple past enhanced input-signal vectors.
    For a single-vector update, we show how this enhancement improves the convergence rate by analyzing the behavior of the filter coefficient error in the mean. For a two-past-vector update, simulation showed that the proposed enhancement leads to a faster decrease in misalignment than the corresponding conventional second-order affine projection algorithm while computational complexities are almost the same.

  • Noise reduction with less processing delay for analysis and synthesis using a single microphone
    S Sakauchi; Y Haneda; A Kataoka
    ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATIONS IN JAPAN PART III-FUNDAMENTAL ELECTRONIC SCIENCE, SCRIPTA TECHNICA-JOHN WILEY & SONS, 89, 2, 24-32, 2006, Peer-reviwed, To realize comfortable voice communication with reduced steady ambient noise such as air conditioning noise, there is a form of noise suppression processing based on short-time spectral amplitude estimation. This is a frequency domain process using one microphone. Since the amount of processing is rather small, this is an extremely useful method for realization of equipment and applications. However, the processing delay associated with frame processing in the frequency domain causes deterioration of the voice communications quality. To deal with this problem, the present research proposes a scheme to reduce the processing delay. In the proposed system, deterioration of the processing quality is prevented by retaining the frequency resolution and the processing delay is reduced by compressing the shift width of the processing frame by performing overlap-addition. Objective evaluation confirms that the processing delay can be reduced to one-eighth while retaining a noise suppression capability similar to that in the conventional method. A subjective evaluation experiment confirms that voice quality similar to that in the usual method is attained. (c) 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

  • A robust NLMS algorithm for acoustic echo cancellation

    ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATIONS IN JAPAN PART III-FUNDAMENTAL ELECTRONIC SCIENCE, SCRIPTA TECHNICA-JOHN WILEY & SONS, 89, 11, 1-9, 2006, Peer-reviwed, When an adaptive filter is applied for an acoustic echo canceler, realization of robustness in the presence of double talk is an important subject. In this paper, based on M-estimation, a robust statistical technique, a cost function expressing the normalized least-mean-square algorithm (NLMS), is modified to derive the gradient-limited NLMS (GL-NLMS) algorithm. This technique makes use of the statistical characteristic that the ratio of the error and reference signal levels has different distributions during single talk and double talk. The gradient used for updating in the NLMS algorithm is limited to a nonlinear form, so high robustness against double talk is achieved. (c) 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

  • An acoustic echo canceler with noise and echo reduction
    S Sakauchi; Y Haneda; M Tanaka; J Sasaki; A Kataoka
    ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATIONS IN JAPAN PART III-FUNDAMENTAL ELECTRONIC SCIENCE, SCRIPTA TECHNICA-JOHN WILEY & SONS, 88, 3, 21-31, 2005, Peer-reviwed, yAn acoustic echo canceler, needed for hands-free telecommunications in videoconferencing, has been realized with sufficient performance for use in a quiet meeting room. However, demand has been increasing for the use of hands-free teleconferencing in an environment with ambient noise such as conference calls in a noisy office or in a running automobile. In response to such demands, this paper proposes an echo canceler with acapability of simultaneously suppressing stationary ambient noise superposed on the speech and also residual echo, which cannot be eliminated by conventional echo cancelers because it is buried in noise. In this paper, the noise reduction and echo reduction process, based on the short-time spectrum amplitude estimation, is first explained. Then the results of objective evaluation of a test-fabricated echo canceler are presented. The evaluation results confirm that the echo can be reduced by about 30 dB and the ambient noise by about 15 dB even in an environment with ambient noise, allowing satisfactory hands-free conference calling to be realized.

  • Frequency domain adaptive algorithm with nonlinear function of error-to-reference ratio for double-talk robust echo cancellation
    Suehiro Shimauchi; Yoichi Haneda; Akitoshi Kataoka
    Acoustical Science and Technology, 26, 1, 8-15, Jan. 2005, Peer-reviwed, Several adaptive algorithms for robust echo cancellation use nonlinear reference and/or error functions. Most of them require time-variant threshold estimators, e.g., noise level estimators or double-talk detectors, since their nonlinearities have to be adjusted in response to changes in near-end noise or speech signal levels. We propose a new frequency domain adaptive algorithm: the gradient-limited fast least-mean-squares (GL-FLMS), in which the coefficients are updated by using a nonlinear function of the error scaled by the reference magnitude, i.e., the error-to-reference ratio (ERR). When the acoustic coupling level between loudspeaker and microphone is bounded, the ERR is also bounded in the case of single-talk, but may increase during double-talk. The GL-FLMS limits unexpected increases in the ERR with fixed thresholds and prevents divergence of the coefficients, while not neglecting updates to adjust when a large reference signal introduces a large error during single-talk.

The imbalance between two echo paths in magnitude slows down the convergence rate of the adaptive filter for stereo echo cancellation. To speed up the convergence rate, the proposed method extracts the information about filter-coefficient errors of each unknown echo path, and controls the step-size of each channel accordingly.

An adaptive algorithm for this task should also be robust against such disturbances as near-end speech and near-end noise. We propose a coherence-based method of step-size control that provides robustness in stereo echo cancellation. Computer simulation demonstrated that the method was robust against near-end speech and noise, and was capable of quickly tracking change in echo paths.

  • Active noise control with a virtual microphone based on common-acoustical-pole and residue model

    2002 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING, VOLS I-IV, PROCEEDINGS, IEEE, 2, 1877-1880, 2002, Peer-reviwed, A local active noise control (ANC)system with a virtual microphone based on the common-acoustical-pole and residue (CAPR) model is proposed.
    In conventional ANC systems, the microphone(s) must be set close to the listener's car for maximum effectiveness, because the "quiet zone" is generated only around the error sensor in a room. However, this is often cumbersome, so the microphoneshould ideally be located away from the target "quiet" position.
    When modeling the room transfer functions (RTFs) based on the CAPR model, we can extrapolate an RTF from several RTFs observed in a simple rectangular room. By applying this extrapolation method to the ANC system, we can estimate and reduce the noise sound pressure at the virtual microphone position.
    Computer simulation or the proposed ANC system in a small rectangular room demonstrates that the peak frequencies of the noise can be eliminated well at the virtual microphone position.

  • A study of an adaptive alogrithm for stereo signals with a power difference

    2002 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING, VOLS I-IV, PROCEEDINGS, IEEE, 2, 1913-1916, 2002, Peer-reviwed, With broadband networks spreading, high-presence acoustic communication like stereophonic full-duplex communication is desired. When loudspeakers and microphones are used for hands-free communication, a stereophonic acoustic echo canceller (SAEC) is required to avoid howling and echoes. However, when there is a large power difference between stereo signals received from the far-end, the performance of the acoustic echo canceller is degraded; that is the convergence speed of the coefficient error is low. In this paper, to overcome this problem, we propose a new adaptive algorithm for the SAEC that uses the adjustment vector. Each channel received a signal normalized by the root of their squared sum. Computer simulation shows that the proposed algorithm improves the convergence speed for stereo signals with a power difference.

    IEICE TRANSACTIONS ON FUNDAMENTALS OF ELECTRONICS COMMUNICATIONS AND COMPUTER SCIENCES, IEICE-INST ELECTRONICS INFORMATION COMMUNICATIONS ENG, E83A, 12, 2633-2639, Dec. 2000, Peer-reviwed, We investigated the dependence of the desired echo return loss on frequency for various hands-free telecommunication conditions by subjective assessment The desired echo return loss as a function of frequency (DERLf) is all important factor in the design and performance evaluation of a subband echo canceller, and it is a measure of what is considered all acceptable echo caused by electrical loss in the transmission line. The DERLf during single talk was obtained as attenuated band-limited echo levels that subjects did not find objectionable when listening to the near-end speech and its band-limited echo under various hands-free telecommunication conditions. When we investigated the DERLf during double-talk, subjects also heard the speech in the far-end room from a loudspeaker. The echo was limited to a 250-Hz bandwidth assuming the use of a subband echo canceller. The test results showed that: (1) when the transmission delay was short (30 ms), the echo component around 2 to 3 kHz was the most objectionable to listeners. (2) as the transmission delay rose to 300 ms, the echo component around 1 kHz became the most objectionable; (3) when the room reverberation time was relatively long (about 500 ms). the echo cumyonent around 1 kHz was the most objectionable even if the transmission delay was short; and ( 1) the DERLf during double-talk was about 5 to 10dB lower than that during single-talk. Use of these DERLf values will enable the design of mure efficient subband echo cancellers.

  • Channel-number-compressed multi-channel acoustic echo canceller for high-presence teleconferencing system with large display
    A Nakagawa; S Shimauchi; Y Haneda; S Aoki; S Makino
    2000 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING, PROCEEDINGS, VOLS I-VI, IEEE, 2, 813-816, 2000, Peer-reviwed, Sound localization is important to make conversation easy between local and remote sites in a teleconference. This requires a multi-channel sound system having a multi-channel acoustic echo canceller (MAEC). The appropriate number of channels is determined from a trade-off between high presence and MAEC performance, so it is not possible to increase the channel number by much.
    We propose a channel-number-compressed MAEC to provide teleconferencing systems that exhibit high presence. The channel number of the MAEC inputs is compressed and that of its outputs is expanded.

  • Common-acoustical-pole and residue model and its application to spatial interpolation and extrapolation of a room transfer function
    Y Haneda; Y Kaneda; N Kitawaki
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SPEECH AND AUDIO PROCESSING, IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 7, 6, 709-717, Nov. 1999, Peer-reviwed, A method is proposed for modeling a room transfer function (RTF) by using common acoustical poles and their residues. The common acoustical poles correspond to the resonance frequencies (eigenfrequencies) of the room, so they are independent of the source and receiver positions. The residues correspond to the eigenfunctions of the room. Therefore, the residue, which is a function of the source and receiver positions, can be expressed using simple analytical functions for rooms with a simple geometry such as rectangular. That is, the proposed model can describe RTF variations using simple residue functions. Based on the proposed common-acoustical-pole and residue model, methods are also proposed for spatially interpolating and extrapolating RTF's, Because the common acoustical poles are invariant in a given room, the interpolation or extrapolation of RTF's is reformulated as a problem of interpolating or extrapolating residue values. The experimental results for a rectangular room, in which the residue values are interpolated or extrapolated by using a cosine function or a linear prediction method, demonstrate that unknown RTF's can be well estimated at low frequencies from known (measured) RTF's by using the proposed methods.

  • Subband echo canceler with an exponentially weighted stepsize NLMS adaptive filter
    S Makino; Y Haneda
    ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATIONS IN JAPAN PART III-FUNDAMENTAL ELECTRONIC SCIENCE, SCRIPTA TECHNICA-JOHN WILEY & SONS, 82, 3, 49-57, Mar. 1999, Peer-reviwed, This paper proposes a novel adaptive algorithm for an echo canceler. In this algorithm, the number of operations and memory capacity are equivalent to those of the conventional NLMS algorithm but the convergence speed is twice that using the conventional algorithm. This adaptive algorithm is referred to as subband ES (exponentially weighted stepsize). In the algorithm, the frequency bands of the received input signal and echo signal are divided into multiple subbands, and echo is independently canceled in each subband. Each adaptive filter in each subband has independent coefficients with an independent stepsize. The stepsize is time-independent and its weight is exponentially proportional to the change of the impulse response within the frequency region, such as the expected value of the difference between the waveforms of two impulse responses. As a result, the characteristic of the acoustic echo path in each frequency band is analyzed using the adaptive algorithm to improve the convergence characteristic. Using the results of computer simulation and experimental results obtained via an experimental setup with DSP, it is shown that the convergence speed with respect to input voice signal can be about 4 times faster when using echo cancellation based on the new algorithm than in conventional full-band echo cancellation based on the NLMS algorithm.

  • Common-acoustical-pole and zero modeling of head-related transfer functions
    Y Haneda; S Makino; Y Kaneda; N Kitawaki
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SPEECH AND AUDIO PROCESSING, IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 7, 2, 188-196, Mar. 1999, Peer-reviwed, Use of a common-acoustical-pole and zero model is proposed for modeling head-related transfer functions (HRTF's) for various directions of sound incidence. The HRTF's are expressed using the common acoustical poles, which do not depend on the source directions, and the zeros, which do, The common acoustical poles are estimated as they are common to HRTF's for various source directions; the estimated values of the poles agree well with the resonance frequencies of the ear canal. Because this model uses only the zeros to express the HRTF variations due to changes in source direction, it requires fewer parameters (the order of the zeros) that depend on the source direction than do the conventional all zero or pole/zero models. Furthermore, the proposed model can extract the zeros that are missed in the conventional models because of pole-zero cancellation. As a result, the directional dependence of the zeros can be traced well. Analysis of the zeros for HRTF's on the horizontal plane showed that the nonminimum-phase zero variation was well formulated using a simple pinna-reflection model, The common-acoustical-pole and zero (CAPZ) model is thus effective for modeling and analyzing HRTF's.

  • A stereo echo canceller implemented using a stereo shaker and a duo-filter control system
    S Shimauchi; S Makino; Y Haneda; A Nakagawa; S Sakauchi
    ICASSP '99: 1999 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING, PROCEEDINGS VOLS I-VI, IEEE, 2, 857-860, 1999, Peer-reviwed, Stereo echo cancellation has been achieved and used in daily teleconferencing. To overcome the non-uniqueness problem, a stereo shaker is introduced in eight frequency bands and adjusted so as to be inaudible and not affect stereo perception. A duo-filter control system including a continually running adaptive filter and a fixed filter is used for double-talk control. A second-order stereo projection algorithm is used in the adaptive filter. A stereo voice switch is also included. This stereo echo canceller was tested in two-way conversation in a conference room, and the strength of the stereo shaker was subjectively adjusted. A misalignment of 20 dB was obtained in the teleconferencing environment, and changing the talker's position in the transmission room did not affect the cancellation. This echo canceller is now used daily in a high-presence teleconferencing system and has been demonstrated to more than 300 attendees.

  • New configuration for a stereo echo canceller with nonlinear pre-processing
    S Shimauchi; Y Haneda; S Makino; Y Kaneda
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE 1998 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH AND SIGNAL PROCESSING, VOLS 1-6, IEEE, 6, 3685-3688, 1998, Peer-reviwed, A new configuration for a stereo echo canceller with nonlinear pre-processing is proposed. The pre-processor which adds uncorrelated components to the original received stereo signals improves the adaptive filter convergence even in the conventional configuration. However, because of the inaudibility restriction, the preprocessed signals still include a large amount of the original stereo signals which are often highly cross-correlated. Therefore, the improvement is limited. To overcome this, our new stereo echo canceller includes exclusive adaptive filters whose inputs are the uncorrelated signals generated in the pre-processor. These exclusive adaptive filters converge to true solutions without suffering from cross-correlation between the original stereo signals. This is demonstrated through computer simulation results.

  • Multiple-point equalization of room transfer functions by using common acoustical poles
    Y Haneda; S Makino; Y Kaneda
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SPEECH AND AUDIO PROCESSING, IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 5, 4, 325-333, Jul. 1997, Peer-reviwed, A multiple-point equalization filter using the common acoustical poles of room transfer functions is proposed, The common acoustical poles correspond to the resonance frequencies, which are independent of source and receiver positions. They are estimated as common autoregressive (AR) coefficients from multiple room transfer functions. The equalization is achieved with a finite impulse response (FIR) filter, which has the inverse characteristics of the common acoustical pole function. Although the proposed filter cannot recover the frequency response dips of the multiple room transfer functions, it can suppress their common peaks due to resonance; it is also less sensitive to changes in receiver position, Evaluation of the proposed equalization filter using measured room transfer functions shows that it can reduce the deviations in the frequency characteristics of multiple room transfer functions better than a conventional multiple-point inverse filter, Experiments show that the proposed filter enables 1-5 dB additional amplifier gain in a public address system without acoustic feedback at multiple receiver positions, Furthermore, the proposed filter reduces the reflected sound in room impulse responses without the pre-echo that occurs with a multiple-point inverse filter. A multiple-point equalization filter using common acoustical poles can thus equalize multiple room transfer functions by suppressing their common peaks.

  • Subband stereo echo canceller using the projection algorithm with fast convergence to the true echo path
    S Makino; K Strauss; S Shimauchi; Y Haneda; A Nakagawa
    1997 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING, VOLS I - V, IEEE COMPUTER SOC, 1, 299-302, 1997, Peer-reviwed, This paper proposes a new subband stereo echo canceller that converges to the true echo path impulse response much faster than conventional stereo echo cancellers. Since signals are bandlimited and downsampled in the subband structure, the time interval between the subband signals become longer, so the variation of the crosscorrelation between the stereo input signals becomes large. Consequently, convergence to the true solution is improved. Furthermore, the projection algorithm, or affine projection algorithm, is applied to further speed up the convergence. Computer simulations using stereo signals recorded in a conference room demonstrate that this method significantly improves convergence speed and almost solves the problem of stereo echo cancellation with low computational load.

  • Common Acoustical Pole and Zero Modeling of Room Transfer Functions
    Yoichi Haneda; Shoji Makino; Yutaka Kaneda
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SPEECH AND AUDIO PROCESSING, IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 2, 2, 320-328, Apr. 1994, Peer-reviwed, A new model for a room transfer function (RTF) by using common acoustical poles that correspond to resonance properties of a room is proposed. These poles are estimated as the common values of many RTF's corresponding to different source and receiver positions. Since there is one-to-one correspondence between poles and AR coefficients, these poles are calculated as common AR coefficients by two methods: i) using the least squares method, assuming all the given multiple RTF's have the same AR coefficients and ii) averaging each set of AR coefficients estimated from each RTF. The estimated poles agree well with the theoretical poles when estimated with the same order as the theoretical pole order. When estimated with a lower order than the theoretical pole order, the estimated poles correspond to the major resonance frequencies, which have high Q factors. Using the estimated common AR coefficients, the proposed method models the RTF's with different MA coefficients. This model is called the common-acoustical-pole and zero (CAPZ) model, and it requires far fewer variable parameters to represent RTF's than the conventional all-zero or pole/zero model. This model was used for an acoustic echo canceller at low frequencies, as one example. The acoustic echo canceller based on the proposed model requires half the variable parameters and converges 1.5 times faster than one based on the all-zero model, confirming the efficiency of the proposed model.

  • Investigation of local area sound reproduction using a circular array of loudspeakers with null-space based sound field control
    SEKI Takayuki; HANEDA Yoichi
    We investigated a local area sound reproduction system where the listener can hear the sound only in the proximity of the loudspeaker. In this paper, we used the circular loudspeaker array with null-space based sound field control (NBSFC) to create a local area sound reproduction system based on the boundary surface control principle. The performance of the prototype system of the circular loudspeaker array was evaluated in an anechoic chamber. As a result, the prototype system exhibited a quicker sound attenuation than the monopole sound source in the frequency range of 500-1500 Hz. In addition, we compared the filter coefficients of the loudspeaker array of the NBSFC method with those of the evanescent wave method. In the NBSFC method, the filters on both side of the filter that has a positive phase have opposite phases and half amplitudes. On the other hand, in the evanescent wave method, the filters alternately exhibit a plus or minus sign while having the same amplitude. In both cases, the sounds radiated from the loudspeakers may instantaneously cancel each other by opposite phases to achieve a quicker sound attenuation., The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 02 Mar. 2015, IEICE technical report.

  • Multi-layer Speech Coding Using Combination of Modes Based on Sparseness of Input Spectrum : ITU-T G.722/G.711.1 Super Wideband Extension Candidate
    FUKUI Masahiro; TSUTSUMI Kimitaka; SASAKI Shigeaki; HIWASAKI Yusuke; HANEDA Yoichi
    This paper describes a coding algorithm for 8-14 kHz bandwith layer of a scalable speech codec, submitted by a consortium including NTT as a candidate in the qualification phase of ITU-T G.722/G.711.1 super wideband extension standardization. The candidate codec achieves high speech quality irrespective of the sound source by using the proposed multistage quantization in the MDCT domain that selects the best encoding scheme among four modes according to the characteristic of various sound sources. The subjective test results showed that the candidate codec obtained higher scores than the reference codec in all samples and passed all requirements of the standardization in listening quality., The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 14 Jan. 2010, IEICE technical report, 109, 376, 279-284, Japanese, 0913-5685, 110008002498, AN10476092

  • Stereo echo cancellation using MS stereo signals for input signals
    NAKAGAWA Akira; HANEDA Yoichi; KATAOKA Akitoshi
    The convergence speed of stereo echo cancellation is slower than that of monaural echo cancellation becouse of the strong correlation between stereo signals. However, stereo echo cancellation requires a fast convergence. The proposed method can improve the convergence speed by using additional and subtracted signals from the stereo signals as input signals for stereo echo cancellation. First, we show that convergence speed is the same, even if the additional and subtracted signals are used instead of the stereo signals. Next, we focus on the power difference between the additional and subtracted signals and improve the convergence speed by using a different normalization for each input signal. The power difference between stereo signals depends on the method of picking up speech, a hybrid configuration that properly uses the appropriate adaptive altorithm for various power differences is presented. The effectiveness of this is confirmed by computer simulations., The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 30 May 2008, IEICE technical report, 108, 71, 27-32, 0913-5685, 110006825151, AA11943613
  • Noise power estimation based on noise ratio in signal and its noise reduction performance
    FUKUI Masahiro; SHIMAUCHI Suehiro; NAKAGAWA Akira; HANEDA Yoichi; KATAOKA Akitoshi
    Noise power estimation for noisy speech signals is required for noise reduction systems. This paper presents a robust noise power estimation method. The proposed method can estimate the noise power even in a speech period with high accuracy by estimating the ratio of input signal power to noise power for every frequency bin successively. First, proposed method estimates the input-signal-power-to-noise-power ratio to calculate the noise power by assuming that the noise amplitude of every frequency bin is constant in a short period. Next, proposed method improves the estimation accuracy by compensating for the estimation error caused by time variations in the actual noise amplitude. The performance of these two methods is demonstrated by simulation results in which the noise was suppressed with high accuracy., The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 07 Mar. 2008, IEICE technical report, 107, 532, 85-90, 0913-5685, 110006952148, AN10164817

  • Echo Reduction for FM-bandwidth signal : Acoustic coupling estimation during double-talk periods
    SAKAUCHI Sumitaka; HANEDA Yoichi; KATAOKA Akitoshi
    Echo reduction based on short-time spectral amplitude estimation is nonlinear processing in the frequency domain for hands-free telecommunications. A frequency characteristic of acoustic coupling between loud-speaker and microphone is needed to calculate the echo-reducing gain. It is difficult to estimate the acoustic coupling during the double-talk period by the conventional method. Moreover, the acoustic coupling estimation speed at high frequencies is too slow. We propose new acoustic coupling estimation methods used in the echo reduction for FM-bandwidth (32 kHz sampling) signal. One using harmonic structures of echoes and near-end speech can estimate the acoustic coupling during double-talk periods. The other using frequency characteristics of an acoustic echo path can estimate the acoustic coupling around high frequencies faster than the conventional method. Computer simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method increased the estimation speed of the acoustic coupling around high frequencies during the double-talk period., The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 21 Jan. 2005, Technical report of IEICE.

  • A study on an error-memoryless affine projection algorithm : Application to acoustic echo cancellation
    SHIMAUCHI Suehiro; HANEDA Yoichi; KATAOKA Akitoshi
    The affine projection algorithm (APA) is one of the most popular adaptive algorithms for acoustic echo cancellation. The advantage of APA is fast convergence with a relative small computational cost, especially for colored signals such as speech. APA updates the filter coefficients by simultaneously minimizing the current and past error signals between the observed desired signals and the filter outputs. In this report, we propose a new adaptive algorithm, the error-memoryless affine projection algorithm (EMAPA), by modifying the second-order APA. Unlike APA, EMAPA does not use the past error signal directly, but uses the approximated past error estimated from the current error signal and the correlation between current and past input signals. By choosing step-size properly, EMAPA can achieve similar characteristics to APA at lower computational cost., The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 10 Dec. 2004, Technical report of IEICE.

  • Gain Function Emphasis for Echo Reduction in Frequency Domain
    SAKAUCHI Sumitaka; HANEDA Yoichi; KATAOKA Akitoshi
    Echo reduction based on a short-time spectral amplitude estimation is non-linear processing in the frequency domain. This has a smaller calculation cost than an adaptive filter. It acts robustly when the echo-path changes, and can provide double-talk, which loss insertion, e.g., a voice switch, can not. In this paper, we explain the basic method of calculating the echo reducing gain in the frequency domain, propose an emphasis method for the echo reducing gain that reduces the loss of transmitted speech and improves the echo-suppression level. For characteristics in a frequency bin, the gain emphasis method estimates whether or not the echo or speech is occupied and colors the frequency coefficients of the echo reducing gain. Computer simulation results show that the proposed method improved the echo-suppression level by more than 10 dB without distorting the transmitted speech., The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 18 Jun. 2004, Technical report of IEICE.

  • A robust NLMS algorithm for acoustic echo cancellation
    SHIMAUCHI Suehiro; HANEDA Yoichi; KATAOKA Akitoshi
    Robustness against double-talk is one of the most important issues on adaptive filtering for acoustic echo cancellation. In this report, we propose a new robust algorithm, the gradient-limited NLMS (GL-NLMS), which is derived by modifing the cost function for the NLMS based on M-estimates in robust statistics. The proposed method achieves greater robustness by nonlinearly limiting the gradient used in the NLMS, based on the difference in the distributions of the error-to-reference ratio during single-talk and double-talk., The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 18 Jun. 2004, Technical report of IEICE.

  • A study of adaptive algorithm for stereo signals with a power difference
    NAKAGAWA Akira; HANEDA Yoichi
    With broadband networks spreading, high-presence acoustic communication like stereophonic full-duplex communication is desired. Thus, a stereophonic acoustic echo canceller is required to avoid howling and echose when loudspeakers and microphones are used for hands- free communication. However, the performance of the acoustic echo canceller is degraded when there is a large power difference between stereo signals received from a remote site; that is the convergence speed of the coefficient error is low. In this paper, we propose normalizing the stereo received signals by the root of the squared summation in the adaptive algorithm of the stereophonic acoustic echo canceller in order to improve the convergence speed. The effectiveness of this is confirmed by computer simulation., The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 19 Oct. 2001, Technical report of IEICE.

  • DSP implementation and evaluation of a complex projection subband acoustic echo canceller that uses two different analysis filters
    NAKAGAWA Akira; HANEDA Yoichi
    TV会議などの拡声通話系では、通話の妨げとなるエコーやハウリングを消去するために、音響エコーキャンセラが用いられる。 筆者らは、エコーキャンセラの演算量の削減および、収束速度の向上を目的として、フィルタバンク設計などのサブバンド方式の研究や射影アルゴリズムなどの高速適応アルゴリズムの研究を行ってきている。また、高速射影アルゴリズムをサブバンド方式に適用することで、音声入力信号に対し、白色雑音信号とほぼ同様な収束速度が得られることを計算機シミュレーションで確認している。 本稿では、これらの検討結果に基づき、2つの異なる分析フィルタを用いた、複素射影サブバンドエコーキャンセラ(SBEC)をDSPで実現し、収束特性を評価したので報告する。, The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 13 Aug. 1997, Proceedings of the Society Conference of IEICE, 1997, 92-92, 110003341379, AN10489017

  • Whitening of the filter coefficient update-vector in the subband echo cancellers
    NAKAGAWA Akira; HANEDA Yoichi; MAKINO Shoji
    サブバンドエコーキャンセラ(SBEC)では、 間引き率を上げ分割数に近付けると、エリアジングの影響により定常消去量が劣下する。これを避けるために間引き率を下げると、適応フィルタヘの入力信号に帯域通過フィルタの特'性が影響し、収束速度が劣下する。筆者らはこの問題に対し、入力信号と反響信号に異なる特'性の分割フィルタを設定する方法を既に提案した。本報告では、適応フィルタ係数の更新部への入力信号が固定の周波数特性を持つことに注目し、これを固定係数の平坦化フィルタで平坦化することによって収束特性を改善する方法を提案する。, The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 18 Sep. 1996, Proceedings of the Society Conference of IEICE, 1996, 88-88, 110003336927, AN10489017

  • A study on prototype filter of subband echo canceller
    NAKAAGAWA Akira; HANEDA Yoichi; MAKINO Shoji
    サブバンドエコーキャンセラ(SBEC)は、音声の白色化効果による適応フィルタの収束速度向上、間引きによる演算量の低減が望める。その一方で、帯域分割/合成フィルタ処理による遅延や定常消去量の低下が問題となる。本報告では、図1に示すポリフェーズ型SBECの2つの帯域分割用プロトタイプフィルタA(z)、B(z)のフィルタ長および適応フィルタ長に着目し、収束特性の改善方法について検討した。, The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 05 Sep. 1995, Proceedings of the Society Conference of IEICE, 1995, 75-75, 110003342691, AN10489017

  • Duo filter control system for acoustic echo cancellers
    Haneda Yoichi; Makino Shoji; Tanaka Masashi; Shimauchi Suehiro; Kojima Junji
    音響エコーキャンセラを実環境で動作させるためには、(1)ダブルトーク検出を含め、適応動作制御を如何に行なうか。(2)適応フィルタが音響系を同定していない状態で如何にハウリングを抑えるか。の2点が特に重要となる。(1)のダブルトークの検出技術に関してはこれまで多くの研究がなされてきているが、特に優れた方式はなく、送話信号と受話信号のパワー比較などで行なわれている。また、(2)に関しては音声スイッチとの併用法が提案されているが、音響結合量を予測して最適な挿入損失量を与えないと、結果的に過大な挿入損失を与えてしまい、通話に切断感を与えてしまう。本報告では、ES射影アルゴリズムを用いたDuo Filter Control Systemを提案し、上記2つの問題を解決したので報告する。, The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, 1995, Proceedings of the IEICE General Conference, 350-350, 110003247971, AN10471452

    Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research, The University of Electro-Communications, Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), We have investigated the wearable loudspeaker array which has multiple loudspeaker units. It can control directivity pattern. In this study, we considered the circular, cylindrical, and linear loudspeaker arrays. When the loudspeaker units were placed on the circle with equal space, we can use the spatial Fourier transform. We can calculate filter coefficients for sound field or directivity control analytically. However, the performance of three dimensional directivity pattern made by two dimensional circular array had not been studied so far. Moreover, if the two cylindrical arrays are located closely, the multiple scattering occurs, but the performance of this situation also has not been investigated. Therefore, we investigated three dimensional directivity pattern with those conditions analytically. Furthermore, we studied the wearable loudspeaker with two linear loudspeaker arrays which indicates the independent sounds at both ears, and prevent the sound leakage around the uses., 16K00232

We proposed the fast and high accuracy measurement methods of multiple impulse responses and the source separation method based on the difference between the spatial spectrum information. Furthermore, we made a prototype system in which the user can walk through virtually in the restricted reproduced-sound-field., 15H02728
