Title:
WAVE-SOURCE-DIRECTION ESTIMATION DEVICE, WAVE-SOURCE-DIRECTION ESTIMATION METHOD, AND PROGRAM STORAGE MEDIUM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/003342
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
To reduce erroneous estimation of a virtual-image sound source and highly accurately estimate the direction of a sound source, this wave-source-direction estimation device is made to comprise: a plurality of input units for acquiring, as input signals, electrical signals that have been converted from waves acquired by a plurality of sensors; a signal selection unit for selecting at least two pairs that are each a combination of at least two input signals from among the plurality of input signals; a relative delay time calculation unit for calculating, as relative delay times, the wave arrival time differences for each wave source searching direction between the at least two input signals composing each input signal pair; at least one per-frequency estimated-direction-information generation unit for using the input signal pairs and relative delay times to generate estimated wave source direction information for each frequency; and an integration unit for integrating the estimated direction information for each frequency generated by the per-frequency estimated-direction-information generation unit.
