Abstract

An adaptive differential microphone has been implemented by combining two omnidirectional elements to form back-to-back cardioid directional microphones. By combining the weighted subtraction of these two outputs, any first-order array can be realized. If certain simple constraints are placed on the combination weighting, the null location can be constrained to defined angular regions. Three algorithms that control the constrained adaptation are presented and discussed for the array: the LMS algorithm, Newton’s algorithm, and a time-varying least-squares Wiener filter. A real-time implementation utilizing an AT&T DSP32C digital signal processor is also described.
