Abstract

This paper presents B-CLEAN-SC, a variation of CLEAN-SC for broadband sources. In contrast to CLEAN-SC, which "deconvolves" the beamforming map for each frequency individually, B-CLEAN-SC processes frequency intervals. Instead of performing a deconvolution iteration at the location of the maximum level, B-CLEAN-SC performs it at the location of the over-frequency-averaged maximum to improve the location estimation. The method is validated and compared to standard CLEAN-SC on synthetic cases and real-world experiments for broad- and narrowband sources. It improves the source reconstruction at low and high frequencies and suppresses noise, while it only increases the need for memory and not computational effort.
