Abstract
A measurement system has been developed at Brigham Young University to assess high-resolution directivity data produced by human subjects. The system incorporates 2522 unique sampling positions over a sphere and has been used to acquire directivity data of several female and male talkers repeating phonetically balanced passages. Both polar and balloon plots of these data have been generated, along with similar plots corresponding to gender-specific averages and spherical-harmonic expansions. The results will be used for speech radiation studies and architectural acoustics simulations. This presentation reports the results and compares the directivity averages for both genders.
