Abstract

Broadband microphone array provides an important means of hands-free speech acquisition via spatial beamforming techniques. There are many different approaches for the design of near-field broadband beamformers. One method is based on the wave propagation model using a direct path transfer function. However, as signals are corrupted by different interfering noise, room reverberation plays a particular important role for indoor applications even if there is no another speaker around. Image-source method is one simple but effective approach for room acoustic simulation. It is also possible to employ a wave-based model for the simulation. In this paper, we will study different room simulators and employ them for the design of indoor beamformers.
