Abstract
Most newcomers to acoustic signal processing understand that linear time-invariant (LTI) filters can remove out-of-band noise from time series signals. What many acoustics researchers may not realize is that LTI models can be applied much more broadly, including to non-linear and time-variant systems. This presentation covers an overview of the autoregressive (AR), moving-average (MA), and autoregressive moving-average (ARMA) family of LTI models and their many useful applications in acoustics. Examples include analytic time-frequency processing of multi-component echolocation signals, fractional-delay filtering for acoustic time series simulations, broadband acoustic array beamforming, adaptive filtering for noise cancelation, and system identification for acoustic equalizers (i.e., flattening the frequency response of a source-receiver pair). This talk serves as a brief tutorial and inspiration for researchers who want to expand their use of signal processing, especially those in the fields of animal bioacoustics, aerial acoustics, and underwater acoustics.
