Abstract

Accurate localization of multiple sound sources is indispensable for the microphone array-based high quality sound capture. For single sound source localization, the CSP (cross-power spectrum phase analysis) method has been proposed. The CSP method localizes a sound source as a crossing point of sound directions estimated using different microphone pairs. However, when localizing multiple sound sources, the CSP method has a problem that the localization accuracy is degraded due to cross-correlation among different sound sources. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a new method which suppresses the undesired cross-correlation by synchronous addition of CSP coefficients derived from multiple microphone pairs. Experiment results in a real room showed that the proposed method improves the localization accuracy when increasing the number of the synchronous addition.
