Abstract
Multizone sound field reproduction attempts to recreate a desired sound field on the bright zone and reduce sound field energy on the dark zone. Conventional pressure-matching based multizone reproduction method is only able to control sound pressures at limited number of measurement points on the bright zones which are equal to target sound field recording points number. The reproduction performance is strongly affected by the number of recording points. In this paper, a reproduction method based on the sparse plane wave decomposition method is proposed to improve the reproduction performance when the target sound field is generated by one or a small number of sources. The recorded target sound field is decomposed into a group of plane waves. Loudspeaker weights are calculated as a summation precalculated corresponding plane waves weights. A simulation is conducted in a room to verify the performance of the proposed method. Compared with the conventional method, the proposed method achieves better sound field reproduction accuracy on the bright zone and similar acoustic contrast performance.
