Abstract
To realistically model the sound propagation in rooms, a detailed knowledge of the reflection properties of the surrounding surfaces is required. In this context, the reflection properties include both the sound absorption as well as scattering. In order to be able to measure the angle-dependent reflection properties of surfaces in-situ, a hemispherical microphone array was recently designed and built. For a reduction of the required hardware an efficient, rotationally symmetric sampling was chosen, so that 28 microphones on two concentric semicircles are employed to measure a total of over 3000 positions on a hemisphere in just over 15 minutes. This contribution will give an overview over the required signal processing steps to process the measurement data from such a microphone array. Special emphasis will be placed on the determination of the microphone positions and the special case of data available on a hemispherical surface. Also, the sound field model used to determine the impedance on the surface will be explained. Preliminary results will be presented.
