Abstract
In this work, reconstruction techniques for the spatial interpolation and extrapolation of sound fields in urban environments are presented. Gaussian processes are generally used for sound field reconstruction from limitedly observations of isotropic acoustic fields. However, this model is often not applicable for the anisotropic urban environments including urban street canyons and enclosed spaces, when the complexity of the sound field is high in the mid-frequency regime, unless diffusely reflecting boundaries are assumed. Two different techniques are compared for reconstructing the sound field: the least-squared method and the Kirchhoff-Helmholtz integral equation method. Of particular interest is the reconstruction of the sound field with a minimal number of irregularly and arbitrarily distributed microphone measurements. Therefore, the techniques will not require knowledge of the microphone positions. A successive series approximation approach is presented to enhance the microscale prediction of the Kirchhoff-Helmholtz integral equation method. The sound field reconstruction results from limited urban environment observations for both methods are presented and discussed.
