Abstract
Spherical microphone array beamforming has been a popular research topic for recent years. Due to their isotropic beam in three dimensional spaces as well as a certain frequency range, the arrays are widely used in many applications such as sound field recording, acoustic beamforming, and noise source localisation. The body of a spherical array is usually considered perfectly rigid. A sound field captured by the sensors on spherical array can be decomposed into a series of spherical harmonics. In noise source localisation, the amplitude density of sound sources is estimated and illustrated by mean of colour maps. In this work, a rigid spherical array covered by fibrous materials is studied via numerical simulation and the performance of the spherical beamforming is discussed.
