Sound Field Reconstruction in a room through Sparse Recovery and its application in Room Modal Equalization

The acoustics of a room often refer to the quality of the room in terms of sound recording as well as sound reproduction. At low frequencies, where the wavelengths are of the same order of magnitude with the dimensions of the room, due to the standing wave ...

Electrical Signal Modeling in Cochlear Implants. Study of Temperature and Humidity Effects

Maria-Alexandra Paun

The present paper discusses the climatic effects of humidity and temperature on cochlear implant functioning and the quality of the electrical sound signal. MATLAB Simulink simulations were prepared, offering insights into signal behavior under such climat ...

Low frequency sound field reconstruction in a non-rectangular room using a small number of microphones

Hervé Lissek, Vu Thach Pham

An accurate knowledge of the sound field distribution inside a room is required to identify and optimally locate corrective measures for room acoustics. However, the spatial recovery of the sound field would result in an impractically high number of microp ...

Development of a plasma electroacoustic actuator for active noise control applications

Ivo Furno, Hervé Lissek, Alan Howling, Pénélope Leyland, Stanislav Sergeev, Gennady Plyushchev

Conventional loudspeakers generate sound through the vibration of a diaphragm, attached to a rigid frame through elastic suspensions. Although such construction is satisfactory for sound diffusion in steady environments, it is likely to fail in harsh condi ...

Good Vibrations and Unknown Excitations

Dalia Salem Hassan Fahmy El Badawy

Inspired by the human ability to localize sounds, even with only one ear, as well as to recognize objects using active echolocation, we investigate the role of sound scattering and prior knowledge in regularizing ill-posed inverse problems in acoustics. In ...

Low Frequency Sound Field Reconstruction in Non-rectangular Room: A Numerical Validation

Hervé Lissek, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet, Vu Thach Pham

Characterization of sound fields in rooms has always been a challenging task. A faithful reconstruction of sound fields in rooms generally would require an impractically high number of microphones. At low frequencies, where sound field can be modeled as a ...

Pyramic: Full Stack Open Microphone Array Architecture And Dataset

René Beuchat, Robin Scheibler, Corentin Ferry

In this paper we introduce an open source and reproducible microphone array hardware design and an anechoic dataset recorded with this array. The Pyramic array has 48 microphones spread onto six identical modules connected to an FPGA-ARM combo. The arrange ...

Subjective evaluation of a spatialization feature for hearing aids by normal-hearing and hearing-impaired subjects

Hervé Lissek, Xavier Gigandet, Gilles André Courtois

Remote microphone systems significantly improve speech intelligibly performance offered by hearing aids. The voice of the speaker(s) is captured close to the mouth by a microphone, then wirelessly sent to the hearing aids. However, the sound is rendered in ...

Rake, Peel, Sketch : The Signal Processing Pipeline Revisited

Robin Scheibler

The prototypical signal processing pipeline can be divided into four blocks. Representation of the signal in a basis suitable for processing. Enhancement of the meaningful part of the signal and noise reduction. Estimation of important statistical properti ...

Design of Remote Quiet Zones Using Spot-Type Sound Reducers

Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet, Thomas Laurence

This paper presents a local control approach to generate remote quiet zones. To deal with situations where global control can hardly be achieved, it is proposed to use an arrangement of spot-type sound reducers as originally suggested by Olson and May. Ass ...
