AM 8:05 2aAAa1. A multi-channel audio system based on the theory of integral equations. Filippo M. Fazi and Philip A. Nelson ͑Inst. of Sound and Vib. Res., Univ. of Southampton, Highfield, S0171BJ, Southampton, U.K., [email protected]͒ The basics of a multi-channel audio system, which attempts the reproduction of a desired sound field, are presented. The system’s hardware consists of a three-dimensional array of loudspeakers, and can be used in combination with a specially designed microphone array. The mathematical fundamentals on which this technique is grounded consist of the formulation of the problems as an integral equation. The loudspeaker signals are determined from the knowledge of the target sound field on the boundary of a given control volume. The solution to this inverse problem is computed performing a singular value decomposition of the integral operator involved. For some simple array geometries it is possible to calculate an analytical solution to the problem. A regularization method is applied, as required by the ill-posed nature of the inverse problem under consideration. Some insight into the physical meaning of the ill- posedness is given and some analogies to near-field acoustic holography are suggested. The effectiveness of the method proposed has been verified experimentally and some of the experimental results are presented. Finally, it is shown how this technique has been suc- cessfully applied to the design of a multi-channel auralization system for room acoustics. 8:25 2aAAa2. Representation of the musical instruments directivity using dodecahedron loudspeakers. Gottfried Behler and Martin Pollow ͑Inst. of Tech. Acoust., RWTH Aachen Univ., 52056 Aachen, Germany, [email protected]͒ Room-acoustical measurements in general are performed with omnidirectional sound sources. With respect to auralization, such an impulse response may not be ideal since it does not represent the situation playing an instrument in the room. To achieve the directivity of a real source ͑such as an instrument or human voice͒ with a technical sound source ͑a loudspeaker͒ requires either to copy the body and the surface velocity distribution of that particular source or to reproduce the directional pattern of the radiation using a multiple source configuration like a dodecahedron loudspeaker array with independent excitation of each transducer. The advantage of the latter method is obvious since one single source is able to provide different directivities by changing the excitation profile. To maintain the appropriate excitation of each individual transducer, different approaches can be made. The method described here uses spherical har- monics decomposition of the target radiation pattern and a subsequent calculation of the frequency dependent excitation coefficients for each transducer. The advantage of this method is a flexible and fast calculation delivering filters that can be used either for real time convolution or off-line processing of the measuring signals. To measure the instruments directivity an array with 32 microphones is used. 8:45 2aAAa3. Considering modal aliasing in the implementation of an acoustic echo canceller in the wave domain. Martin Schneider and Walter Kellermann ͑Multimedia Commun.s and Signal Processing, Univ. Erlangen-Nuremberg, Cauerrstr 7, 91058 Erlangen, Ger- many, schneider,[email protected]͒ Traditional multichannel acoustic echo cancellation applied to wave field synthesis systems is computationally extremely expensive due to the large number of channels to be identified. By using wave domain adaptive filtering ͑WDAF͒ one is able to choose an ap- proximation which neglects the interaction ͑exchange of energy͒ between different modes. This reduces the number of necessary adap- tive filter coefficients drastically. Furthermore, it allows to use computationally relatively inexpensive single-channel filter adaptation algorithms. Then, however, modal aliasing due to the limited resolution of the used microphone array becomes a significant problem since it constitutes an interaction between different modes with respect to the microphone signals. The effects of modal aliasing on the adaptation behavior of a WDAF-based echo cancellation system are analyzed and a modified wave domain representation of the syn- thesized wave field is proposed which reflects the limited resolution of the microphone array. 2543 J.

Elko and Jens Meyer ͑mh acoustics LLC, 25A Summit Ave., Summit, NJ 07901͒ We describe the potential of using a spherical beamforming microphone array to investigate the spatial correlation of sound fields in rooms. We are building spherical microphone arrays consisting of many acoustic pressure sensors mounted appropriately on the surface of a rigid sphere. Our associated spherical eigenbeamformer decomposes the sound-field into spatially orthonormal spherical harmonics up to third-order. We refer to the signals from the eigenbeamformer as eigenbeams. All eigenbeams have phase centers at the physical center of the array. Due to the orthonormal property of the eigenbeamformer, a diffuse field ideally results in zero correlation between the eigenbeams. Therefore, by measuring the cross-correlation between the eigenbeam signals, one can investigate the prox- imity to the isotropy ͑or “diffuseness”͒ of the sound-field. Simultaneously, the underlying eigen-beam patterns can be steered without effecting the orthonormality property. How the cross-correlation function changes with general orientation of the eigenbeams is another potential measure for sound field diffuseness in rooms. We will show some real room measurements demonstrating the potential use- fulness of this approach. 9:25 2aAAa5. Imaging room acoustics with the audio camera. Adam O’Donovan, Ramani Duraiswami, Nail A. Gumerov, and Dmitry N. Zotkin ͑Perceptual Interfaces and Reality Lab., Dept. of Comput. Sci. Univ. of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742͒ Using a spherical microphone array and real time signal processing using a graphical processing unit ͑GPU͒, an audio camera has been developed. This device provides images of the intensity of the sound field arriving at a point from a specified direction to the spherical array. Real-time performance is achieved via use of GPUs. The intensity can be displayed integrated over the whole frequency band of the array, or in false color, with different frequency bands mapped to different color bands. The resulting audio camera may be combined with video cameras to achieve multimodal scene capture and analysis. A theory of registration of audio camera images with video camera images is developed, and joint analysis of audio and video images performed. An interesting application of the audio camera is the imaging of concert hall acoustics. The individual reflections that constitute the impulse response measured at a particular seat may be imaged, and their spatial origin determined. Other applications of the audio camera to people tracking, noise suppression, and camera pointing are also presented. ͓Work partially supported by NVIDIA and the VA.͔ 9:45 2aAAa6.

  • Nonlinear Ultrasound Spectroscopy for Chemical Quantification
    Nonlinear Ultrasound Spectroscopy for Chemical Quantification Jonathan R. Dion Department of Chemistry McGill University, Montreal Quebec, Canada August 2011 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy © Jonathan R. Dion, 2011 Abstract Analyte quantification is an area of great practical interest for biomedical and commercial applications. Measurement in highly scattering media such as tissue, blood, and other biological fluids is challenging using conventional spectroscopic methods. Likewise, measurement of compounds on-line or in opaque containers can be extremely challenging. This thesis presents general approaches for analyte quantification in liquids by the frequency analysis of ultrasound waves. Initially, this research focused on the quantification of analytes using dispersive hydrogel sensors. These sub-micron hydrogels vibrate at characteristic resonance frequencies when exposed to ultrasound. The resonance frequencies of the sensors could be modulated by generating molecularly imprinted pockets that would recognize and bind to molecules. Changes in the measured ultrasound frequency spectrum upon binding could then be detected. Using this approach, quantification of theophylline between 10 μM and 6.1 mM was shown. Improvements in analyte quantification using ultrasound were made by designing hydrogel sensors coupled to antibodies. The high affinity of antibodies for a specific antigen allowed the quantification of acetaminophen between 3.5 nM and 20.8 nM. The highly selective antibodies were also demonstrated to allow acetaminophen determination in a variety of biological media. Though the ultrasound frequency profiles change in the different media, frequencies used for multilinear determination of the analyte were ii clustered in certain regions of the spectrum.

  • Audio and Tactile Interfaces to Mobility Aids for the Blind
    Interfaces for multi-sensor systems for navigation for the blind Penny Probert, David Lee and Gordon Kao Robotics Research Group, Department of Engineering Science, University of Oxford, 19 Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3PJ, ENGLAND Tel: +44-1865-273926 Fax: +44-1865-273908 [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper describes work towards a multi-sensor system to assist blind people to move around an urban or indoor environment. The communication of navigation information is constrained by both the type of information imparted and, in many ways more crucially, by the type of information which real sensors can extract. In this paper we describe the use of ultrasound to provide two types of information: first the low level directional information which may be provided currently by a guide dog and then information on features to allow the blind person to locate and direct themselves within the environment. A directional system with a simple vibrator interface is described and its performance assessed by a group of users. Finally we discuss the possibility of feature extraction for navigation by recognition and give some results using frequency modulated sonar. Keywords: ultrasound, mobility aids, blindness, human interface 1. BACKGROUND AND STRUCTURE OF PAPER Vision is by far the most important sense for most people, and trends in virtual reality and computer interfaces reflect this emphasis. Sighted people appreciate detailed images and are able to abstract relevant data from images with ease, and the challenge in virtual reality is not in abstracting the data but providing enough detail at sufficient speed.

  • An Historical Survey of the Establishment of an Orchestral Tradition in Christchurch to 1939
    AN HISTORICAL SURVEY OF THE ESTABLISHMENT OF AN ORCHESTRAL TRADITION IN CHRISTCHURCH TO 1939 A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the University of Canterbury by Philip Jane University of Canterbury 2009 ii Abstract This dissertation is the first study devoted solely to the history of an orchestral tradition in Christchurch. Within a timeframe stretching from the beginning of the local settlement to the establishment of the first “national” orchestra in 1939, it provides detailed portrayals of all facets of amateur and professional orchestral activity. This includes the histories of all orchestral bodies, their membership, a chronology of concerts, repertoire, programme structure and critical reception. This dissertation explains the advance of orchestral tradition that is at times tentative and at times bold, until it is securely entrenched as a mainstream musical activity in Christchurch. A preliminary narration, which begins in 1857, ends in 1906 with the International Exhibition. This is then discussed as a landmark event for orchestral music in Christchurch. A series of case studies for the period of 1908 to 1939, covers each of the five major orchestral groups that flourished in this period. The case studies also include the footprints of development, the “incidental” music performed by the cinema orchestras, and the “studio only” performances of many broadcasting groups. The role played by minor orchestral groups as an “alternative” music culture is included, along with the impact of orchestras associated with visiting opera companies. The final section is a detailed analysis of the repertoire and programme construction, and a discussion of the people who played an influential role in the development of an orchestral tradition.
