Effects of sound source location and direction on acoustic parameters in Japanese churches

In 1965, the Catholic Church liturgy changed to allow priests to face the congregation. Whereas Church tradition, teaching, and participation have been much discussed with respect to priest orientation at Mass, the acoustical changes in this regard have not yet been examined scientifically. To discuss acoustic desired within churches, it is necessary to know the acoustical characteristics appropriate for each phase of the liturgy. In this study, acoustic measurements were taken at various source locations and directions using both old and new liturgies performed in Japanese churches. A directional loudspeaker was used as the source to provide vocal and organ acoustic fields, and impulse responses were measured. Various acoustical parameters such as reverberation time and early decay time were analyzed. The speech transmission index was higher for the new Catholic liturgy, suggesting that the change in liturgy has improved speech intelligibility. Moreover, the interaural cross-correlation coefficient and early lateral energy fraction were higher and lower, respectively, suggesting that the change in liturgy has made the apparent source width smaller.     

Binaural source location

It is shown how the coherence and phase spectra 0f signals from a closely spaced pair of microphones in the far-field can be used to compute the moments of a line distribution of arbitrarily correlated omni-directional sound radiators. This line source gives a far-field which is equivalent to that of model-scale and full-size turbojet engines in terms of measured power and cross-spectra 0f microphone signals. The necessary spectra can be computed rapidly on a small digital computer and the simplicity of the technique has meant that experiments could be performed in parallel with the usual far-field noise measurements. In this way, it has been possible t0 identify important properties of noise generation by turbojet engines at minimum cost and development and application of more sophisticated techniques has been accelerated. It is shown how the apparent properties of the source distribution may depend markedly on distance from the source to the microphones. Interpretation of results is guided by consideration of simple cases.     

Underwater tunable organ-pipe sound source

A highly efficient frequency-controlled sound source based on a tunable high-Q underwater acoustic resonator is described. The required spectrum width was achieved by transmitting a linear frequency-modulated signal and simultaneously tuning the resonance frequency, keeping the sound source in resonance at the instantaneous frequency of the signal transmitted. Such sound sources have applications in ocean-acoustic tomography and deep-penetration seismic tomography. Mathematical analysis and numerical simulation show the Helmholtz resonator's ability for instant resonant frequency switching and quick adjustment of its resonant frequency to the instantaneous frequency signal. The concept of a quick frequency adjustment filter is considered. The discussion includes the simplest lumped resonant source as well as the complicated distributed system of a tunable organ pipe. A numerical model of the tunable organ pipe is shown to have a form similar to a transmission line segment. This provides a general form for the principal results, which can be applied to tunable resonators of a different physical nature. The numerical simulation shows that the "state-switched" concept also works in the high-Q tunable organ pipe, and the speed of frequency sweeping in a high-Q tunable organ pipe is analyzed. The simulation results were applied to a projector design for ocean-acoustic tomography.     

The complex equivalent source method for sound propagation over an impedance plane

The sound field caused by a monopole source above an impedance plane can be calculated by using a superposition of equivalent point sources located along a line in the mirror space below the plane. Originally, such an approach for representing the half-space Green's function was described by Sommerfeld at the beginning of the last century, in order to treat half-space problems of heat conduction. However, the representation converges only for masslike impedances and cannot be used for the more important case of reflecting planes with springlike surface impedances. The singular part of the line integral can be transformed into a Hankel function, which shows that surface waves are contained in the whole solution. Unfortunately, this representation suffers from the lack of validity at certain receiver points and from restrictions on wave number and impedance range to ensure the necessary convergence. The main idea of the present method is to use also a superposition of equivalent point sources, but to allow that these sources can be located at complex source points. The corresponding form of the half-space Green's function is suitable for both masslike and springlike surface impedances, and can be used as a cornerstone for a boundary element method.     

The prediction of sound intensity from an explosive source

A method of predicting sound pressure levels from an explosive source has been developed by the author to assist in the control of artillery firing at Larkhill.Measurements have shown that, for a given charge weight and source to receiver distance, changing meteorological conditions can alter the observed sound intensities by over 30 dB.The method is valid for a wide range of weather conditions and will model observed sound foci including those upwind. The RMS error in the predictions is less than 6 dB for levels of 100 dB or more (peak linear).Application to other types of sound source and corrections for topography are under development.

Perception of the sound source position

This paper presents several experiments on sound source localization. They are based on monaural click presented at different interclick intervals (ICI), from 10 to 100 ms. Trains of clicks were presented to 10 healthy subjects. At short interclick intervals the clicks were perceived as a blur of clicks having a buzzy quality. Moreover, it was proven that the accurateness in the response improves with the increase of the length of ICI. The present results imply the usefulness of the interclick interval in estimating the perceptual accuracy. An important benefit of this task is that this enables a careful examination of the sound source perception threshold. This allows detecting, localizing and dividing with a high accuracy the sounds in the environment. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Material sound source localization through headphones

In the present paper a study of sound localization is carried out, considering two different sounds emitted from different hit materials (wood and bongo) as well as a Delta sound. The motivation of this research is to study how humans localize sounds coming from different materials, with the purpose of a future implementation of the acoustic sounds with better localization features in navigation aid systems or training audio-games suited for blind people. Wood and bongo sounds are recorded after hitting two objects made of these materials. Afterwards, they are analysed and processed. On the other hand, the Delta sound (click) is generated by using the Adobe Audition software, considering a frequency of 44.1 kHz. All sounds are analysed and convolved with previously measured non-individual Head-Related Transfer Functions both for an anechoic environment and for an environment with reverberation. The First Choice method is used in this experiment. Subjects are asked to localize the source position of the sound listened through the headphones, by using a graphic user interface. The analyses of the recorded data reveal that no significant differences are obtained either when considering the nature of the sounds (wood, bongo, Delta) or their environmental context (with or without reverberation). The localization accuracies for the anechoic sounds are: wood 90.19%, bongo 92.96% and Delta sound 89.59%, whereas for the sounds with reverberation the results are: wood 90.59%, bongo 92.63% and Delta sound 90.91%. According to these data, we can conclude that even when considering the reverberation effect, the localization accuracy does not significantly increase.
