Simultaneous Measurement of Impulse Response and Distortion with a Swept-Sine Technique
نویسنده
چکیده
A novel measurement technique of the transfer function of weakly not-linear, approximately time-invariant systems is presented. The method is implemented with low-cost instrumentation; it is based on an exponentially-swept sine signal. It is applicable to loudspeakers and other audio components, but also to room acoustics measurements. The paper presents theoretical description of the method and experimental verification in comparison with MLS.

Reduced-complexity modeling of high-order nonlinear audio systems using swept-sine and principal component analysis
Modeling high-order nonlinear systems is an important issue in audio signal processing. It may be employed in real-time emulation of analog nonlinear systems, such as guitar distortion and amplifiers or other vintage electronic audio systems. This paper proposes a new method for obtaining an economical black-box model of nonlinear systems using the swept-sine technique, which extracts the harmo...
متن کاملThe Comparison of Room Impulse Response Measuring Systems
This paper describes cross-correlation based systems for the estimation of the room impulse response. A various types of excitation signals are used: white noise, pink noise, swept-sine, MLS, and random phase multisine. Criteria to evaluate the quality of the impulse response estimation were: a) random and stationary noise rejection, b) rejection of nonlinearities introduced by measuring system...
متن کاملEstimating Room Impulse Responses from Recorded Balloon Pops
Balloon pops are convenient for probing the acoustics of a space, as they generate relatively uniform radiation patterns and consistent “N-wave” waveforms. However, the N-wave spectrum contains nulls which impart an undesired comb-filter-like quality when the recorded balloon pop is convolved with audio. Here, a method for converting recorded balloon pops into full audio bandwidth impulse respo...
متن کاملTonehole Radiation Directivity: A Comparison of Theory to Measurements
Measurements have been conducted in an anechoic chamber for comparison to current linear acoustic theory for radiation directivity from a cylindrical pipe with toneholes. Time-delay spectrometry using an exponentially swept sine signal was employed to determine impulse responses at points external to the experimental air column. This technique is effective in clearly isolating nonlinear artifac...
