The Theory of Maximally Flat Loudspeaker Systems

چکیده

A convenient mathematical formulation is given for the absolute lowfrequency response of an electrodynamic direct radiator loudspeaker mounted in a vented or unvented enclosure. The combined effects of speaker Q (ratio of reactance to resistance), enclosure size, and enclosure tuning are shown to control the convergence of the response curve towards ts asymptotic value. Mathematical criteria are presented graphically, which enable the designer to find enclosure characteristics that give a frequency response curve flat through fourth order in reciprocal frequency, for a given loudspeaker Q. In addition, it is shown that for Q=O.383 the system can he made flat through sixth order by choosing the correct enclosure size and vent tuning. This “triple point” design represents the flattest possible response for direct radiator systems.

This paper presents a novel flat loudspeaker with improved sound frequency response. Flat loudspeakers provide advantages of compact dimensions and high durability. Known flat loudspeaker technology is based on high modal density. However, the resonances in the panel are complex and difficult to control, which often leads to complicated computations and insufficient low frequency response. The ...

Optimal linear controllers and high computational non-linear controllers are normally applied to control the nonlinear systems. Flatness control method is a control technique for linear systems as well as nonlinear systems by static and dynamic feedback namely as endogenous dynamic feedback. This method takes into account the non-linear behavior of the process while preventing complicated compu...

Free Vibration Analysis of Variable Stiffness Composite Laminates with Flat and Folded Shapes

In this article, free vibration analysis of variable stiffness composite laminate (VSCL) plates with flat and folded shapes is studied. In order to consider the concept of variable stiffness, in each layer of these composite laminated plates, the curvilinear fibers are used instead of straight fibers. The analysis is based on a semi-analytical finite strip method which follows classical laminat...

Closed-form design of generalized maximally flat low-pass FIR filters using generating functions

In this paper, we propose a closed-form design of the generalized maximally flat low-pass FIR filters. By representing the transfer function as the Bernstein polynomial form, a siniple generating function of the weighting coefficients is derived. We show that the linear phase maximally flat FIR filters and the nonlinear phase maximally flat halfband FIR. filters are both special cases of the pr...
