Abstract
En 中文
Multiple source localization using time-differences of arrival (TDOAs ) is challenging because of the ambiguity involved in associating the TDOAs computed across microphone pairs to the sources. We show that the association ambiguity of the TDOAs can be effectively resolved using the concept of an inverse delay interval region (IDIR), which we introduce in this paper. By examining the association between a spatial domain and the TDOAs, we define IDIR as an interhyperboloidal spatial region corresponding to an interval of delays for a given pair of microphones. The proposed scheme for localizing multiple sources involves two stages. In the first stage, the given enclosure is partitioned into nonoverlapping elemental regions and the ones that contain a source are detected using a measure based on the generalized cross-correlation with phase transform and the IDIRs. In the second stage, the sources are finely localized within each of the detected elemental regions by identifying the IDIRs containing a single source and a novel region-constrained localization approach. We evaluate the performance of the proposed approach on real recordings from the AV16.3 corpus and in a simulated reverberation setting with a reverberation time RT60 of up to 500 ms, and show that the DOA estimation error with two active speakers is within 2 degrees and the spatial localization error is less than 30 cm for each speaker.
