Abstract

For the implementation of the crosstalk canceller, the filters with large length are needed, which is because that the length of the filters greatly depends on the length of the head-related impulse responses. In order to reduce the length of the crosstalk cancellation filters, many methods such as frequency warping, common acoustical pole and zero (CAPZ) modeling have been researched. In this paper, we propose a new method combining these two methods. To accomplish this, we design the filters using the CAPZ modeling on the warped domain, and then, we implement the filters using the poles and zeros de-warped to the linear domain. The proposed method provides improved channel separation performance through the frequency warping and significant reduction of the complexity through the CAPZ modeling. These are confirmed through various computer simulations.

음향 간섭제거기는 머리전달함수 (head-related impulse response; HRIR)의 길이에 큰 영향을 받게 되어, 일반적으로 큰 차수의 필터를 필요로 한다. 간섭제거필터의 길이를 줄이기 위한 방법으로 주파수 워핑, 공통 극점과 영점 (common acoustical pole and zero; CAPZ) 모델링 등의 방법들이 제안되었는데, 본 논문에서는 이 두 가지 방법을 결합한 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해, 주파수 워핑 영역에서 공통 극점과 영점 모델링을 통해 필터를 설계하며, 디워핑 과정을 통해 종래의 선형 영역에서 안정된 필터를 구현한다. 제안된 방법은 주파수 워핑을 통한 간섭제거 성능 향상과 공통 극점 모델링을 통한 필터 계수 감소를 함께 제공할 수 있다. 이러한 성능을 검증하기 위해 다양한 컴퓨터 모의 실험을 진행하였다.
