Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of sound signal processing.
- the present invention relates more particularly to a method and an automated acoustic equalization system.
- a case of use of the present invention is as follows: in the automotive field: a plurality of microphones are placed in a vehicle and pre-calibrated sound sequences are broadcast in the vehicle speakers. A system compares the sound signals emitted and the sound signals received and recorded. We deduce the "acoustic signature" of the passenger compartment of the vehicle. The user then defines a target acoustic signature curve, which is different from the vehicle's native acoustic signature. A second algorithm calculates digital filter coefficients so that, when these filters are applied before sound signals are broadcast in the vehicle loudspeakers, the acoustic signature of the vehicle becomes the target sound signature curve, and not the native acoustic signature of the vehicle.
- IIR or Infinity Impulse Response filters are used in English terminology.
- the method and the system according to the present invention concern the equalization of the amplitude of the frequency response of the passenger compartment.
- digital audio filters are iteratively generated, and the digital audio filters are applied to the second digital data to generate third digital data for a compensated response curve. .
- the frequency, gain and bandwidth of the digital audio filters are automatically optimized until the compensated response curve is within the tolerance range or a predetermined limit of the number of digital audio filters has been reached. of the two taking place first.
- scientific publication “Filter Design Method for Loudspeaker Equalization Based on IIR Parametric Filters” by German Ramos and Jose J. Lopez. Presentation of the invention
- the present invention provides a method for providing equalization of a signal by determining filter parameters to reduce the difference between the amplitude of a frequency response representing the acoustic signature of a set of speakers in their environment and a target sound signature curve.
- the present invention relates, in its most general sense, to an automated acoustic equalization method, characterized in that it comprises the following steps:
- said method further comprising a step of optimizing the parameters of the filters to improve the performance of the system.
- the method according to the present invention makes it possible to obtain automated acoustic equalization thanks to a precise and optimized calculation of filter parameters.
- the interpolation step of the target sound signature curve is performed using the Hermite method.
- said method further comprises a step of automatically optimizing the offset of the target response C ec , repeated at each iteration.
- said method further comprises a step of smoothing the N frequency responses.
- said method implements filters corresponding to the following types: "peak”, “notch” “high-shelf” and “low-shelf” depending on the shape of local maxima and local minima.
- said method furthermore implements a global optimization algorithm to minimize the error.
- the present invention also relates to an automated acoustic equalization system, characterized in that it comprises means for:
- said method further comprising means for optimizing filter parameters to improve system performance.
- FIG. 2 represents the target sound signature curve C ec within the meaning of the present invention, the frequency responses derived from the N impulse response measurements, as well as the average M;
- FIG. 1 illustrates the different steps of the method according to the present invention.
- the automated acoustic equalization method according to the present invention comprises the following steps:
- RI N after issuing a precalibrated sound signal received by N microphones.
- a logarithmic frequency scale translation of said average M of the N frequency responses is performed.
- a target sound signature curve C ec is interpolated and then translated into a logarithmic frequency scale.
- the averaged response M and the target sound signature response C ec are compared by calculating the difference between the averaged response M and the target response C ec .
- Curve C of itt resulting from the difference between said averaged response M and C ec said target response is analyzed.
- filter parameters are determined for reducing the difference between said averaged response M and said target response C ec by firstly processing the local maxima in descending order according to their gain, then the local minima, and performing successive iterations.
- the method according to the present invention further comprises a step of optimizing the parameters of the filters in order to improve the performance of the system.
- Frequency responses can be averaged "standard” (that is, with identical weights), or with different weights.
- FIG. 2 represents the target sound signature curve C ec within the meaning of the present invention, the frequency responses derived from the N impulse response measurements, as well as the average M.
- a comparison of the averaged response M and the target response C ec by calculating the difference between the averaged response M and the target response C ec .
- Figure 3 illustrates the detection and ranking of local maxima ("peaks") and local minima ("troughs").
- the local maxima (peaks) are first processed in descending order according to their gain, then the local minima (troughs) are processed in ascending order. This makes it possible to determine filter parameters for reducing the difference between the averaged response M and the target response C ec . Successive iterations are performed. It has been shown in scientific studies that it is preferable to first equalize the peaks and then the troughs. Indeed, the human ear is more sensitive to peaks than hollows.
- optimizing the offset of the target curve is performed as follows:
- the target curve and the average frequency response are recalculated on a log scale to approximate the nonuniform resolution of the auditory system. This is achieved by a smoothing function that resamples the frequency response on a logarithmic scale with for example a frequency resolution of 1/48 octave.
- the "FreqRange” optimization frequency band is applied as a FreqWeight weight vector that is 0 outside the frequency band and 1 within the frequency band.
- the initial offset value "Offset" (in dB) is calculated as the average value of the average frequency response in the equalization frequency band:
- n are respectively the first and the last of the frequency points of the logarithmic equalization frequency band.
- Parameters and number of filters are optimized using an algorithm.
- the parameters f, Q and G (respectively central frequency, quality factor and gain of the biquads) are optimized from intervals of values that can be predefined by a user, and the ranges of values of Q and G may depend on frequency. Thus, for example in high frequencies, the low gain filters are more easily eliminated because they are not perceptible.
- the goal is to find the optimal parameters (fc op t, G t op, Qopt) of a filter and the optimum offset of the target curve Offset op t.
- the limits of the parameters are determined like this: J
- TargetGain- 100 ⁇ TargetGain opt ⁇ TargetGain + 100
- f c and G are respectively the center frequency and the gain of a biquad filter modeling the nth peak and QRange is the range of admissible values of the quality factor Q.
- a post-optimization process is performed. This postoptimization process consists of reclassifying the filters by increasing frequency and reoptimizing the coefficients. If a filter is canceled during this process, a new peak / dip is searched in order to output the maximum number of filters. The optimization process is implemented until the maximum number of filters is reached.
- the interpolation step of the target curve is performed using the Hermite method.
- the method according to the present invention further comprises a step of automatically optimizing the offset of the target response C ec , repeated at each iteration.
- the method according to the present invention further comprises a step of smoothing the N frequency responses.
- filters corresponding to the following types are used: "peak”, “notch” shelf “and” low-shelf “depending on the shape of local maxima (peaks) and local minima (troughs).
- the filter is made according to whether or not a certain threshold is exceeded by the quality factor.
- the method according to the present invention further implements a global optimization algorithm to minimize the error.
- the present invention also relates to an automated acoustic equalization system, comprising means for:
- said system further comprising means for optimizing filter parameters to improve system performance.
