Definitions

  • Embodiments of the present invention relate to a loudspeaker system for a vehicle, in particular with a loudspeaker array, generally to loudspeaker arrays having a plurality of electroacoustic transducers in different arrangement configurations and to a loudspeaker loudspeaker array.
  • Future infotainment systems in vehicles and the associated speaker systems in vehicles must meet demanding tasks in complex traffic scenarios. For this purpose, an absolutely reliable function is assumed, whereby dangers in any driving situations for the driver, e.g. due to malfunction, must be excluded.
  • communication requirements and rapid information provision as well as undisturbed audio playback play an essential role. Not only vehicle noises are to be understood as disturbing signals, but also parallel consumption of different audio contents, such as the simultaneous telephoning and consuming of media content from the point of view of several passengers.
  • Such challenges require system properties that allow individual sonication to limited listening areas, so-called sound or auditory zones.
  • An example is the personalized sound (by means of sound zones) by using speakers in the immediate vicinity of the ears of the listener in the respective sound zone, eg by speaker integration in the corresponding head restraints of each car seat per listening zone.
  • Such a system with grouped loudspeakers is in the patent US 8,126,159 disclosed.
  • An advantage of this approach is the high acoustic separation from the adjacent sound zones, due to the large difference in hearing distance.
  • a disadvantage of this approach is the high interference sensitivity, eg due to head movements. This leads to a strong pear swings and significant impairment of spatial perception, eg loss of stereo images.
  • a second prior art approach relates to the personalized sound zones that may be generated using ultrasound technology.
  • Hörschall is modulated on ultrasound carriers and emitted highly focused on the hearing zones.
  • the basic requirement of this modulation principle is the emission of very high ultrasonic levels, e.g. greater than 130 dB.
  • the advantage of this approach is that the ultrasound due to the favorable ratios of wavelength to the size of the active "radiating surface", defined by the speaker size and the speaker array size, emitted more focused than frequencies of the audio frequency range.
  • a higher acoustic separation of the sound zones is possible with the same size of the speaker technology used.
  • Another state-of-the-art approach is based on so-called beamforming.
  • several speakers are used, for example, distributed in the vehicle and / or grouped into a speaker array.
  • the targeted control of each speaker a directed sound radiation, eg for individual sound zones, achieved.
  • the patent US 8,073,156 which discloses the use of line-shaped speaker arrays in a vehicle. This makes it possible to focus a sound pattern on one or more positions in the vehicle.
  • the patent document US 2012/0 121 113 discloses the use of another speaker array in a vehicle including a corresponding controller.
  • the advantage over the former approach lies in the more stable sound zone, even with head movement. Furthermore, no immediate proximity of the seating position to a speaker installation position is necessary.
  • a disadvantage is the achievable sound focusing, which often results in insufficient channel separation, in particular due to the realizable array dimensions, the achievable sound transducer distances (distance from adjacent electroacoustic transducers) and the number of transducers per array result.
  • the channel separation of previous beamforming approaches is reduced by the room-acoustic influences in the vehicle, reflections or room modes.
  • the patent discloses US 7,343,020 an automotive audio system with directional, planar transducers to create stereo or surround sound for each passenger individually.
  • the patent US 2003/0021433 discloses a speaker configuration together with a signal processor for stereo channel generation for all passengers individually by using a center speaker.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a concept for a loudspeaker system, in particular for a vehicle loudspeaker system, which avoids the disadvantages described above and thus enables high-quality surround sound generation with good channel separation.
  • An embodiment according to a first aspect includes a speaker system for a vehicle having a speaker array.
  • the loudspeaker array comprises a plurality of electroacoustic sound transducers which can be controlled individually so that a user-specific audio signal for different users at different listening positions in a vehicle interior of the vehicle can be displayed via the plurality of electroacoustic sound transducers.
  • the loudspeaker array or, in the case of inserted sound guides, a sound outlet of the loudspeaker array is in this case in particular between at least two of the listening positions in the vehicle interior, so for example between the driver and the passenger seat arranged.
  • the embodiments of the first aspect are therefore based on the recognition that a loudspeaker system for a vehicle, in particular with regard to channel separation, e.g. when reproducing different audio content at the different listening positions, it can be improved by arranging a loudspeaker array centrally in the sense of centered on all or the relevant listening positions.
  • the loudspeaker array used may have a separate sound lobe for each listening position (or each relevant listening position), e.g. For stereo, build up several separate sound lobes per zone. Due to the central arrangement of the loudspeaker array, e.g.
  • the loudspeaker array is approximately equidistant from each relevant listening position, so that each sound lobe has similar extension and, in particular, that the sound lobes are also oriented in opposite directions with regard to their direction the channel separation is optimal especially for user-specific audio playback.
  • a preferred positioning of the loudspeaker array would be according to the embodiments in the headliner of the vehicle, in the center console, in the dashboard or in the parcel shelf, according to further exemplary embodiments is particularly important that a distance between the array and the listening positions or at least the relevant listening positions (subset of all listening positions) essentially, ie So with a different +/- 30% is the same.
  • At least one additional loudspeaker such as the customarily existing loudspeaker in the door or the mirror triangle and / or a differently positioned additional loudspeaker, may be provided.
  • the additional speaker is designed as a structure-borne sound converter.
  • the additional loudspeaker is preferably arranged closer to the user than the loudspeaker array. By such a dense arrangement, it is possible that the radiated from the additional speaker sound is almost negligible with respect to the other listening positions, since it can be used here with much lower sound levels and large level difference due to large difference in the listening distance.
  • This additional loudspeaker makes it possible to produce stereo or mono with local level boost or frequency extension (eg bass) for each listening position.
  • Stereo can also be generated with the aid of the majority of electroacoustic transducers and the loudspeaker array based on the technique of acoustic beamforming.
  • at least two beams (sound lobes) or even a stereo beam are generated per listening position.
  • the sound sources to be generated are positioned virtually in space.
  • the beams are tracked taking into account the seat adjustment and the head position of the handset, so that regardless of the seating position results in a consistently good playback impression.
  • the loudspeaker system comprises a signal processor which, for example for beamforming, individually activates the electroacoustic sound transducer and / or the additional loudspeaker (s).
  • the mean distance between the first electroacoustic transducers is smaller compared to the mean distance between the second electroacoustic transducers.
  • the first electroacoustic sound transducers are arranged in a first area region, while the second electroacoustic sound transducers are arranged in a second area region.
  • the average density of the arrangement of the first electroacoustic transducers e.g., again the small electroacoustic transducers for the treble range
  • the average density of the second electroacoustic transducers e.g., large electroacoustic transducers for the low frequency range.
  • Embodiments of this second aspect is based on the finding that the arrangement of transducers of different types in an array need not necessarily be uniformly distributed, but that it may even be advantageous if smaller transducers, which are typically used for high frequency ranges a higher "packing density" are installed, as larger transducers for lower frequency ranges, since the possibility of high-focussed radiation in the higher frequency range, but also the location for high frequency ranges is better than in the low frequency range.
  • Such a sound transducer arrangement thus offers the advantage that both a broad frequency range and a possibility for accurate sound focussing can be achieved.
  • an arrangement described above can be effected either on a line by framing at least two of the first electroacoustic sound transducers through one of the second electroacoustic transducers per side or in the two-dimensional region in a trolley.
  • third electro-acoustic sound transducers are provided which fit in a similar arrangement in the array.
  • a similar arrangement means that the mean distance between adjacent sound transducers of the same type increases with increasing sound transducer size or that the average density decreases.
  • the speaker array according to this second aspect is suitable for serving as a speaker array in the speaker system according to the first aspect. This is particularly advantageous since the addressed array arrangement with the varying packing density offers the possibility of realizing arrays with a high and adjustable directional characteristic while at the same time having a small installation space, as is required, for example, in a central arrangement in the vehicle interior.
  • a further embodiment according to a third aspect provides a loudspeaker array having a plurality of electro-acoustic sound transducers which are coupled at their sound emission surface with sound guides for sound output or for sound control, wherein each sound guide comprises a sound outlet opening.
  • the plurality of sound outlet openings is arranged so that a mean distance between the sound outlet openings is smaller than a (possible) average distance between the juxtaposed electroacoustic transducers.
  • the embodiments of this third aspect is based on the finding that in loudspeaker arrays a compact distribution of the individual sound sources, in particular with regard to the selective sound focusing in the sound radiation is to be preferred.
  • a compact distribution even with large-scale arrays eg due to of large sound transducers
  • funnel-shaped sound guides which are each coupled to an electroacoustic transducer used.
  • the sound outlet openings of the sound guides are smaller than the sound inlet openings of the sound guides, so that the sound outlet openings can be arranged as a compact field.
  • the directional characteristic for an array coupled with a plurality of sound guides can be improved.
  • the loudspeaker array according to this third aspect can be combined well with the basic idea of the loudspeaker array of the second aspect. Furthermore, use of the sound guides in loudspeaker systems of the first aspect is also possible or advantageous.

  • the formation of these sound lobes 22a-22d takes place in that the sound transducers 20a-20h of the loudspeaker array 20 are controlled differently, for example taking into account so-called beamforming algorithms, which can also incorporate the radiation characteristic of the individual transducers 20a-20h and the room acoustics influences.
  • beamforming algorithms which can also incorporate the radiation characteristic of the individual transducers 20a-20h and the room acoustics influences.
  • the loudspeaker array 20 is designed to build up a separate sound lobe 22a-22d for each listening position 12a-12d. Due to the central arrangement, each sound lobe 22a-22d has opposite directions (from the center to the listening positions 12a) with respect to their orientation. 12d). In addition, (due to the central location) the speaker array 20 is approximately equidistant from each listening site 12a-12d so that each sound lobe 22a-22d has similar characteristics (e.g., amplitude and level). These two properties contribute significantly to the achieved channel separation between channels 22a-22d. An advantage of the beamforming beams 22a-22d is that the channel separation is so good that user-specific audio signals can be generated for the listening zones 12a-12c.
