Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for sound reinforcement of an audience area with the features of claim 1, a method for determining delay times ⁇ i for operating sound transducers with the features of claim 16, a computer program product with the features of claim 30 and a device for sound reinforcement of at least one Public area with the features of claim 31.
- a typical application are so-called line arrays, which are arranged e.g. on the left and right above a stage front. Its curvature is tuned to the audience area so that the emitted wavefront in the elevation plane is aligned with the more distant audience areas. At this time, almost a cylindrical wave is generated around this part of the speaker assembly.
- the surface of a cylinder increases linearly with its radius, which is why the sound pressure decreases by 3 decibels for every doubling of distance.
- the greater curvature of the transducer surfaces requires a larger vertical opening angle.
- the wavefront is almost a sector of a sphere.
- the surface of a sphere that increases squarely with the radius causes a drop in sound pressure of 6 dB with every doubling of distance.
- the differences in sound pressure between the front and rear audience areas are significantly reduced due to the rapid sound pressure drop in the close-up range and the longer-reaching cylinder wave for the distant seats.
- the directional characteristic can only be adjusted in the elevation plane even with this improved radiation, the sound field remains only roughly tailored to the given audience area.
- the radiation is only given by the mechanical alignment of the loudspeaker group.
- the audience area can be adjusted by selecting speaker elements with a broader or narrower horizontal directional characteristic.
- Loudspeaker fields such as those available for audio reproduction based on the principle of wave field synthesis (as, for example, in WO2015036845A1), are significantly more flexible.
- each sound transducer is operated on a separate power amplifier.
- the superposition of the elementary waves of each individual sound transducer results in a wave front that reconstructs a spherical section of the wave front of a real sound source.
- the center of this spherical section is the virtual sound source of the wave field synthesis.
- the boundaries of the spherical section are determined by the size of the transducer field in conjunction with the position of the virtual sound source.
- the aim of the proposed solution is a method for irradiating an audience area with sound using a sound transducer arrangement, which brings about an improved adaptation of the radiation characteristics to the audience area.
- the proposed solution relates to a method for providing sound to at least one audience area using a sound transducer arrangement with a large number of sound transducers.
- Sound transducer arrangement radiate - in operation - from elementary waves that are superimposed to form a common wavefront. Whenever the radiation of elementary waves from the sound transducers is mentioned in the following, the acoustic center of the sound transducers is meant.
- the at least one sound transducer arrangement and the audience area are assigned to a common coordinate system, in particular a Cartesian coordinate system.
- the coordinate system on the side of the at least one sound transducer arrangement serves in particular to determine starting points for position vectors s i which, together with direction vectors r i , determine the emission of the sound from the at least one sound transducer arrangement.
- the coordinate system thus links the at least one sound transducer arrangement and the at least one audience area.
- the position vectors s i can be stored in the form of a list, for example.
- the method starts from an assignment of points of the coordinate system to points in at least one audience area and accordingly assigns a position vector r i .
- the position vector r i thus points to a specific location in the audience area 3.
- Positions of the individual transducers can be determined
- Direction vectors in particular normalized direction vectors determine the emission direction of the wavefront in the area of the respective
- delay times ⁇ j are now determined for the sound transducers, with which elementary acoustic waves are then radiated.
- the delay times ⁇ j of the sound transducers are selected in such a way that the local direction of the common wavefront corresponds to the direction of the directional vector, in particular the normalized directional vector.
- the sound transducers of the at least one sound transducer arrangement are thus each operated with a specific delay time ⁇ j .
- the delay time ⁇ j of a sound transducer determines the point in time at which an elementary wave is generated at the relevant sound transducer.
- the delay times ⁇ j of the individual sound transducers in relation to the input signal can be determined.
- each sound transducer will be assigned an individual delay time ⁇ j .
- the delay times of the individual sound transducers can fundamentally differ, although some sound transducers can also be operated with the same delay time ⁇ j .
- the totality of the delay times with which the individual sound transducers of the sound transducer arrangement are operated influences the shape of the common wave front, which is generated from the individual sound transducers composed of elementary waves.
- Delay times ⁇ j the shape of the common wavefront can be determined.
- complex-shaped wave fronts can be generated by specific choices of the delay times ⁇ j .
- the different delay times ⁇ j in the sound transducer arrangement result in a correspondingly shaped wave front, for example with different curvatures.
- the wavefront formed by the elementary waves is no longer a spherical section, as is generated by a virtual sound source with a two-dimensional wave field synthesis sound transducer arrangement.
- stronger curvatures and flatter curved areas result.
- the convex curvature of the wavefront is usually less in the direction of the more distant spectator seats, a greater curvature in the direction of the front spectator seats causes the sound pressure level to drop more quickly with distance and distributes the energy over a larger audience area.
- the delay times ⁇ j of the individual sound transducers can be determined in such a way that the common wave front adapts to the geometry of the audience area.
- the local directions of the wave front are controlled by the delay times ⁇ j .
- the same number of grid points (ie the coordinate system in the area of the sound transducer arrangement) of the sound transducer arrangement and thus also of sound transducers is assigned to the irregularly shaped wavefront that is created in this way for the same size of the audience area.
- such a wave front differs fundamentally from the spherical section of a point-shaped virtual sound source of wave field synthesis, in which the audience area supplied by the same number of sound transducers increases steadily with distance.
- the local direction of the common wavefront at a position on the wavefront describes the direction in which the common wavefront propagates at the respective position.
- the local direction of the common wavefront can be described in each case by the directional vector that is perpendicular to the respective point on the common wavefront.
- the directional vector describes a local propagation direction of the common wavefront when the wavefront moves perpendicular to the directional vector.
- Adaptation of the common wave front to the geometry of the at least one audience area is made possible by a determinable assignment which assigns a position in the audience area to the position vectors s i (which can be assigned to individual wave transducers, for example) corresponding to a position vector r i .
- the respective assignment results in normalized ones
- Direction vectors The delay times ⁇ j are then in each case like this chosen such that the local direction of the common wavefront at the position in the audience area described by the position vector r i corresponds to the direction of the directional vector.
- local propagation directions of the common wavefront given by the normalized direction vectors.
- the sound transducers of the at least one sound transducer arrangement can be arranged on or in one plane.
- the sound transducers of the sound transducer arrangement can be arranged on or in an at least partially curved surface.
- the arrangement can be grid-like, for example.
- the distances between the sound transducers can be uniform.
- the distances in a first direction, in particular in the vertical direction, and/or the distances in a second direction, in particular in the horizontal direction can correspond in each case or result in a regular sequence of distance sizes.
- the geometric shape in or on which the sound transducers are arranged can be complex.
- the transducers may lie on a flat surface, with other transducers of the same array of transducers lying on a curved surface. Different parts of the surface can also have different radii of curvature.
- the sound transducers of the at least one sound transducer arrangement are arranged in a three-dimensional area, in particular a room.
- the arrangement of the individual sound transducers can be determined starting from a reference surface, for example a plane or a curved surface, with at least a subset of the sound transducers of the at least one sound transducer arrangement being arranged on the reference surface and the positions of the remaining sound transducers of the at least one sound transducer arrangement can be determined by a spatial offset in the three-dimensional area.
- the operation of the sound transducer - which is assigned to the position vector s i - with a delay time ⁇ j can be carried out by activation using a computer system.
- the control can be influenced digitally with a delay time ⁇ j , or it can be brought about by a digital control.
- the delay times can be in the order of milliseconds.
- the time difference is usually only a few microseconds, so that the overall system requires a very stable system clock.
- the delay time with which a sound transducer is operated can be influenced mechanically or geometrically.
- the delay time of a sound transducer can be controlled by means of a spatial offset, in particular in the direction of emission of the sound transducer arrangement, relative to other sound transducers of the sound transducer arrangement.
- the audience area can at least partially have a planar or concave and/or at least partially convex shape.
- the audience area can be described as a continuous area or as a non-continuous area consisting of at least two contiguous parts.
- An example of an audience area made up of several areas is the large hall of the skillse, Berlin or an opera hall with several tiers.
- the audience area can also be represented by a set of coordinate points.
- the position vectors s i which are assigned to the sound transducers of the sound transducer arrangement, can result in a regular grid.
- the position vectors can result in a regular grid on the reference area R assigned to the audience area.
- the assignment which assigns a point in the audience area to each position vector s i in the sound transducer array according to the position vector r i , can be determined by means of connecting lines from the sound transducer arrangement to the audience area.
- the connecting line as a half straight line starting from the position vector s i , which intersects the audience area or the reference surface R assigned to the audience area.
- a position vector r i can then be assigned to the sound transducer, which results from the intersection of the half-line with the audience area or the reference surface R i assigned to the audience area.
- the levels with which the sound transducers of the at least one sound transducer arrangement are operated can be determined using a relative amplification factor, in particular based on the specification where n i is the normal to the reference surface S at the position vector s i describes.
- the transducers By operating the transducers according to their relative gains it is guaranteed that the sound pressure level at the receiver position r i is independent of the angle of the directional vector d i to the normal n i . This ensures a homogeneous volume in the audience area to be covered with sound.
- the proposed solution includes a method for determining delay times ⁇ j for a sound transducer arrangement with a large number of sound transducers j for generating elementary waves according to the delay times ⁇ j for sound irradiation of at least one audience area.
- the method comprises the steps of determining a coordinate system, by means of which the at least one sound transducer arrangement is approximately described as a reference area S and the audience area is approximately described as a reference area R; the determination of position vectors s on the reference surface S of the at least one sound transducer arrangement, from which the positions of the sound transducers of the at least one sound transducer arrangement can be determined; the determination of normalized direction vectors starting from the position vectors s, where the normalized direction vectors on the reference surface R of the audience area are directed and the determination of delay times ⁇ j for sound transducer j, so that the elementary waves of the sound transducers of the sound transducer arrangement are superimposed during operation according to the delay times ⁇ j to form a common wavefront, with the normalized directional vectors describe local propagation directions of the common wavefront.
- the common wavefront propagates essentially perpendicularly to the normalized directional vectors.
- the normalized direction vectors describe the propagation of the common wavefront.
- the common wavefront is normalized by a suitable choice of the directional vectors adaptable to the geometry of the public area.
- the relative amplification factors can be used to adjust the sound levels for at least a subset of the position vectors s according to the rule be determined, wwoobbeeii nn eeiinnee NNoorrmmaallee zzuu the reference surface S of the sound transducer arrangement at the point determined by the position vector s and the normalized direction vector based on the position vector s.
- the position vectors s can correspond to the positions of the transducers on the
- Sound transducer arrangement correspond in whole or in part, in any case there is a spatial assignment between the physical positions of the individual sound transducers in the at least one sound transducer arrangement and the position vectors s i for defining coordinates in the area of the at least one sound transducer arrangement.
- the number of position vectors s can the number of sound transducers
- Sound transducer arrangement correspond or be different from this.
- the number of position vectors s can be higher than the number of
- the position vectors s can describe crossing points of an auxiliary grid described on the reference surface S of the at least one sound transducer arrangement. However, position vectors s do not have to lie on all crossing points of the auxiliary grid.
- the auxiliary grid can describe a rectangular plane, for example.
- the number of grid lines in the horizontal and/or vertical direction can each correspond to a number of rows and/or columns of sound transducers in the sound transducer arrangement. However, the number of grid lines in the horizontal and/or vertical direction can also be greater than the number of rows and/or columns of sound transducers in the sound transducer arrangement.
- the method can also include a determination of position vectors r on the reference area R of the audience area, a position vector r being assigned to a position vector s in each case. The assignment can be made by means of a connecting line from the position vector s to the position vector r, on the basis of which the normalized direction vector can be determined. In particular, the direction vector can be used in each case by means of the calculation rule be determined.
- the entirety of the connecting lines is such that they do not cross or intersect in pairs. In particular, no connecting line intersects the other connecting lines.
- the assignment of the position vectors s to the position vectors r can take place automatically, in particular using a 3D CAD file of the public area. This can be done using a suitable mapping method. In particular, points and/or areas of the reference surface of the audience area can be left out during the assignment, for example those that correspond to areas of the audience area that should not be hit by the common wavefront.
- the position vectors r can be evenly distributed on the reference area R of the audience area. This allows them to correspond to evenly spaced points in the audience area. An even distribution of the points is ensured, for example, by the fact that every two adjacent points have the same distance from one another.
- the reference area R of the audience area can be described by an auxiliary grid.
- the position vectors r can at least partially correspond to crossing points of the auxiliary grid.
- the reference surface S of the sound transducer arrangement can be described by an auxiliary grid on which the position vectors s at least partially correspond to crossing points.
- Such an auxiliary grid is particularly important for the numerical treatment, since, for example, numerical integrations can easily be carried out using the trapezoidal rule.
- Auxiliary grids on the reference surface S of the at least one sound transducer arrangement and auxiliary grids on the reference surface R of the audience area can be converted into one another. In particular, they can have the same number of lines in the horizontal and/or vertical plane.
- the reference surface S of the at least one sound transducer arrangement can be a plane or, for example, an at least partially curved surface.
- a curvature of the reference surface S of the sound transducer arrangement in the horizontal direction can differ from a curvature in the vertical direction.
- the delay times ⁇ (u, v) can be determined by means of numerical integration of the discrete 2D vector field [ ⁇ u ⁇ ⁇ v ⁇ ].
- Vector field [ ⁇ u ⁇ ⁇ v ⁇ ] according to the rules respectively based on tangent vectors s u and s v of the reference surface S of the transducer array, the normalized directional vectors and the Speed of sound c can be determined.
- the vector field can then be integrated using a numerical integration method.
- the function ⁇ (u, v) obtained by means of the integration then describes the desired delay times.
- the values of the function ⁇ (u,v) describe the delay times at the position vectors s(u,v). For each individual combination of the parameters u and v, s(u, v) defines a separate position s i . Then the delays at the driver positions can be determined by spatial interpolation.
- the calculated time is then executed with the time of the closest sample given by the sampling frequency of the overall system.
- the desired delay times are described by a function ⁇ (u, v) whose gradient has the two-dimensional vector field [ ⁇ u ⁇ ⁇ v ⁇ ], the components ⁇ u ⁇ and ⁇ v ⁇ being given as above.
- a wavefront can be viewed as a kind of relief that assigns a height to each grid crossing point at that point.
- the gradient at that point is a vector pointing in the direction of greatest elevation gain. The magnitude of this vector indicates the greatest slope at that point.
- the speed of sound c can depend on the location, e.g. if there is a higher temperature in a higher area of the sound propagation range, which influences the speed of sound.
- the speed of sound can also depend on the location, which is then included in the calculation.
- the numerical integration method may include the Composite Trapezium method, the Simpson method, the Romberg method, or the more advanced inverse gradient method.

- WFS wave field synthesis
- the sound transducers of the sound transducer arrangement 11 generate elementary waves 8 which are superimposed to form a common wave front 4 .
- the common wave front 4 is created as if it were emanating from a virtual sound source 12 . Accordingly, the surface corresponds to that of the
- Rectangles 105 are divided, which represent the proportions of elementary waves 8 generated in approximately the same number of sound transducers of the sound transducer arrangement 1 in the common wave front 4 .
- the respective partial area 105 which is assigned to a given number of sound transducers of the sound transducer arrangement 1, is approximately the same size.
- the sound pressure is evenly distributed on the surface of the wave front 4 at the same point in time.
- the public areas 106 assigned to these subsections have very different sized areas over which the same energy of the assigned spherical wave section is distributed.
- the sound pressure levels in the various parts of spectator area 3 are correspondingly different.
- the virtual sound source 12 is located behind the sound transducer arrangement 1 in FIG. 1 .
- the position of the virtual sound source 12 determines both the curvature of the common wavefront 4 and the direction in which it propagates. If the virtual sound source 12 is arranged close to the sound transducer arrangement 1, the coverage area is wide and the curvature of the common wavefront 4 is strong. The surface of the common wavefront 4 grows correspondingly quickly with distance, and the sound pressure level therefore decreases quickly.
- the position of the virtual sound source 12 is therefore a compromise between a wide coverage area and an acceptable sound pressure drop in the back rows of the audience to be covered
- Audience area 3 As is also clear from FIG. 1, the same number of transducers of the transducer arrangement 1 supplies a portion of the audience area 3 to be covered with sound that increases significantly with distance, and the sound pressure drops accordingly here. In addition, it becomes clear that surfaces outside of the audience area 3 to which sound is to be applied are also unintentionally hit by the common wave front 4 in the entire service area 10 .
- the audience area 3 at the event location is in principle predetermined; in practice, its shape and size can hardly be adapted to the acoustic requirements for high-quality sound reinforcement. Only rarely is the area to be supplied a flat rectangle. Often the area is asymmetrical and rises more in the back areas to ensure a clear view of the stage.
- the position of the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1, which can work according to the principle of wave field synthesis, is also specified in principle because the sound source is to be localized in the area of the stage.
- FIG. 2 shows a sound transducer arrangement 1 with a large number of sound transducers.
- An audience area 3 is exposed to sound by means of the sound transducer arrangement 1 .
- the individual sound transducers 9 of the sound transducer arrangement 1 each emit elementary waves 8 which are superimposed to form a common wave front 4 .
- the sound converters 9 of the sound converter arrangement 1 are operated with individual delay times ⁇ j , ie the sound converters 9 emit elementary waves 8 at individual delay times.
- Sound transducer arrangement 1 with the individual delay times ⁇ j forms the common wavefront 4.
- the common wavefront 4 can be shaped by operating with individual delay times ⁇ j in such a way that it is adapted to the geometry of the audience area 3 .
- the sound transducer arrangement 1 and the audience area 3 are assigned to a common coordinate system 2 in which the positions of the individual sound transducers of the sound transducer arrangement 1 are determined by position vectors s i .
- the exact delay times of the individual sound transducers can be determined by interpolation from the calculated delay times of the surrounding crossing points of the auxiliary grid if the sound transducers are not arranged exactly at the point of origin of a position vector s i .
- the sound transducer assigned to these position vectors s i is driven with the individual delay time ⁇ j to emit elementary waves 8 .
- the individual delay times ⁇ j der differ
- Sound transducer 9 with each other, but they can also at least partially match.
- the delay times ⁇ j are determined by means of an assignment which assigns a crossing point of an auxiliary grid 6 in the public area 3 to each crossing point of the auxiliary grid 5 .
- this assignment assigns the Sound transducer 9 with position vector s i to a point in the audience area 3 corresponding to a position vector r i .
- the normalized direction vectors in the cuboid 60, starting from the position vectors s i are each through the
- the delay times ⁇ j of the sound transducer determined with the aid of the associated position vectors s i are then selected in each case such that the local direction 50 of the common wavefront 4 at the position vector r i corresponds to the direction of the normalized direction vector 61 in each case.
- Direction vectors 61 the shape of the common wavefront 4.
- local directions 50 of the common wavefront 4 can be determined by the directional vectors 7.
- the normalized direction vectors 61 are each perpendicular to the common wavefront 4.
- the common wave front 4 can be shaped in such a way that it adapts to the geometry of the audience area 3 by a suitable choice of assignment (see FIG. 6)—and thus of the normalized direction vectors 61 . This is done by assigning the grid points.
- the wave front 4 is then formed in such a way that approximately the same number of sound transducers of the sound transducer arrangement 1 is assigned to equally large partial areas 106 of the audience area 3 .
- the corresponding partial areas 105 of the wave front 4 then have a different size at the same point in time.
- the upper section in the sketch is still significantly smaller than the lower section.
- the sound pressure within the same wavefront is significantly higher in this area than in the lower part intended for the nearby spectator seats.
- Fig. 3 shows a reference surface 30 S, which the transducer assembly 1 in one
- Coordinate system 2 modeled.
- Coordinates for the individual sound transducers 9 of the sound transducer arrangement 1 in 3D space can be determined by means of the reference surface 30S, in particular by means of the auxiliary grid 5.
- a normal 202 n on the reference surface 101 S at s(u,v) is by definition a normal to the tangent plane spanned by the tangential vectors 201 s u and s v , given by the partial derivatives of s(u, v), where
- the sound transducers 9 of the sound transducer arrangement 1 themselves do not have to be mounted at the crossing points of the auxiliary grid 5; their respective delay and level are interpolated in three-dimensional space at the crossing points.
- the curvature of the reference surface 30 S and of the auxiliary grid 5 can be different in the azimuth plane than in the elevation plane; it is also possible to curve the auxiliary grid 5 in only one plane.
- the reference surface 30 S of the sound transducer arrangement 1 will usually be a flat surface and thus the auxiliary grid 5 will be a flat auxiliary grid. This corresponds to the case where the sound transducers 9 are mounted essentially in a two-dimensional arrangement.
- a flat surface is considered a special case of a curved surface.
- auxiliary grid 5 of a sound transducer arrangement 1 shows the assignment of the auxiliary grid 5 of a sound transducer arrangement 1 to an auxiliary grid 6 in the audience area 3.
- the approach presented here works not from the position of a virtual sound source (as shown in FIG. 1), but from the given geometry of the audience area 3 to be filled with sound and the geometry of the sound transducer arrangement 1.
- the audience area 3 to be filled with sound can be of any shape, flat, curved or also rising.
- 4 shows an irregularly shaped audience area 3 to be covered with sound, which in particular is not symmetrical and rises more steeply in the rear area on the right than on the left.
- a common wave front 4 can be generated, the shape of which is adapted to the geometry of the audience area 3 to be covered with sound.
- a coordinate system 2 is determined to solve the problem.
- the coordinate system 2 is assigned coordinate points distributed over the audience area 3 to be filled with sound.
- these coordinate points are arranged in the audience area 3 at the crossing points of an auxiliary grid 6, but they can also be distributed in the audience area 3 by other mapping methods.
- an auxiliary grid 5 is assigned to the coordinate system 2, by means of which the positions of the sound transducers 9 of the sound transducer arrangement 1 can be determined.
- the auxiliary grid is shown in FIG. 3 as a flat, regular auxiliary grid. In principle, however, the auxiliary grid can also be curved, i.e. have curved lines. In principle, the auxiliary grid 5 can be arranged on a reference surface, through which the sound transducer arrangement 1 is modeled.
- the number of coordinate points in the audience area 3 corresponds to the number of crossing points of the auxiliary grid 6.
- each crossing point of the auxiliary grid 5 can be assigned a coordinate point of the auxiliary grid 6 in the audience area 3.
- the distribution of the coordinate points should be about the entire audience area 3 with the most uniform possible distances between the individual coordinate points.
- a coordinate point with the position r(x,y,z) in the audience area 3 is assigned to each crossing point of the grid 5 .
- the connecting line 7 between the crossing points of the auxiliary grid 5 and its associated coordinate point in the audience area 3 then forms a vector in the coordinate system 2, which is the basis for calculating the runtime and level of the audio signal.
- the illustrated flat auxiliary grid 5 of the sound transducer arrangement 1 has the shape of a rectangle whose aspect ratio is the same as that of the planned sound transducer arrangement 1, for example in the form of a sound transducer array. It should have at least as many crossing points as there are sound transducers 9 in the sound transducer arrangement 1 . In principle, the aspect ratio is not defined, so that it would also be possible to set up a single line of sound transducers if this is appropriate for the given spatial situation in audience area 3.
- the distance between the grid lines of the auxiliary grid 5 can be horizontal and vertical
- Level may be different, but should at least correspond to the number of rows and columns of the two-dimensional transducer array 1.
- the acoustic transducers 9 of the acoustic transducer arrangement 1 can be mounted with their acoustic center in the crossing points of the auxiliary grid 5 . However, their position can also deviate from these crossing points, with their respective propagation times and levels being determined by interpolating the values calculated for the surrounding grid points.
- a higher number of grid lines improves the accuracy of the interpolation.
- a smaller number of raster lines means that the wavefront is not uniformly curved, but rather consists of planar sub-areas. The resulting diffraction effects lead to local irregularities in the frequency response.
- the auxiliary grid 6 laid over the audience area 3 completely encloses it.
- the form of the auxiliary grid 6 is adapted to the public area 3 . In principle, this can be done manually. In practice, however, several hundred to several thousand raster points are necessary so that the distance between the sound transducers 9 is sufficiently small to achieve reproduction that is largely free of audible aliasing effects.
- the small number of grid lines in the sketches is used to explain the functional principle for clarity.
- a visualization in a 3D CAD file makes it easier to switch off unoccupied audience areas 3.
- the calculations remain basically unchanged, only the sound transducers that are assigned to unoccupied audience areas 3 are not supplied with a signal. This results in a lower diffuse field sound level at the venue, which contributes to better speech intelligibility in the occupied audience areas 3 .
- FIG. 5 illustrates by way of example how the local curvature 50 of the wave front 4, which does not have to be a spherical section according to the method described, arises from the superposition of the elementary waves 8 of the surrounding sound transducers 9.
- the acoustic Centers of the sound transducers 9 are mounted on the crossing points of the auxiliary grid in the example for simplification.
- the individual sound transducer 9 shown in black in the sketch has non-directional half-space radiation. Accordingly, the elementary wave 8 generated by it alone cannot form a directional vector.
- the local directional vector d of the wave front assigned to it only arises at some distance from the sound transducer arrangement 1 through superposition of the elementary waves 8 of the surrounding sound transducers.
- the point described by the vector r lies on a crossing point of the auxiliary grid 6 of the audience area 3.
- the direction vector 7 d can also be determined without the aid of the auxiliary grid 5 and 6 .
- the direction vector 7 d is based on a position vector s on a reference surface 30 S, which models the sound transducer arrangement 1, and points to a position vector r in the audience area 3, or to a position vector r, which is a point on an audience area 3 modeling Reference surface R 30 describes.
- a method is described below for deriving delay times and levels for the individual sound transducers 9 from given direction vectors 7 so that the superposition of their elementary waves 8 is superimposed to form a wave front that is consistently aligned with the given audience area 3 .
- the direction vector 7d selected as an example from Fig. 4 is set to the length of the normalized direction vector 61 attributed to the as is defined.
- the desired wavefront generated by the acoustic transducer arrangement 1 in particular in the form of a curved or planar array, can be locally approximated by a planar wave propagating along (ie locally in the direction of) the normalized directional vector 61 .
- Any local plane wave can enter the desired direction by operating the sound transducers 9 of the sound transducer arrangement 1 according to the corresponding delay times of the signal.
- the delay time ⁇ j at each position s(u,v) on the reference surface 30 S of the sound transducer arrangement 1 is described by the scalar delay function ⁇ (u,v).
- the deceleration gradient can be determined in the following way:
- the scalars can be represented physically as the local differentials of the path lengths between the plane wave and the tangential plane of the transducer array 1 can be interpreted.
- the relative gain for each position in the baffle assembly 1 is given by the scalar product of normalized direction vector 61 and normal n according to the equation where the normal n is defined as in equation (2).
- Operating the sound transducers 9 according to the relative amplification factors ensures that the sound pressure level at the receiver position r is independent of the angle of the directional vector d to the normal n.
- FIG. 7 shows that the audience area 3 to be covered with sound can also be divided into individual partial areas 701, 702, 703 with different signal content.
- Acoustic transducer arrangement 1 are allocated. However, a clearly targeted sound reinforcement results when the high directivity of the entire arrangement is used to align the signal content to the desired audience areas 3 .
- the number of crossing points 6 then corresponds to the number of crossing points 5 of the auxiliary grid of the sound transducer arrangement 1 .
- the division into sub-areas does not make sense if the sub-areas are not sufficiently separated spatially. With a coherent signal content, comb filter effects would then arise at the range boundaries.
- Individual sub-areas can also be smaller than the associated sound transducer 9 area, provided that the crossing points of the auxiliary grid in the audience area 3 are closer together than in the auxiliary grid of the sound transducer arrangement 1. In this case, concave wave fronts arise, the sound pressure level of which is higher in the audience area 3 than at the generating one radiator surface itself.
- Wavefront as in a two-dimensional transducer array 1 after Principle of wave field synthesis with a virtual sound source at this point arises.
- Audience area 3 it is also possible to compensate for the sound pressure drop at higher frequencies by airborne sound insulation.
- the frequency-dependent attenuation values of the air per meter are known exactly.
- a corresponding inverse equalization curve can then be assigned to each sound transducer 9 because the distance to the associated audience seat (given by the length of the directional vector d in FIG. 5) is known.
- the sound pressure drop at the upper limit of the audio range can rise well above ten dB in dry air.
- this frequency range has to be driven much higher in a flat sound transducer arrangement 1 because the gain in level due to the improved adjustment of the synchronously working loudspeaker group only takes effect at longer wavelengths.
- the additional compensation of the airborne sound insulation for the distant audience areas 3 can therefore push the system to the limit of its controllability at high signal levels in the upper audio frequency range.
- a solution to this problem is to arrange the coordinate points r with the distance to the sound transducer arrangement 1 closer to one another.
- a smaller partial area 106 is then assigned to the far away audience areas 3 of the same number of sound transducers 9 .
- Each halving of the area causes a level increase of 3 dB, by which the activation of the associated sound transducer 9 would have to be reduced so that the sound pressure level in the entire audience area 3 remains almost the same.
- the correspondingly reduced drive signal is associated with greater headroom in the associated amplifiers. This can then be used to equalize the control signals more.
- the localization of the sound source differs fundamentally from the localization of a virtual point sound source of wave field synthesis.
- Virtual sound sources are used in wave field synthesis basically independent of the position of the listener in the coverage area, comparable to a real sound source, localized at its virtual starting point.
- the wavefront tailored to audience area 3 does not emanate from defined positions of virtual sound sources. It arises, as it were, from an extended source of many different starting points in the area behind the transducer surface.
- the viewer in the front left seat in Fig. 2 will associate the starting point of the wavefront in the lower left corner of the transducer array 1, for the viewer on the right rear the sound comes from the upper right corner of the transducer array 1. This is for playback without optical Reference to the sound source is not a disadvantage, but spatial reproduction is only possible to a limited extent, as shown in FIG.
- the method can be assigned to the field of wave field synthesis, because it is possible to generate any shape of the wave front from the theoretical derivation of wave field synthesis from the Kirchhoff-Helmholtz integral (Jens Ahrens: The Single-layer Potential Approach Applied to Sound Field Synthesis Including Cases of Non-enclosing Distributions of Secondary Sources, Dissertation, Technische (2015) Berlin, 2010).
- the sound converters 9 of the sound converter arrangement 1 are arranged in a regular grid. In practice, however, the distribution of the sound transducers 9 can also be irregular.
- the propagation times ⁇ are calculated for a sufficiently dense regular grid, after which the propagation times for the irregularly placed sound transducers are interpolated.
- FIG. 8 shows an audience area 3 of complex design with sub-areas 802 and illustrates a fitting of the sound transducer arrangement 1 with sound transducers 9, the fitting being adapted to the complex design of the audience area 3.
- FIG. 8 shows an audience area 3 of complex design with sub-areas 802 and illustrates a fitting of the sound transducer arrangement 1 with sound transducers 9, the fitting being adapted to the complex design of the audience area 3.
- the points on the sound transducer arrangement 1 and points in the audience area 3 are assigned by means of an assignment of crossing points of the auxiliary grid 5 of the sound transducer arrangement 1 to crossing points of the auxiliary grid 6 of the audience area 3.
- crossing points of the auxiliary grid 5 are associated with sound transducers 9 of the sound transducer arrangement 1, in other words, crossing points of the auxiliary grid 5 remain unequipped. In particular, there are unpopulated crossing points between populated crossing points.
- the shape of the sound transducer arrangement 1 can thus be adapted to the complex design and/or the geometry of the public area 3 in fixed installations. This enables more effective use of the sound transducers.
- the auxiliary grid 6 in the audience area 3 can be a rectangle, for example, and in particular it can go beyond the audience area.
- Irregular shapes of the auxiliary grid 6 can lead to incorrect results in the calculations according to the method described.
- the bass-midrange sound transducers used are also aligned.
- the calculation of their propagation times and levels is based on the nearby grid points.
- the time difference in the event of a depth offset must be compensated for.
- the phasing of subwoofers can also be effectively adjusted in this way. According to the method, the shortest of all calculated travel times to the individual sound transducers is taken from all calculated ones
- Transit times are subtracted, so that the front of the wave front adapted to the audience area 3 is always generated immediately.
- a further embodiment of the solution relates to a device which is shaped in accordance with the rules of the method described. With it, a single wavefront, the shape of which is adapted to the given listening area, can be played without Electronic time shift of the signal can be generated from a mono signal.
- This mechanical solution can be advantageous for fixed installations in acoustically problematic environments. In this way, a sound reinforcement system can be installed with justifiable effort, which ensures a high proportion of direct sound with correspondingly good speech intelligibility even under unfavorable acoustic conditions.
- a mechanically curved sound transducer arrangement 1 is illustrated by way of example in FIG. 9 .
- the audience area 3 to be covered with sound which is described with reference to FIG. 4, can be supplied with a tailored common wave front 4.
- the operation of the sound converters 9 of the sound converter arrangement 1 is implemented mechanically according to the delay times ⁇ j obtained using the method described. All sound transducers are supplied with a coherent signal, i.e. from a mono signal source.
- the mechanical implementation is achieved by suitable positioning of the sound transducers 9 on the mechanically curved sound transducer arrangement 90, in particular by a suitable spatial offset, in particular an offset in the direction of propagation of the common wave front, of the sound transducers 9 relative to one another.
- a distance S d is plotted, starting from the associated grid point of a flat auxiliary grid 5 along the extended diagonal of the cuboid 40 determined for the unit vector 61 .
- the new coordinates for the acoustic center of the relevant sound transducer 9 and also its orientation can be determined in the right-angled triangles of the cuboid 40 .
- the delay times for the individual sound transducers 9 calculated according to the methods described result from the mechanical offset of the acoustic centers of the respective sound transducers 9 along the diagonal Sd of the respective cuboid.
- the different signal levels for the individual sound transducers 9 of this two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1 can then be approximately realized on a common output amplifier by suitable parallel and series connection of the sound transducers 9 or by connecting to different amplifiers, which are each assigned sound transducers 9 with approximately the same level values will.
- the sound transducers 9 do not have any significant breaks in their spatial radiation characteristics, they do not have to be aligned in the direction of the diagonals of the cuboid.
- the method can then also be implemented by a device for the transverse displacement of sound transducers, as is described in WO 2015/004526/A2.
- the shift s y of the acoustic center from the grid point of the original sound transducer grid then results from the quotient
- Spatial acoustic irradiation of the audience area 3 cannot be generated with a single mechanical device. It is suitable for ensuring, with manageable effort, a sound system in which the distribution of the sound pressure level in the entire audience area 3 is very even and which ensures high speech intelligibility even in acoustically unfavorable rooms.
- the shape of the acoustic common wave front 4, which is composed by superposition of elementary waves 8 of the sound transducers 9, can be determined by the given geometry of the audience area 3 and the sound transducer arrangement 1 in such a way that in a common coordinate system 2 a coordinate point in the audience area 3 is assigned to each crossing point of a regular, at least partially flat and/or curved grid that is assigned to the sound transducers, whereby a vector results from their connecting line, from which the delay time for the respectively assigned sound transducer is determined by mathematical linking 9 can be calculated, giving the local curvature of the Wave front, which is created by superposition of the elementary waves 8 of the surrounding sound transducers 9, progresses in the direction of this vector, so that a closed wave front is created that can reach the entire audience area 3 and in which a level correction for each sound transducer 9 from its assigned vector is also possible , which improves the homogeneity of the sound pressure over the entire audience area 3.
- the coordinate points in the plane of the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1 are, for example, crossing points of a flat or curved grid to which coordinate points in the audience area 3 are assigned in a common coordinate system 2, with the connecting lines between the respectively assigned grid points and points in the audience area 3 do not cross or intersect.
- the number of grid lines in the plane of the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1 in the horizontal and vertical directions corresponds to the number of sound transducers installed in the rows and columns of the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1 .
- the number of grid lines can be greater than the number of sound transducers 9 in the rows and columns of the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1, with the acoustic center of the individual sound transducers 9 being able to be arranged at the crossing point of the grid lines.
- the values for the delay time and/or level can be determined, for example, by interpolating the values of the surrounding grid points, so that the reference points in the audience area 3 can be adjusted in all three spatial dimensions to the requirements of the geometry of the audience area 3, making sure that the Areas between the individual grid points remain approximately the same size over the entire audience area 3, resulting in a relatively even distribution of the sound pressure level over the entire audience area 3.
- the vectors resulting from the difference in the coordinates of the grid point assigned to the respective sound transducer 9 in the plane of the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1 to the respective position of the assigned coordinate point in the audience area 3 Components of the unit vector returned to create a mathematical basis for determining the time differences between adjacent sound transducers.
- the influence of the angle that the synthesized wavefront assumes at a given grid point to the plane of the sound transducer arrangement 1 on the signal level perceived at the associated point in the audience area 3 is compensated for by the level of the dem each point associated sound transducer is compensated with the cosine function of the angle in question, the value of this cosine function the value of the component of the unit vector.
- auxiliary grids in the audience area each with the same number of points as the grid in the plane of the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1, can also be assigned to the crossing points of the flat or curved grid in the plane of the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1, whereby partial areas within the audience area for example, can be supplied simultaneously with different signal content.
- the reference points in the audience area 3 can be distributed more narrowly as the distance from the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1 increases, for example with the intention of making the areas between the reference points smaller as the distance from the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1 increases, so that the associated sound transducers 9 of the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1 can be controlled at a lower level in the respective area with the same sound pressure level, which means that more headroom is available to compensate for the drop in height caused by the airborne sound insulation in these areas.
- the influence of the airborne sound insulation on the signal at the audience seat for the individual sound transducers 9 can be compensated for by inverse equalization of the influence of the airborne sound insulation at a given humidity according to the distance
- individual public areas 3 can be excluded from the supply, for example temporarily. For example, if they are not manned at an event, which improves the proportion of direct sound in the rest of the audience area 3.
- the transit times with which the individual sound transducers 9 of the two-dimensional sound transducer arrangement 1 radiate according to one of the method variants described above are not due to electronic delay of the signal content, but due to the mechanical positioning of the sound transducers, which are associated with coherent signals are controlled, realized, the signal level for the respective sound transducer 9 corresponding to the values determined for the original crossing points of the grid.
