Beamforming system based on delay distribution model using high frequency phase difference

A beamforming system comprises an input module, a phase-difference module, a delay distribution module, and a delay estimation module configured to make a final delay estimation based on the delay distribution. The final delay estimation is applied to align one of two selected channels and combine t...

Zusammenfassung:A beamforming system comprises an input module, a phase-difference module, a delay distribution module, and a delay estimation module configured to make a final delay estimation based on the delay distribution. The final delay estimation is applied to align one of two selected channels and combine the two channels to obtain a signal of interest. The phase-difference module calculates phase differences for a range of frequency bins. The delay estimation module considers all possible delays derived from the phase differences, including multiples of ±2π to overcome the ambiguity in high frequency bins when the spacing between two acoustic sensors is longer than the half of the wavelengths.
