Sound Visualization and Manipulation (Hardcover)

content<p><b><i>Unique in addressing two different problems – sound visualization and manipulation – in a unified way</i></b></p><p>Advances in signal processing technology are enabling ever more accurate visualization of existing sound fields and precisely defined sound field production. The idea of explaining both the problem of sound visualization and the problem of the manipulation of sound within one book supports this inter-related area of study.  With rapid development of array technologies, it is possible to do much in terms of visualization and manipulation, among other technologies involved with the spatial distribution of sound. This book aims to explore various basic functions for the visualization and manipulation and demonstrate to the reader how these properties determine the quality of visualization and manipulation. The first half of the book introduces some basic and general concepts and theories and the second part of the book explains a number of techniques in sound visualization and manipulation.  It offers a unified presentation to two very different topics - sound field visualization techniques based on microphone arrays, and techniques for generation of controlled sound fields using loudspeaker arrays. The authors emphasize the similarities between these two physical problems and between the mathematical methods used for solving them.</p><p>With extensive examples throughout the book, chapters include: Acoustic Wave Equation and its Basic Physical Measures, Acoustic Wave Equation and its Basic Physical Measures, Basic Theory of Sound Visualization, Acoustic Holography, Beamforming, Basic Theory of Sound Manipulation, Sound Focusing, and Sound Field Reproduction.</p><ul><li>The first book to combine both the visualization and manipulation of sound technologies in one comprehensive volume</li><li>Presents the basic concepts using simple one dimensional cases and then extends the concept to three dimensional cases, enabling easier understanding of the fundamental concepts through the use of minimum mathematics</li><li>Provides a solid understanding of associated physics as well as mathematical concepts for understanding the technologies, addressing diffraction problems in an integrated format by using Kirchhoff-Helmholtz integral equation</li><li>Uses extensive examples demonstrating the benefits and drawbacks of various applications, including beamforming and acoustic holography</li></ul><p>A valuable resource for<b><i> </i></b>post<b>/</b>graduate students, acoustic engineers, audio and noise control system developers<b><i></i></b></p>sourceProduct Description

本書以統一的方式解決聲音可視化和操作兩個不同的問題，這在這個相關領域的研究中是獨特的。隨著信號處理技術的不斷進步，對現有聲場的可視化和精確定義的聲場生成能力也越來越高。將聲音可視化和聲音操作的問題結合在一本書中，支持這個相互關聯的研究領域。隨著陣列技術的快速發展，可以在聲音的空間分佈等相關技術中進行大量的可視化和操作。本書旨在探索可視化和操作的各種基本功能，並向讀者展示這些特性如何決定可視化和操作的質量。書的前半部分介紹了一些基本的概念和理論，後半部分解釋了一些聲音可視化和操作的技術。它提供了一個統一的介紹，涵蓋了兩個非常不同的主題：基於麥克風陣列的聲場可視化技術和使用揚聲器陣列生成受控聲場的技術。作者強調了這兩個物理問題之間的相似性，以及用於解決它們的數學方法之間的相似性。本書通過大量的例子，包括聲束形成和聲學全息術，展示了各種應用的優點和缺點。本書是第一本將聲音可視化和操作技術結合在一個全面的卷中的書籍。它使用簡單的一維案例來介紹基本概念，然後擴展到三維案例，以便更容易理解基本概念，並且最小化數學的使用。它提供了對相關物理和數學概念的扎實理解，通過使用Kirchhoff-Helmholtz積分方程來整合解決繞射問題。本書還使用了大量的例子，展示了各種應用的利弊，包括聲束形成和聲學全息術。這是一本對研究生學生、聲學工程師、音頻和噪音控制系統開發人員非常有價值的資源。
