Blindly estimating the direction of arrival (DoA) of early room reflections without prior knowledge of the room impulse response or source signal is highly valuable in audio signal processing applications. The FF-PHALCOR (Frequency Focusing…
Absorbing airborne noise at frequencies below 300 Hz is a particularly vexing problem due to the absence of natural sound absorbing materials at these frequencies. The prevailing solution for low-frequency sound absorption is the use of…
