In view of the defects of the current method for realizing directional adjustment or direction-changing directional broadcasting by adopting the directional broadcasting of the sound wave modulation ultrasonic wave, the embodiment of the application provides an adjustable sound wave loudspeaker system which can easily realize the directional adjustment or direction-changing directional broadcasting of the sound wave. The principle of the tunable acoustic speaker system shown in fig. 1 will be described below. The tunable acoustic speaker system includes: the device comprises a band-pass filter, a multipath frequency division unit, N multipath delay phase shifting units and a loudspeaker array.
The band-pass filter is connected with the multipath frequency division unit and is used for filtering out signals with frequency bands below a first value and above a second value in the input signals to obtain audible sound signals with the frequency bands between the first value and the second value. Since the audio directivity below 200Hz is almost uncontrollable and there is no general requirement for the broadcast sound effect to restore the sound below 200Hz and above 13000Hz, as an implementation, the first value is 200Hz and the second value is 13000Hz, i.e. the band-pass filter is used to filter out the signals with frequency bands below 200Hz and above 13000Hz in the input signal, so as to obtain the audible sound signals with frequency bands between 200Hz and 13000 Hz. It will of course be appreciated that the first value is not limited to 200Hz, but may be other values, such as 190Hz, 210Hz, etc.; similarly, the second value is not limited to 13000Hz, but may be other values such as 12800Hz, 12900Hz, etc., and thus the specific value thereof is not to be construed as limiting the present application.
The input end of the multi-path frequency dividing unit is connected with the band-pass filter, the output end of the multi-path frequency dividing unit is connected with the N multi-path delay phase shifting units, and the multi-path frequency dividing unit is used for dividing the audible sound signals selected by the band-pass filter according to the designated frequency band to obtain N paths of frequency division sub-signals with different frequency bands and continuous frequency bands, wherein N is an integer greater than 1. As an embodiment, the multi-path frequency dividing unit may divide the audible sound signal by octaves, for example, divide the audible sound signal of 200-13000 Hz by octaves into 6-path frequency divided signals of 200-400 Hz, 400-800 Hz, 800-1600 Hz, 1600-3200 Hz, 3200-6400 Hz and 6400-13000 Hz. Of course, it should be noted that the multipath frequency dividing unit may divide the audible sound signal according to other frequency bands instead of the octave, for example, divide the audible sound signal according to one half of the octave, and at this time, divide the audible sound signal into
And/>Is divided by 12 paths of the sub-signals. Of course, the audible sound signal may also be divided by one third octave, one sixth octave, and one twelfth octave. For example, an audible sound signal of 200-13000 Hz is divided into 18 paths of divided sub-signals according to one third octave; dividing the audible sound signal of 200-13000 Hz into 36 paths of frequency division signals according to one sixth of octaves; the audible sound signal of 200-13000 Hz is divided into 72 paths of frequency division signals according to twelve times of octaves.
Each of the N multipath delay phase shift units is connected to the multipath crossover unit and also to a corresponding speaker unit in the speaker array. Each multipath delay phase shifting unit corresponds to one path of frequency division sub-signal, taking the above-mentioned 6 paths of frequency division sub-signals of 200-400 Hz, 400-800 Hz, 800-1600 Hz, 1600-3200 Hz, 3200-6400 Hz and 6400-13000 Hz as an example, then at this time, there are corresponding 6 multipath delay phase shifting units, each multipath delay phase shifting unit corresponds to one path of frequency division sub-signal, for example, multipath delay phase shifting unit 1 corresponds to the frequency division sub-signal of the frequency band of 200-400 Hz, multipath delay phase shifting unit 2 corresponds to the frequency division sub-signal of the frequency band of 400-800 Hz, multipath delay phase shifting unit 3 corresponds to the frequency division sub-signal of the frequency band of 800-1600 Hz, multipath delay phase shifting unit 4 corresponds to the frequency division sub-signal of the frequency band of 1600-3200 Hz, multipath delay phase shifting unit 5 corresponds to the frequency division sub-signal of the frequency band of 3200-6400 Hz, and multipath delay phase shifting unit 6 corresponds to the frequency division sub-signal of the frequency band of 6400-13000 Hz.
Each multipath delay phase shifting unit is used for carrying out delay phase shifting on frequency division signals corresponding to the multipath delay phase shifting units with different amplitudes to obtain M paths of delay phase shifting signals, M is an integer larger than 1, and each multipath delay phase shifting unit comprises M delay phase shifting units. As an embodiment, M has a value ranging from any integer between 6 and 10, i.e. 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10. It will be understood that the value of M may be greater than 10, and that as the value increases, the number of speaker units in the corresponding speaker array also needs to be increased correspondingly. Taking the value of M as 6 as an example, after the 6 paths of frequency division signals are respectively subjected to delay phase shifting with different amplitudes through corresponding multipath delay phase shifting units, the frequency division signals are changed into 36 paths of delay phase shifting signals, and the 36 paths of delay phase shifting signals are respectively loaded onto corresponding loudspeaker units of a loudspeaker array to form a sound field with fixed directivity, namely, the frequency division signals with the frequency band of 200-400 Hz are subjected to delay phase shifting with different amplitudes through a multipath delay phase shifting unit 1, so that 6 paths of delay phase shifting signals are obtained; the frequency-division frequency signal of 400-800 Hz frequency band is subjected to delay phase shifting with different amplitudes through a multipath delay phase shifting unit 2 to obtain 6 paths of delay phase shifting signals; the frequency-division frequency signal of 800-1600 Hz frequency band is subjected to delay phase shifting with different amplitudes through a multipath delay phase shifting unit 3 to obtain 6 paths of delay phase shifting signals; the frequency-division frequency signal of 1600-3200 Hz frequency band is subjected to delay phase shifting of different amplitudes through a multipath delay phase shifting unit 4 to obtain 6 paths of delay phase shifting signals; the frequency division signal of the frequency band of 3200-6400 Hz is subjected to delay phase shifting with different amplitudes through a multipath delay phase shifting unit 5 to obtain 6 paths of delay phase shifting signals; the frequency-division signal of the frequency band of 6400-13000 Hz is subjected to delay phase shifting with different amplitudes through a multipath delay phase shifting unit 6, and 6 paths of delay phase shifting signals are obtained.
The delay phase shifting process of each multipath delay phase shifting unit for carrying out different amplitude on the corresponding frequency division signal is the same, and the delay phase shifting process of different amplitude on the frequency division signal of the frequency band of 200-400 Hz is explained below. Assuming that M is 6, the multipath delay phase shifting unit 1 includes 6 delay phase shifting units 1, and the first delay phase shifting unit 1 delays and shifts the signal, where the amplitude of the signal may be 0 degree, i.e. no delay phase exists; the second delay phase-shifting unit 1 delays and shifts the signal, and the amplitude of the signal can be 6 degrees, namely, the phase delay is 6 degrees; when the third delay phase-shifting unit 1 delays and shifts the signal, the amplitude of the signal can be 12 degrees, namely, the phase delay is 12 degrees; the fourth delay phase-shifting unit 1 delays and shifts the signal, and the amplitude of the signal can be 18 degrees, namely 18 degrees; when the fifth delay phase-shifting unit 1 delays and shifts the signal, the amplitude of the signal can be 24 degrees, namely, the phase delay is 24 degrees; the sixth delay phase-shifting unit 1 delays and shifts the signal, and its amplitude may be 30 degrees, that is, the delay phase is 30 degrees, and its schematic diagram is shown in fig. 2.
The loudspeaker array comprises N.times.M loudspeaker units, each loudspeaker unit corresponds to a delay phase-shifting signal, taking N, M values as 6 as examples, and after the 6 paths of frequency division signals respectively pass through the corresponding multipath delay phase-shifting units to carry out delay phase shifting with different amplitudes, the frequency division signals become 36 paths of delay phase-shifting signals, and the 36 paths of delay phase-shifting signals are respectively loaded onto the corresponding loudspeaker units (the number of the delay phase-shifting signals is 36) of the loudspeaker array to form a sound field with fixed directivity. If N is 6 and m is 10, the speaker array includes 6×10 speaker units, i.e. 6 rows and 10 columns, where each row corresponds to a frequency band.
As an embodiment, the size of the speaker units in different rows in the speaker array is different, and the size of the speaker units in different columns in the same row is the same. A speaker array as shown in fig. 3 is illustrated. The speaker array shares 36 speaker units, each frequency band corresponds to 6 speaker units, the row spacing is D, the column spacing is D, and the value of D can be determined according to the formula (1). The loudspeaker array adopts a closed box structure, the length is L, the width is L, and the depth is h.
Wherein, formula (1) is: To obtain a sharp beam, one is to increase the number n of speaker units of the speaker array or the spacing d of the speaker units, and the other is to increase the frequency f, (where wavelength λ=c/f, where c is the speed of sound in the medium). The higher the frequency, the smaller the beamwidth, given the array structure and shape. θ -3dB is the beam width at which the sidelobe sound drops by-3 dB. The beamwidth is a parameter describing the sharpness of the main beam and is typically defined as twice the corresponding angle at the half-power point, i.e. θ -3dB.
In one embodiment, the size of the speaker units between different rows in the speaker array decreases with increasing corresponding frequency bands. I.e. the size of the speaker unit corresponding to the frequency band of 200-400 Hz is the largest and the size of the speaker unit corresponding to the frequency band of 6400-13000 Hz is the smallest.
The directional sharpness angle of the speaker array over a wide frequency range can be adjusted by equation (2). The direction sharpness angle θ≡is the difference between the two angles when the main beam deflects to both sides with the angle and the value of the directivity function becomes the first minimum value, as shown in fig. 4. n speaker arrays with a spacing d, the directivity function of which can be expressed as:
From equation (2), it can be found that the sound field becomes directional after interference due to the difference in sound path between each sound source and the observation point. The directivity of a speaker array is affected by the number of cells of the array, the pitch of the cells, and the frequency. Because of the relative physical spacing of the speaker units on the speaker array, the directional sharpness angle for different frequencies of sound is not uniform, and therefore it is also important and meaningful how to coordinate the directional sharpness angle θ of the speaker array over a wide sound frequency (200-13000 Hz) band. Wherein, deflection angle θ 0 is:
where x is the base number of the delay path corresponding to other array elements assuming the initial phase is 0. As can be seen from fig. 5, x=ct, where c is the speed of sound in the medium, t is the delay time, and d is the spacing of the speakers (sound sources).
The adjustable sound wave loudspeaker system utilizes the phase control deflection principle of sound wave beams to realize sound wave directivity adjustment or direction-variable directional broadcasting. The phased array obtains the deflection of the wave beam by adjusting different array elements and corresponding phase delay amounts, thereby achieving the effect of deflecting the acoustic wave beam. The phase control is firstly used for the radar antenna array, and the transmission angle of the antenna array can be changed by controlling the delay of the antenna units, and the principle is shown in figure 5. If the frequency is reduced, the method can be used on sound waves to achieve the effect of deflecting sound beams, but the audible sound waves have about 10 octaves, so that the octave width is met, and the layout and the phase control of array units are quite difficult. Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, the frequency division sub-signals of 200-400 Hz, 400-800 Hz, 800-1600 Hz, 1600-3200 Hz, 3200-6400 Hz and 6400-13000 Hz, which are 6 octaves, can be obtained respectively by filtering the signals of the whole audio signal with the first value (such as 200 Hz) below and the second value (such as 13000 Hz) above and then dividing the frequency of the signals of the frequency band of 200-13000 Hz according to the width of the designated frequency band (such as octaves), and then processing each octave signal (frequency division sub-signal) separately.
In view of the fact that the speaker array may be controlled at a far end in order to facilitate adjustment of the amplitude of the delay phase shift according to actual needs, at this time, a control signal for controlling the amplitude of the delay phase shift may be mixed into the input audio signal, and accordingly, in this embodiment, as shown in fig. 6, the tunable acoustic speaker system further includes: and a directional control instruction decoding unit. The directional control instruction decoding unit is respectively connected with each multipath delay phase shifting unit in the N multipath delay phase shifting units, and is used for extracting a control signal from an input signal and transmitting the control signal to each multipath delay phase shifting unit so that each multipath delay phase shifting unit respectively carries out delay phase shifting of different amplitudes on a frequency division signal corresponding to the multipath delay phase shifting unit according to the control signal, at the moment, the input signal is a mixed signal mixed with a control signal and an audio signal for controlling the delay phase shifting amplitude, for example, the control signal is mixed with the audio signal after being coded in a double audio mode. This can better address the problem of the remote communication link for speaker control.
