Device and method for estimating direction of arrival
Abstract:
A device for estimating Direction of Arrival (DOA) of sound from Q≥1 sound sources is provided. The device is configured to obtain a phase difference matrix, which includes measured phase difference values, each of the measured phase difference values being a measured value of a phase difference between two microphone units for a frequency bin in a range of frequencies of the sound. The device is further configured to generate a replicated phase difference matrix by replicating the measured phase difference values to other potential sinusoidal periods, calculate a DOA value for each phase difference value in the replicated phase difference matrix, and determine, as Q DOA results, the Q most prominent peak values in a histogram generated based on the calculated DOA values.
