Abstract:
A method and system is provided for processing audio information in a digital signal processor, where the audio information is either received from a microphone array or applied to a loudspeaker array. The digital signal processor applies a double delay-and-subtract beamforming algorithm to two non-collinear pairs of microphone outputs or loudspeaker inputs to provide an array with improved directionality and more uniform signal rejection away from the main beam of the beam formed signal. This can be further improved by tessellating multiple arrays into a macro-array and superimposing their responses.
