摘要:
This invention achieves high-quality separation of mixed signals in situations where the relationship between the number of signal sources N and the number of sensors M is such that N>M. First, the values of the observed signal observed by M sensors are transformed into frequency domain values, and these frequency domain values are used to calculate the relative values of the observed values between the sensors at each frequency. These relative values are clustered into N clusters, and the representative value of each cluster is calculated. Then, using these representative values, a mask is produced to extract the values of the signals emitted by V (1≦V≦M) signal sources from the frequency-domain signal values, and this mask is used to extract the signal values emitted by V signal sources from these frequency-domain signal values. After that, if V=1 then the limited signal is output directly as a separated signal, while if V≧2 then the separated values are obtained from this limited signal by subjecting it to separation techniques such as ICA.

An adhesive-treated polyester fiber cord having a high adhesion to non-vulcanized rubber, a high resistance to separation of fibers or filaments from each other, and being useful as a reinforcing cord for producing a rubber composite material such as belt having high dimensional stability and power transmission property, is produced by first impregnating a material cord a first adhesive liquid containing a polyepoxide compound and a blocked polyisocyanate compound in solid weight ratio of 1/3-1/15, by heat treating it at 160-240° C., by second treating the treated cord with a second adhesive liquid containing a resorcinol-formaldehyde resin and a rubber latex in a solid weight ratio of 1/3-1/15, by heat treating it at 180-240° C., by third treating the treated cord with a third adhesive liquid containing a resorcinol formaldehyde resin (resorcinol/formaldehyde molar ratio: 1/0.6-1/1.0) and a rubber component (including natural rubber in a content of at least 15% by weight and optionally vinyl pyridine-styrene-butadiene copolymer rubber) in a weight ratio of 1/10-1/20 and by heat treating at 140-170° C.
摘要:
A received signal is output to an echo path and, at the same time, it is divided into a plurality of subbands to generate subband received signals, which are applied to estimated echo paths in the respective subbands to produce echo replicas. The echo having propagated over the echo path is divided into a plurality of subbands to generate subband echoes, from which the corresponding echo replicas are subtracted to produce misalignment signals. Based on the subband received signal in each subband and the misalignment signal corresponding thereto, a coefficient to be provided to each estimated echo path is adjusted by a projection or ES projection algorithm.

In a subband acoustic echo canceller which generates an echo replica from a subband received signal x.sub.k (m) by an estimated echo path in each subband, subtracts the echo replica from a subband echo signal y.sub.k (m) by a subtractor to generate a subband error signal e.sub.k (m) and uses an adaptive algorithm in an echo path estimation part to estimate the transfer function of the estimated echo path from the subband error signal e.sub.k (m) and the subband received signal x.sub.k (m) so that the subband error signal e.sub.k (m) approaches zero, the stop-band attenuation of each band-pass filter of a received signal subband analysis part for generating the subband received signal x.sub.k (m) is set to be smaller than the stop-band attenuation of each band-pass filter of an echo subband analysis part for generating the subband echo signal Y.sub.k (m) to thereby flatten the frequency characteristics of the subband received signals relative to the subband echo signals.
摘要:
In a multi-channel acoustic echo cancellation, received signals in a plurality of channels are radiated as acoustic signals by a plurality of loudspeakers, received signal vectors in these channels are combined into a combined vector and a rearranged received signal vector in the case of at least two channels being exchanged is generated. By inputting the combined received signal vector into an echo replica generating part which simulates echo paths from the loudspeakers to at least one microphone, an echo replica is generated. The echo replica is subtracted from an echo output from the microphone to obtain a residual echo. Based on the relationship between the received signal vector and the corresponding residual echo and between the rearranged received signal vector and the corresponding approximated residual echo, an adjustment vector is obtained which is used to adjust the estimated echo path vector representing an impulse response of the echo replica generating part.
摘要:
A variation in the cross-correlation between current received signals of different channels is extracted which corresponds to the cross-correlation between previous received signals, and the extracted variation is used as an adjustment vector to iteratively adjust the estimation of the impulse response of each echo path. Furthermore, by additionally providing a function of actively varying the cross-correlation between the received signals to such an extent as not to produce a jarring noise, it is possible to reconstruct acoustic signals by individual loudspeakers and utilize received signal added with the cross-correlation variation to obtain the adjustment vector for an estimated echo path vector.

摘要:
Observed signals x1(t) to xj(t) from a plurality of sensors disposed in two dimensions are subject to a short-time Fourier transform, from which signals X1(ω1) to X1(ωN), . . . XJ(ω1) to XJ(ωN) are derived. Using the independent component analysis process, separation matrices W(ω1) to W(ωN) are produced. Their inverse matrices H(ω1) to H(ωN) are calculated, and for each ωn (n=1, . . . , N), using a pair of elements from each column of H(ωn), Hji(ωn) and Hj′i(ωn), an angle {circumflex over (θ)}i,jj′(ωn)=cos−1(arg(|Hji(ωn)/Hj′i(ωn))/(ωnc−1∥dj−dj′∥)) is calculated where arg(α) represents an argument of α, c the propagation velocity of a signal, and ∥dj−dj′∥ represents a spacing between sensors i and j′. Columns are permuted so that {circumflex over (θ)}i,jj′(ωn) obtained from each column of H(ω1) to H(ωN) assume an ascending order. For columns which cannot be permuted, the equation ∥qi−dj′∥/∥qi−dj∥=|Hji(ωn)/Hj′i(ωn)|=DRi,jj′(ωn) is solved for qi to calculate Ri,jj′(ωn)=∥DRi,jj′(ωn)·(dj−dj′)/(DR2i,jj′(ωn)−1)|. Columns of H(ωn) is permuted so that Ri,jj′(ωn) assume an ascending order. H(ωn) is used to solve the permutation problem of W(ω).
摘要:
In a subband echo cancellation for a multichannel teleconference, received signals x1(k), x2(k), . . . , xI(k) of each channel are divided into N subband signals, an echo y(k) picked up by a microphone 16j after propagation over an echo path is divided into N subband signals y0(k), . . . ,yN−1(k), and vectors each composed of a time sequence of subband received signals x1(k), . . . , xI(k) are combined for each corresponding subband. The combined vector and an echo cancellation error signal in the corresponding subband are input into an estimation part 19n, wherein a cross-correlation variation component is extracted. The extracted component is used as an adjustment vector to iteratively adjust the impulse response of an estimated echo path. The combined vector is applied to an estimated echo path 18n formed by the adjusted value to obtain an echo replica. An echo cancellation error signal en(k) is calculated from the echo replica and a subband echo yn(k).
