    摘要: A virtual stereo synthesis method includes acquiring at least one sound input signal on a first side and at least one sound input signal on a second side, separately performing ratio processing on a preset head related transfer function (HRTF) left-ear component and a preset HRTF right-ear component of each sound input signal on the second side, to obtain a filtering function of each sound input signal on the second side, separately performing convolution filtering on each sound input signal on the second side and the filtering function of the sound input signal on the second side, to obtain the filtered signal on the second side, and synthesizing all of the sound input signals on the first side and all of the filtered signals on the second side into a virtual stereo signal where the method may alleviate a coloration effect, and reduce calculation complexity.
