Abstract: The disclosure relates to an audio processing apparatus for localizing an audio source. The audio processing apparatus comprises a plurality of audio sensors, including a primary audio sensor and at least two secondary audio sensors, configured to detect an audio signal from a target audio source, wherein the primary audio sensor defines at least two pairs of audio sensors with the at least two secondary audio sensors; and processing circuitry configured to: determine for each pair of audio sensors a first set of likelihoods of spatial directions of the target audio source using a first localization scheme; determine a second set of likelihoods of spatial directions of the target audio source using a second localization scheme; and determine a third set of likelihoods of spatial directions of the target audio source on the basis of the first sets of likelihoods and the second set of likelihoods.

Abstract: An apparatus determines a spatial position of an audio source in multi moving audio sources scenarios. The apparatus receives audio signal versions as local sound waves. The apparatus determines first and second probabilities for a direction of arrival of the audio signal version based on the audio signal versions received within a first time interval; determines third and fourth probabilities for the direction of arrival of the audio signal version based on the audio signal versions received within a second time interval; determines a first probability difference between the first and third probabilities; determines a second probability difference between the second and fourth probabilities; combines the third probability and the first probability difference to obtain an updated third probability; combines the fourth probability with the second probability difference to obtain an updated fourth probability; and determines the spatial position based on the updated third and fourth probabilities.

Abstract: A method and a device encode N audio signals, from N microphones where N≥3. For each pair of the N audio signals an angle of incidence of direct sound is estimated. A-format direct sound signals are derived from the estimated angles of incidence by deriving from each estimated angle an A-format direct sound signal. Each A-format direct sound signal is a first-order virtual microphone signal, for example, a cardioids signal.

Abstract: A device and method, respectively, obtain a first order ambisonic (FOA) signal from signals of multiple microphones, e.g., at least four or five directive microphones. The device and method determine a look direction of each microphone, and calculate a decoding matrix based on the determined look directions. The decoding matrix is a matrix suitable for decoding a FOA signal into the signals of the microphones. Further, the device and method invert the decoding matrix to obtain an encoding matrix, and encode the signals of the microphones based on the encoding matrix to obtain the FOA signal.

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.
