Acoustic source localization [4] is the task of locating a sound source given measurements of the sound field. The sound field can be described using physical quantities like sound pressure and particle velocity. By measuring these properties it is (indirectly) possible to obtain a source direction.
The ratio between direct sound and reflected sound can give an indication about the distance of the sound source. Loudness: Distant sound sources have a lower loudness than close ones. This aspect can be evaluated especially for well-known sound sources. Sound spectrum: High frequencies are more quickly damped by the air than low frequencies ...
3D sound localization refers to an acoustic technology that is used to locate the source of a sound in a three-dimensional space. The source location is usually determined by the direction of the incoming sound waves (horizontal and vertical angles) and the distance between the source and sensors.
The location of a sound source is determined through three-dimensional sound localization using multiple microphone arrays, binaural hearing methods, and HRTF (head-related transfer function). After identifying the direction, other signal processing techniques are used to measure the impulse response over lengths of time to determine the ...
Sound ranging is an application of sound (or acoustic) location, which is the identification of the source of sounds that may originate in the air, on the ground or on or below the water's surface. Sound ranging was one of three methods of locating hostile artillery that rapidly developed in World War I .
Over many years, downhole noise logging tools proved effective in inflow and injectivity profiling of operating wells, [3] [4] leak detection, [5] [6] location of cross-flows behind casing, [7] and even in determining reservoir fluid compositions. [8] Robinson (1974) described how noise logging can be used to determine effective reservoir ...
In atmospheric sounding and noise pollution, ambient noise level (sometimes called background noise level, reference sound level, or room noise level) is the background sound pressure level at a given location, normally specified as a reference level to study a new intrusive sound source. [1] Ambient sound levels are often measured in order to ...
A leak noise correlator is an electronic device used for Leak Detection and as a leak locator to find leaks in pressurized water or gas lines.. Typically, microphones or acoustic sound sensors are placed in contact with the pipe, at two or more points, to record the sound emitted by a leak (e.g. a hissing noise) somewhere between the points.
