| The paper presents results of determination of sound wave direction based on signals from first-order ambisonic microphone. The experiment consisted in recording the test signals with the SoundField microphone positioned in the axis of the turntable in the anechoic chamber. The spherical coordinates of the sound intensity vector were calculated with use of three different conceptual and numerical approaches and were compared to actual values resulting from the geometry of the system. Accuracy of the localization of the sound source depending on the frequencies and the method for determination of the spherical coordinates as well as on the time constant and the parameters of the signal recording was presented. The obtained results show the effectiveness of the calculation methods used for localization of the sound source. |
