  • Patent number: 11589161
    Abstract: The present invention is a signal processing circuit 12 for an electrostatic electroacoustic transducer configured to correct signals input to a single driven electrostatic electroacoustic transducer 15 including a diaphragm 151 and a fixed electrode 152 disposed to face the diaphragm. The signal processing circuit includes a correction value determiner 122 configured to determine a correction value v1 of a level based on a level of the input signals s1 from the sound source, and a level corrector 124 configured to correct the level of the input signals based on the correction value. The level corrector is configured to correct the level of an input signal among the input signals based on the correction value. The input signal corresponds to a signal for displacing the diaphragm to a first direction side on which a fixed electrode is not disposed with respect to a predetermined position.

  • Patent number: 11553294
    Abstract: A method for determining microphone position is a method for determining positions of a plurality of microphones in a microphone array having the plurality of microphones arranged in a plurality of concentric circles. The method for determining microphone position includes a constraint condition acquiring step of acquiring constraint conditions including the maximum number of the plurality of microphones; and a selecting step of selecting, from among a plurality of combinations of (i) the number of microphones included in each of the plurality of concentric circles and (ii) the radius of each of the plurality of concentric circles, a combination indicating directional characteristics with the smallest difference from a target value of the directional characteristics of the microphone array, where the plurality of combinations satisfy the constraint conditions.
