  • LOUDSPEAKER POSITION ESTIMATION
    Publication number: 20100195444
    Abstract: The invention relates to an automated estimation of the position (co-ordinates) of a set of loudspeakers in a room Based on measured impulse responses the distances between each pair of loudspeakers are estimated, thereby forming a distance matrix, and the resultant distance matrix is used by a multidimensional scaling (MDS) algorithm to estimate the co-ordinates of each individual loudspeaker An improved co-ordinate estimation can, if desired, be derived by utilising the stress values provided by the MDS algorithm.
