  • Patent number: 9363618
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and device for controlling speaker array sound field based on a quadratic residue sequence combination. The method comprises steps of: (1) fragmenting a designated quadratic residue sequence in terms of the number of array elements, to generate a plurality of quadratic residue subsequences; (2) designing an optimal array phase delay vector utilizing these subsequences; (3) controlling transmission signals of multi-element channels according to the optimal phase delay vector to adjust phase delay; (4) sending the multi-channel signals subjected to adjustment to a multi-channel power amplifier, to drive the speaker array to generate uniform sound field. The device comprises a sound source, an optimal phase delay estimator, an optimal phase delay controller, a multi-channel power amplifier and a speaker array. The invention can expand the coverage range of sound field radiated from an array and improve uniformity of the sound field.
