  • Patent number: 6519344
    Abstract: There is provided an audio system which suppresses standing waves. An audio signal source (1) outputs audio signals (SR) and (SL) which are then supplied to reproducing loudspeakers (3) and (4),installed in a room (2), where the reproduced sounds are outputted. Furthermore, the audio signals (SR) and (SL) are added at an adder (9) to obtain signal (S2) which is in turn filtered by a compensating filter and then inverted by means of an inverting circuit (13). This generates a compensation signal (Sc) with a phase opposite to that of the standing wave. The compensation signal (Sc) is supplied to a compensating loudspeaker (5) installed in the room (2), whereby sound for canceling out the standing wave is outputted. The compensating filter has its frequency characteristics set in accordance with the cross-correlation function between a transfer function from the reproducing loudspeakers, (3) and (4), to a listening location and a transfer function from the compensating loudspeaker (5) to the listening location.

  • Publication number: 20020177411
    Abstract: There is provided a Bluetooth apparatus which can be easily associated with a Bluetooth device address (BD-ADDR) in a Piconet. When a Bluetooth master apparatus selects a Bluetooth slave apparatus to be connected, the selected apparatus is clearly indicated by a selection notifying operation performed by the slave apparatus using a display or sound. When each slave apparatus has an identification number which is unique and well known, the number is returned to the master. The master apparatus registers such a number in association with a BD-ADDR.

  • Publication number: 20020042712
    Abstract: At the time of the speaker adaptation, first feature vector generation sections (7, 8, 9) generate a feature vector series [ci, M] from which the additive noise and multiplicative noise are removed. A second feature vector generation section (12) generates a feature vector series [si, M] including the features of the additive noise and multiplicative noise. A path search section (10) conducts a path search by comparing the feature vector series [ci, M] to the standard vector [an, M] of the standard voice HMM (300). When the speaker adaptation section (11) conducts correlation operation on an average feature vector [sn, M] of the standard vector [an, M] corresponding to the path search result Dv and the feature vector series [si, M], the adaptive vector [xn, M] is generated. The adaptive vector [xn, M] updates the feature vector of the speaker adaptive acoustic model (400) used for the voice recognition.
