A three-dimensional audio signal generating method for aspheric loudspeaker array

3D audio technology has been coming gradually into the market with its use in the film industry. However, the existing 3D-audio generating methods are based on the spherical loudspeaker array. Given that a typical family can hardly allow a spherical loudspeaker array, the current algorithms have impeded the progress of the popularization and the development of the multimedia industry to some extent. In this paper, we propose a novel method which is available for the aspherical loudspeaker array. Based on the physical properties of sound signals in air, the proposed method develops a 3D-audio signal generating and distributing model, through which the 3D effect in irregular loudspeaker array can be reproduced. Our preliminary results show that there are no obvious differences between the original source and the virtual source reproduced by our model.
