Introduction

• Personal sound is an active research topic

Introduction

• Two main approaches to sound zones [1]

- Energy cancellation- Least-squares error minimization

• Previous reported results limited to mono• Likely requirement for stereo from consumers• We investigate stereophonic personal audio

Background

• Create two virtual loudspeakers and quiet zone

• Require control of energy directionTarget listener gets stereo image

Listener in quiet zone undisturbed

Cost functions

• Pressure matching (PM; plane-wave target) [5]

pressure in the dark zone + bright zone reproduction error

Summary

• Previous personal audio work in mono• Extension to stereo investigated• Implemented PC and PM on 60 channel circle• PC gave up to 30dB contrast • PC 6 dB greater contrast than PM

(freq. ave., 250-2000 Hz)• PM placement 1.2 degrees more accurate

(channel & freq. ave., 250-2000 Hz)• Further work should investigate perception
