Beamforming in Audio Signal Processing

 

Beamforming is powered by digital signal processing as well as two concepts known as constructive and destructive. Audio beamforming is a research topic. 

Here, multiple speakers, or an array of speakers, will play a crucial role. The main focus of audio-beamforming is to focus the strong audio signal in a particular direction or direction of the listener. For example, you want to enjoy a football match at night. But someone is not interested in the same room. Then you can enjoy the football match with a good sound without disturbing others. Here, the DSP audio signal processing tool will allow the sound to travel in a particular direction while canceling or minimizing the sound in the other direction for the desired audience's direction; it will work at the construction of soundwave mode while destruction on the other sides. 

This technique may be very advanced in the future, using artificial technology or raytracing techniques to track the desired user and canceling the noise or interferences in this direction greatly compared to other directions.

OFDM Symbols and Subcarriers Explained

This article explains how OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) symbols and subcarriers work. It covers modulation, mapping symbols to subcarriers, subcarrier frequency spacing, IFFT synthesis, cyclic prefix, and transmission. Step 1: Modulation First, modulate the input bitstream. For example, with 16-QAM , each group of 4 bits maps to one QAM symbol. Suppose we generate a sequence of QAM symbols: s0, s1, s2, s3, s4, s5, …, s63 Step 2: Mapping Symbols to Subcarriers Assume N sub = 8 subcarriers. Each OFDM symbol in the frequency domain contains 8 QAM symbols (one per subcarrier): Mapping (example) OFDM symbol 1 → s0, s1, s2, s3, s4, s5, s6, s7 OFDM symbol 2 → s8, s9, s10, s11, s12, s13, s14, s15 … OFDM sym...

Fundamentals of Channel Estimation

Channel Estimation Techniques Channel Estimation is an auto‑regressive process that may be performed with a number of iterations. There are commonly three types of channel estimation approaches: Pilot estimation Blind estimation Semi‑blind estimation. For Channel Estimation, CIR [↗] is used. The amplitudes of the impulses decrease over time and are not correlated. For example: y(n) = h(n) * x(n) + w(n) where y(n) is the received signal, x(n) is the sent signal, and w(n) is the additive white Gaussian noise. At the next stage: h(n+1) = a * h(n) + w(n) The channel coefficient will be modified as stated above at the subsequent stage. The scaling factor “a” determines the impulse’s amplitude, whereas h(n+1) represents the channel coefficient at the following stage. Pilot Estimation Method To understand how a communication medium is currently behaving, a channel estimate is necessary...

Pulse Position Modulation (PPM)

Pulse Position Modulation (PPM) is a type of signal modulation in which M message bits are encoded by transmitting a single pulse within one of 2แดน possible time positions within a fixed time frame. This process is repeated every T seconds , resulting in a data rate of M/T bits per second . PPM is a form of analog modulation where the position of each pulse is varied according to the amplitude of the sampled modulating signal , while the amplitude and width of the pulses remain constant . This means only the timing (position) of the pulse carries the information. PPM is commonly used in optical and wireless communications , especially where multipath interference is minimal or needs to be reduced. Because the information is carried in timing , it's more robust in some noisy environments compared to other modulation schemes. Although PPM can be used for analog signal modulation , it is also used in digital communications where each pulse position represents a symbol or bit...
