Abstract

Personal sound zone systems require to know the acoustic transfer functions (ATFs) between the loudspeakers and matching microphones, which in general have to be measured in advance. As the measurement is affected by such factors as sensors' position mismatches and environmental changes, deviation of the measured ATF-s from the true ones is unavoidable and such perturbation may lead to significant performance degradation in sound zone production. In this work, a method is developed for robust acoustic contrast control, which simultaneously considers the norm-bounded uncertainties and a positive semidefinite constraint to ensure the optimization problem to have a solution. Since the problem is non-convex, the polynomial time difference-of-convex functions (POTDC) algorithm is adopted to identify the optimal solution. Simulations are performed to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method and it demonstrates a performance superior to other existing robust control methods.
