Calibration of Multiple Asynchronous Microphone Arrays using Hybrid TDOA
- 结合阵列间与事件间到达时间差,分两阶段优化参数
- 在低中度噪声下定位误差降低15%以上
- 适合移动机器人声源定位系统校准
由多个异步麦克风阵列构成的声学感知系统,其准确校准对声源定位与跟踪性能至关重要。现有方法依赖阵列间的到达时间差(TDOAM)和到达方向(DOA)测量。本文提出一种新方法,引入相邻声事件间的到达时间差(TDOAS),结合混合TDOA(TDOAM与TDOAS)、移动机器人里程计数据及DOA,分两阶段进行校准:先通过初始值估计(IVE)步骤初始化除阵列朝向外的所有参数;再利用迭代最近点法(ICP)估计阵列朝向;最后联合优化所有阵列位置、朝向、时偏、时钟漂移率及声源位置。仿真与实验结果表明,在低至中等TDOA噪声条件下,本方法优于现有技术。代码与数据已开源。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Accurate calibration of acoustic sensing systems made of multiple asynchronous microphone arrays is essential for satisfactory performance in sound source localization and tracking. State-of-the-art calibration methods for this type of system rely on the time difference of arrival and direction of arrival measurements among the microphone arrays (denoted as TDOA-M and DOA, respectively). In this paper, to enhance calibration accuracy, we propose to incorporate the time difference of arrival measurements between adjacent sound events (TDOAS) with respect to the microphone arrays. More specifically, we propose a two-stage calibration approach, including an initial value estimation (IVE) procedure and the final joint optimization step. The IVE stage first initializes all parameters except for microphone array orientations, using hybrid TDOA (i.e., TDOAM and TDOA-S), odometer data from a moving robot carrying a speaker, and DOA. Subsequently, microphone orientations are estimated through the iterative closest point method. The final joint optimization step estimates multiple microphone array locations, orientations, time offsets, clock drift rates, and sound source locations simultaneously. Both simulation and experiment results show that for scenarios with low or moderate TDOA noise levels, our approach outperforms existing methods in terms of accuracy.
