Abstract

Loudspeaker driver models are widely adopted in the industry and academia for a variety of applications ranging from loudspeaker design and engineering to loudspeaker system control through digital signal processing. In this contribution we describe a modeling approach based on Wave Digital Filters that allows us to simulate the loudspeaker driver large signal performance. The proposed approach features an efficient and explicit discrete-time realization of the nonlinear loudspeaker driver. We compare simulations with results to prove the accuracy of the proposed approach.
