Abstract

This paper describes a method for estimating the amplitude characteristics of
common poles in a room soundfield from a musical audio signal received by
multiple microphones.
It has been proven that an estimate can be calculated precisely for
a white source signal.
However, if a source signal is colored as in the case of a musical audio signal,
the estimates are degraded by
the frequency characteristics originally contained in the source signal.
In this paper, we propose an extension of the conventional method so that
it can estimate the amplitude characteristics of common acoustical poles.
Simulation results for popular, classical, and jazz musical pieces
showed the effectiveness of the proposed method.
