Foreword This Technical Specificatio

19、n (TS) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Speech and multimedia Transmission Quality (STQ). The present document describes a sound field recording and reproduction technique which can be applied for all types of terminals but is especially suitable for modern multi-microphone terminals in

20、cluding array techniques.

Introduction Background noise is present in most of the conversations today. Background noise may impact the speech communication performance of te

24、rminal and network equipment significantly. Therefore testing and optimization of such equipment is necessary using realistic background noises. Furthermore reproducible conditions for the tests are required which can be guaranteed only under lab type conditions. Since modern terminals incorporate m

25、ore advanced noise cancellation techniques, such as multi-microphone based noise cancellation, the use of microphone-array recording techniques and more realistic noise field simulations (compared to the method described in ETSI EG 202 396-1 i.7) are required. The present document addresses this top

26、ic by specifying a methodology for recording and playback of realistic background noise fields under conditions that are well-defined and able to be calibrated in a lab type environment. Furthermore a database with real background noises is included. ETSI ETSI TS 103 224 V1.2.1 (2015-08)5 1 Scope Th

27、e quality of background noise transmission is an important factor, which significantly contributes to the perceived overall quality of speech. Terminals, networks, and system configurations including wideband, superwideband, and fullband speech services can be greatly improved with a proper design o

28、f terminals and systems in the presence of background noise. The present document: describes a sound field simulation technique allowing to simulate the real environment using realistic background noise scenarios for laboratory use; contains a database including relevant background noise samples for

29、 subjective and objective evaluation. The present document describes the recording technique used for the sound field simulation, the loudspeaker setup, and the loudspeaker calibration and equalization procedures. Furthermore the present document specifies the test room requirements for laboratory c

30、onditions. The simulation environment specified can be used for the evaluation and optimization of terminals and of complex configurations including terminals, networks and others. The main application areas are: outdoor, office, home and car environment. The setup and database as described in the p

31、resent document are applicable for: Objective performance evaluation of terminals in different (simulated) background noise environments. Speech processing evaluation by using the pre-processed speech signals in the presence of background noise, recorded by a terminal. Subjective evaluation of termi

32、nals by performing conversational tests, specific double talk tests, or talking and listening tests in the presence of background noise. Subjective evaluation in third party listening tests by recording the speech samples of terminals in the presence of background noise. 2 References 2.1 Normative r

43、, two of them are wave field synthesis i.1 and Ambisonics i.2. Both methods, however, require a large number of microphones and loudspeakers to achieve a sound field reproduction which is sufficiently good for testing purposes. The Wave-Field synthesis setup is that complex and expensive that it can

44、 be neglected for laboratory purposes. Ambisonics, for example, has to be performed using 43 microphones and 43 loudspeakers to reach a good sound field reproduction up to 2 kHz in a sweet spot with radius 15 cm (using the rule of thumb in i.3). It furthermore cannot consider individual room charact

45、eristics or insufficiencies, but is only designed for rooms offering pure free field conditions. If, e.g. for testing purposes a HATS is positioned in the artificial noise field, the reproduction quality is reduced by an unknown amount. In summary, the Ambisonics approach is due to its design not fe

46、asible for the intended testing scenario. The present document introduces an alternative least mean squares method i.4, which requires eight recording channels and eight loudspeakers in order to achieve reasonably good reproduction results. The method is based on eight sweet spots at important testi

47、ng positions e.g. near the HATS, mainly at the microphone positions of modern phones. A reasonable reproduction of the recorded sound field at the corresponding eight points in the reproduction situation also yields good reproduction accuracy in between these points. This well-known property of soun

48、d fields is limited to an upper cut-off frequency which depends on the distances between the recording microphones (see clause 5.1.1). In clause 5, the recording technique required for this new method is described, while the setup allowing the reproduction in laboratories and the different steps of

49、the equalization procedure are introduced in clause 6. 5 Recording arrangement 5.0 General The sound field recording technique (Multi-point sound field recording technique) is based on optimization of the sound field reproduction at different points in space. The optimization criterion is based on minimization of the reproduction error at each microphone position. Based on this principle the microphone locations and as a consequence the points in space for which the sound field reproduction is mostly accurate can be chosen in a wide
