Abstract

Differential microphone array (DMA) designed in the STFT domain has attracted many researches efforts recently for its flexibility and small size. Theoretically, a DMA can achieve a frequency invariant beampattern that is very helpful for many applications. But in practice, the mismatch between the designed beampattern and the ideal DMA pattern is out of control. In this paper, we propose a new measure on the beampattern misalignment, and deduce a convex solution based on constrained least square (CLS) and second-order cone (SOC) optimization. It is verified that the CLS method can provide almost ideal DMA pattern with controllable white noise gain (WNG). We also show that with more microphones, the overall system performance can be further improved.
