Title: | Design of broadband beamformers with low complexity | Authors: | Feng, Z Yiu, CKF Teo, KL Nordholm, S |
Issue Date: | 9-Mar-2012 | Source: | EURASIP Journal on advances in signal processing, 9 Mar. 2012, 2012:62, p. 1-11 | Abstract: | In this article, we consider the design of broadband beamformers with low complexity. In fact, the design problem is multi-objective in nature, trading off between speech distortion and noise suppression. Finding a balance between these two objectives is important in order to achieve a desired sound quality. These measures are introduced as the objectives here. The design can then be obtained via a bi-objective integer programming problem, where the coefficients of the filters are expressed as sums of signed powers-of-two terms. We study two different integer spaces and penalty functions for solving the problem. Then, an algorithm based on a discrete filled function is developed for finding the optimal design. In order to illustrate the effectiveness of the algorithm, real data is used and two broadband beamformers are demonstrated. | Keywords: | Algorithms Beamforming Design Integer programming |
