An auditorily motivated analysis method for room impulse responses
In this paper a new auditorily motivated analysis method for room impulse responses is presented. The method applies same kind of time and frequency resolution than the human hearing. With the proposed method it is possible to study the decaying sound field of a room in more detail. It is applicable as well in the analysis of artificial reverberation and related audio effects. The method, used with directional microphones, gives us also hints about the diffuseness and the directional characteristics of the sound fields in the time-frequency domain. As a case study two example room impulse responses are analyzed.
