新的研究结果表明,在房间内的未放大的语音通信早期反射是很重要的,实现足够的语音清晰度和早期反射能量通常是远远大于直接的声音能量的幅度。在模拟声场中使用押韵测试测量语音清晰度,该声场包括具有不同早期反射的直达声和具有恒定环境噪声水平的混响声沿着。结果证实,增加的早期反射能量相当于增加的直达声能量。直接声音和早期反射的组合增加了受损和未受损听众的有效信噪比和相关语音清晰度分数。新的结果还表明,对于直接声音减少的常见条件,只有由于早期反射的存在,才有可能理解语音。分析测量的脉冲响应在房间的讲话,在衡量…
New results demonstrate that in rooms for unamplified speech communication early reflections are important for achieving adequate speech intelligibility and that early reflection energy is typically much greater in magnitude than the direct sound energy. Speech intelligibility was measured using a rhyme test in simulated sound fields that included a direct sound with varied early reflections and reverberant sound along with a constant level of ambient noise. The results confirmed that added early reflection energy is equivalent to increased direct sound energy. The combination of direct sound and early reflections increases the effective signal‐to‐noise ratio and the related speech intelligibility scores for both impaired and nonimpaired listeners. The new results also show, that for common conditions where the direct sound is reduced, it is only possible to understand speech because of the presence of early reflections. Analyses of measured impulse responses in rooms for speech, in terms of a measure of ...
