This paper describes Listening Decision Aid Simulator (LDAS) to provide a decision-supporting tool that can reproduce real-like listening situations focused on the duty officer's two ears. The sound propagation mechanism from a whistle to listener's two ears is established at first, and the spatial transfer coefficients of a bridge door are measured at training vessel. Then, the construction works with the spatial transfer coefficients and its evaluation experiments with five collision accidents are carried out. As results from tests, the five cases can be judge by LDAS; it led to the insight of practical use of LDAS as one of the decision supporting system in collision accidents.

The paper is the second part on the 3-D sound-field creation implementing the Virtual Reality Ship Handling Simyulator(VRSHS). As mentioned in the previous part Ⅰ, the spatial impression, which arose from reproduced 3-D sound-field , give natural sound environmental context to a listener. This spatial impression is due to the reverberation by reflections and ,is can be obtain by using Head-Related Transfer Function(HRTF). In this work, we foumulate early and late reverberation models of the HRTF's with theoretical control factors based on the sound-energy distribution in an irregularly shaped enclosures. Using the reverberation models, we report results from psychophysical tests used to asses the validity of the proposed 3-D soud-field control method.

Spatial control of sound is essential to deliver better sound to the listener's position in space. As it can be experienced in many listening environments, the quality of sound can not be manifested over every position in a hall. This motivates us to control sound in a region we select. The primary focus of the developed method has to do with the brightness and contrast of acoustic image in space. In particular, the acoustic brightness control seeks a way to increase loudness of sound over a chosen area, and the contrast control aims to enhance loudness difference between two neighboring regions. This enables us to make two different kinds of zone - the zone of quiet and the zone of loud sound - at the same time. The other perspective of this study is on the direction of sound. It is shown that we can control the direction of perceived sound source by focusing acoustic energy in wavenumber domain. To begin with, the proposed approaches are formulated for pure-tone case. Then the control methods are extended to a more general case, where the excitation signal has broadband spectrum. In order to control the broadband signal in time domain, an inverse filter design problem is defined and solved in frequency domain. Numerical and experimental results obtained in various conditions certainly validate that the acoustic brightness, acoustic contrast, direction of wave front can be manipulated for some finite region in space and time.

The impact of sound speed variability in the sea is the very important on acoustic propagation for the underwater acoustic systems. Understanding of the temporal and spatial variability of ocean sound speed in the sea around the Ieodo were obtained using oceanographic data (temperature, salinity). from the Korea Oceanographic Data Center, collected by season for 17 years. The vertical distributions of sound speed are mainly related to seasonal variations and various current such as Chinese coastal water, Yellow Sea Cold Water (YSCW), Kuroshio source water. The standard deviations show that great variations of sound speed exist in the upper layer and observation station between 16 and 18. In order to quantitatively explain the reason for sound speed variations, Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF) analysis was performed on sound speed data at the Line 316 covering 68 cruises between 2002 and 2018. Three main modes of EOFs respectively revealed 55, 29, and 5% the total variance of sound speed. The first mode of the EOFs was associated with influence of surface heating. The second EOFs pattern shows that contributions of YSCW and surface heating. The first and second modes had seasonal and inter-annul variations.

본 논문에서는 입체음향효과의 향상을 위한 스테레오-10.2채널의 블라인드 업믹스 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 최근에, 소비자들은 더 나은 입체음향효과나 3D 사운드를 즐기길 원하고 다양한 멀티채널 포맷의 등장으로 업믹스 알고리즘들이 연구 되어 왔다. 그러나 기존의 업믹스 알고리즘들은 공간정보를 왜곡하는 문제점을 가지고 있었다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기위해 전 후방 채널에 대한 이득 조절 및 10.2 채널의 각 채널별 믹싱 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존의 상용화된 멀티채널 업믹스 알고리즘들과의 주관적 평가 실험결과 제안한 알고리즘은 입력신호의 공간정보를 유지하면서 입체음향효과를 향상시킨 것으로 확인되었다.

이 연구에서는, 반사 음파 전달 특성에 의한 공간감 효과를 이용하여 음상 정위를 개선할 수 있는 HRTF 모델링 방법을 제안하였다. 실험 결과, 최적으로 평가된 반사 음파 전달 특성을 갖는 HRTF 모델은, 직접 음파 전달 특성만으로 구성된 HRTF 모델과 비교하여 음상 전위가 약 23% 이상 개선되었다. 그리고, 적절한 공간감이 음상 정위의 정확도를 증가시킬 수 있는 요소임을 알았다.

Including a TV set and a monitor, personal audio system is raising a great interest. In this study, we applied a method to make a good bright zone around the user and dark zone to other region by maximizing the ratio of sound energy between the bright and dark zone. It has been well known as acoustic contrast control. We have attempted to use a line loudspeaker array system to localize the sound in our listening zone. It depends on the size of the zone and array parameters, for example, array size, loudspeaker unit spacing, wave length of sound. We have considered these parameters as spatial variables and studied the effects. And we have found that each spatial variable has its own characteristic and shows very different effect. Genetic algorithms are introduced to find out the optimum value of spatial variables. As a result, we can improve the result of the acoustic contrast control by optimum value of spatial variables.

An active method that improves low frequency characteristics of a reverberation chamber has been proposed. Spatial uniformity of sound pressure at low frequency has been increased by applying active noise control system. The system acts as frequency selective damping materials, which decreases resonance at low frequency and leave high frequency sound field as it is. Linearity of the chamber, which is essential for sound power measurement in the chamber, is guaranteed since fixed control logic has been adopted. Simple application and tests have been done in a small sized rectangular reverberation chamber which has 400Hz cutoff, Loud speakers were used to simulate a noise source and to construct an active noise control system. The spatial distribution of a sound field at 250Hz, 315Hz and 400Hz bands has been measured before and after control. The standard deviation of sound field has been decreased from 3.4dB to 2.5dB. The results show the possibility of active control system as a sound diffuser.
