Abstract: | In many engineering fields, distance to target is very important and fundamental information. Acoustical signal often plays an essential role in measurement of distance. Though there are distance measurement methods using a time delay between transmitted and reflected waves, it is difficult to measure short distance because the transmitted wave suppresses the reflected waves for short distance. Recently, in a research field of microwave, a method for measuring the short distance has been proposed using interference (i.e., standing wave) of transmitted and reflected waves. We applied the fundamental principle of this method to the estimation of short distance using audible sound as a transmitted wave. Until now, this method supposed that microphone was set at the straight line between a sound source and a target. However, we can not estimate exactly the distance between the microphone and target when the microphone is not set on the straight line due to the restriction of measuring environment. This paper describes a principle and its correction method for the distance estimation when a microphone is not set on the straight line between the sound source and microphone. Then, we perform a computer simulation under the condition that audible sound is used as a transmitted wave. Finally, we experimentally confirm the validity and effectiveness of the method proposed by applying it to the distance estimation problem in an actual sound field. |
