聲學頭部關係轉移函數模擬與心理聲學參數研究

聲學頭部關係轉移函數(Head related transfer function, HRTF)係指在自由聲場下，聲音傳遞至人耳的轉移函數。由於人頭與耳廓等幾何形狀影響聲場的散射與繞射等效應，HRTF之分佈與音源-人頭的相對方向有莫大關係。因此HRTF對於研究音源對於人耳感受之研究頗為重要，對應於心理聲學與雙耳量測技術中，扮演相當重要的腳色。本文以理論解與邊界元素法分析剛性圓球模型周圍聲場，確認聲場與HRTF模擬之正確性。再探討以橢圓球與加上耳廓的類人頭模型作為簡化人頭的頭部關係轉移函數特性，並利用聲學互易原理縮減HRTF的計算量。另外，整理MIT依KEMAR的人體模型建立的HRTF資料庫之基本特性，與橢圓球與加上耳廓的類人頭模型之分析結果進行比較；分析結果顯示加上耳廓的類人頭模型，已能表現大部分KEMAR人體模型具備的HRTF特性。橢圓球與加上耳廓的類人頭模型之分析結果與實驗結果一致性很高。將實驗結果加上心理聲學參數，探討不同方位的聲音對響度與銳度計算結果之影響。

The Head Related Transfer Functions (HRTFs) describe the effects of human head and ears on sound wave propagation from sound source to ears in free field, which are defined to indicate the characteristics of human hearing acoustic. Owing to the geometric parameters of human head and ears, the distribution of HRTF has close relationship of relative positions between sound source and human ears. HRTFs are important on the hearing perception and binaural technique in psychoacoustic research. In this reasearch, the basic characters of a rigid sphere HRTFs were investigated by using analytical solution and boundary element method (BEM). Then, the HRTFs for a simplified ellipsoid head with and without ears models were examined. To reduce the computation resource, the acoustic reciprocal principle was used for numerical analysis. The HRTFs of these two models were compared with the characters of MIT KEMAR HRTF database, and the results show that the characters of the with ears model match well with MIT KEMAR HRTF database. T he simulated results match well with the experimental data. Finally, the experimental data are examined with several psychoacoustic parameters, and the effects sound directions on the loudness and sharpness were investigated.
