Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020120772A1] The invention relates to a method for interpolating a sound field sensed by a plurality of N microphones each delivering the sound field encoded in a form comprising at least one sensed pressure and an associated pressure gradient vector. Such a method comprises interpolating the sound field at an interpolation position delivering an interpolated encoded sound field expressed as a linear combination of the N encoded sound fields each weighted by a corresponding weighting factor. The interpolation comprises estimating the N weighting factors from at least: - the interpolation position; - a position of each of the N microphones; - the N pressures sensed by the N microphones; and - an estimated strength of the sound field at the interpolation position.
