Spatial Sound

Principles and Applications

About this book

Spatial sound is an enhanced and immersive set of audio techniques which provides sound in three-dimensional virtual space. This comprehensive handbook sets out the basic principles and methods with a representative group of applications: sound field and spatial hearing; principles and analytic methods of various spatial sound systems, including two-channel stereophonic sound, and multichannel horizontal and spatial surround sound; ambisonics; wavefield synthesis; binaural playback and virtual auditory display; recording and synthesis, and storage and transmission of spatial sound signals; and objective and subjective evaluation. Applications range from cinemas to small mobile devices.

  • The only book to review spatial sound principles and applications extensively
  • Covers the whole field of spatial sound

The book suits researchers, graduate students, and specialist engineers in acoustics, audio, and signal processing.
