Error Calibration

In the microphone array, the phase error of each microphone causes a deviation in sound source localization. At present, there is a lack of effective methods for phase error calibration of the entire microphone array. In order to solve this problem, a phase mismatch calculation method based on multiple sound sources is proposed. This method requires collecting data from multiple sound sources in turn, and constructing a nonlinear equation setthrough the signal delay and the geometric relationship between the microphones and the sound source positions. The phase mismatch of each microphone can be solved from the nonlinear equation set. Taking the single frequency signal as an example, the feasibility of the method is verified by experiments in a semi-anechoic chamber. The phase mismatches are compared with the calibration results of exchanging microphone. The difference of the phase error values measured by the two methods is small. The experiment also shows that the accuracy of sound source localization by beamforming is improved. The method is efficient for phase error calibration of arrays with a large number of microphones.
