How to generate frequency response of mobile devices #6

Dear Sir this is a really cool project,I am an AI software engineer. My recent work requires knowledge of acoustics and structure, but I have never been exposed to it before. I need to generate a lot of mobile device impulse responses to generate data and then train the AI model. As described in the second section of the Appendix. I wonder if your program can generate some frequency curves for devices like Huawei Mate, iPhone , Samsung and smartspeaker and laptop?

Thanks!

Dear Sir, No, QSpeakers cannot do this. QSpeakers only predict bass frequency response of enclosures with large speakers.

But you can measure your mobile devices response curve by playing a swipe sinewave throught them from 20Hz to 20000Hz and capture the device response with a flat response microphone. Using swipe sinewave is equivalent to using impulsion. Check the QLoud project for this, maybe this an help.

Dear @be1

Thank you very much for your reply, it is very helpful to me. I am not familiar with the field of acoustics and structures, and I would like to ask you one more question: Do I need to measure in an anechoic chamber? From my limited knowledge, if I do not measure in an anechoic chamber, there will be interference from the impulse response of the house. But if I use an anechoic chamber, it will be too difficult to do. And what is a flat response microphone? Is it a calibration microphone? Can I buy it?

thanks!

Yes, ideally, in an anechoic chamber. Do not use a calibration microphone, use a measurement microphone.

Hi @be1 Thank you very much for your kindness. May I ask you another question: Do you know of any open source loudspeaker IR datasets (especially for portable devices like mobile phones and laptops)? I have only found IR datasets for microphones .

be1 commented 3 months ago

Sorry, I don't know. There are room impulse responses over the web, but I don't know about mobile devices loudspeakers (output), or microphones (input) IR.
