Abstract

Microphone array-based beamforming algorithms are widely used in sound source identification, fault diagnosis, and radar communication because of their excellent performance. However, their limited spatial resolution and high dynamic side flap level seriously affect the recognition accuracy. To explore a high-performance beamforming sound source identification algorithm, the microphone array compressed beamforming underdetermined equation is solved by extending the iterative threshold. A sound source identification model is established, and a new compressed beamforming (CSB-II) algorithm is proposed. Numerical simulations show that the CSB-II algorithm can effectively reduce the starting frequency of sound source identification and has high sound source identification accuracy. The effects of signal-to-noise ratio, sound source distance, and array number on sound source identification accuracy are analyzed separately. The laws affecting sound source identification accuracy are derived from guiding actual sound source measurements.
