Crosstalk cancellation for reverberant acoustic fields

One or more computer-readable media storing instructions for generating crosstalk cancellation (CTC) filters for a reverberant acoustic environment having multiple audio zones that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of:

• determining, based on a CTC simulation model of an acoustic environment:
• a first set of frequency responses for respective positions proximate to one or more speakers located in the acoustic environment, and
• a second set of frequency responses for respective listening positions in the acoustic environment;
• generating, based on the first set of frequency responses and the second set of frequency responses, an acoustic environment transfer function matrix for the acoustic environment;
• and
• generating, based on the acoustic environment transfer function matrix, a set of CTC filters for a set of speakers in the acoustic environment.

A system for generating crosstalk cancellation (CTC) filters for a reverberant acoustic environment having multiple audio zones, comprising:

• a memory storing a for generating CTC simulation model of an acoustic environment;
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory that implements the CTC simulation model by performing the steps of:
• determining, based on the CTC simulation model:
• a first set of frequency responses for respective positions proximate to one or more speakers located in the acoustic environment, and
• a second set of frequency responses for respective listening positions in the acoustic environment;
• generating, based on the first set of frequency responses and the second set of frequency responses, an acoustic environment transfer function matrix for the acoustic environment;
• and
• generating, based on the acoustic environment transfer function matrix, a set of CTC filters for a set of speakers in the acoustic environment.
