Time-domain Beamforming for Room Acoustics Analysis based on Reverberant Field Estimation

ICASSP 2025accepted

This paper introduces a beamforming technique for room acoustic analysis, contrasting from most conventional methods by operating in the time domain rather than the frequency domain. The technique estimates the direction of arrival of early reflections and the reverberant field using impulse respons…

Dispersive Grid-free Orthogonal Matching Pursuit for Modal Estimation in Ocean Acoustics

ICASSP 2020accepted

Considering low-frequency acoustic sources, shallow-water environments act as modal dispersive waveguides. In this context, the signal can be described as a sum of a few modal components, each of them propagating with its own wavenumber. When dealing with broadband sources, wavenumber-frequency (f-k…

Simultaneous coded plane wave imaging in ultrasound: Problem formulation and constraints

ICASSP 2017accepted

In this paper, we propose a new emission strategy in the context of plane wave imaging. Plane wave imaging indeed implies compounding in order to preserve a good image quality. Such compounding is usually obtained using multiple, successive emissions, which in turn yields a decrease of the frame rat…

Sparse deconvolution for moving-source localization

ICASSP 2016accepted

In this paper, we propose a method for moving-source localization based on beamforming output and on sparse representation of the source positions. The goal of this method is to achieve spatial deconvolution of the beamforming, to provide accurate source localization for pass-by experiments. To perf…
