Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé de génération d'un signal sonore directionnel (y(k)) à partir de premier et deuxième signaux sonores (x 1 (k), x 2 (k)), qui sont générés par un premier et un deuxième microphone (M1, M2), séparés par une distance (D). Le procédé comporte les étapes consistant à générer des premier et deuxième signaux sonores différentiels (x f (k), X b,DEQ (k)) en fonction des premier et deuxième signaux sonores (x 1 (k), x 2 (k)), et à générer le signal sonore directionnel (y(k)) selon un diagramme de réponse directionnel dépendant de la fréquence en fonction des premier et deuxième signaux sonores différentiels (x f (k), X b,DEQ (k)). La génération du deuxième signal sonore différentiel (X b,DEQ (k)) comporte l'étape consistant à générer un signal de différence (xb(k)) des premier et deuxième signaux sonores (x 1 (k), x 2 (k)) et un traitement sélectif en fréquence dépendant d'un angle d'orientation (α) qui indique une direction souhaitée d'atténuation maximale du diagramme de réponse directionnel dépendant de la fréquence, le traitement sélectif en fréquence réglant la direction réelle d'atténuation maximale du diagramme de réponse directionnel dépendant de la fréquence de façon à correspondre à l'angle d'orientation (α) sensiblement indépendant de la fréquence (ω) sur la gamme de fréquence du signal sonore directionnel (y(k)).
