Abstract:
A method for estimating the acoustic reverberations in an environment comprising the following steps: a measurement step in which one acoustic signal emitted in the environment is captured; a step for determination of acoustic energy decay rate distribution during which an acoustic energy decay rate distribution is determined from the acoustic signal captured in step (a); an estimation step during which a reverberation time and a reverberation level of sound in the environment are estimated by regression from the characteristic function of the acoustic energy decay rate distribution determined in step (b).

Claim (Index 9):
A device for estimating the acoustic reverberations in an environment comprising:\n at least a measurement device for capturing at least one acoustic signal emitted in the environment; at least a processor adapted to:\n determination an acoustic energy decay rate distribution from the acoustic signal captured by the means of measurement, and for determining the characteristic function of the acoustic energy decay rate distribution; \n estimate a characteristic reverberation time and a characteristic reverberation level of the sound in the environment from data representative of the acoustic energy decay rate distribution, where the regression is done with reference to: reference characteristic functions representative respectively of several acoustic energy decay rate distributions;\n reference characteristic reverberation times corresponding to said reference characteristic functions; and \n reference characteristic reverberation levels corresponding to said reference characteristic functions.
