Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Acoustic sensing is sensing in air using sound waves. As sensing technology, various kinds of signals suchas light, radio waves, sound waves, and lasers are used. Sound waves have a longer wavelength than light and radiowaves, and physical phenomena called diffraction are likely to occur. In this research, we focused on the phenomenonof diffraction by sound waves, and tried to detect objects in invisible regions that can not be detected by visiblelight. In the experiment, by using a parametric speaker that can reproduce low-frequency sound waves with sharpdirectivity, it is possible to prevent SNR reduction and multi-path fading etc., generate diffraction phenomena bysound waves, and detect objects in the invisible region . Then, the optimal coding signal for object detection in theinvisible area in airborne sound is sought, and the signal coding method is compared and evaluated.
