Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) It has been reported that the combination of a comb filter and a frequency shifter can reduce the acoustic oscillation. In the present study, the comb filter and the frequency shifter were processed simultaneously by FIR filters that used Hilbert transformer. The FIR filters were implemented on the FPGA board with the audio CODEC. A microphone and a loudspeaker were connected to the CODEC so that the oscillation margin could be measured. When the combination of the comb filter and the frequency shifter was employed, the oscillation margin as much as 12dB was achieved. It was confirmed that the method was effective especially against the oscillation at the higher frequencies.
