Abstract(in English) Human voice is sound made by the complex shapes and movement of vocal organ such as vocal cord, vocal tract, tongues and lips of mouth. In this study, we propose the logic circuit model of vocal tract that simulated the function of vocal organ, that recreate the virtual physical space that perform propagation, reflection and superposition of sound with logic circuit and aim to construct the model. At this time, we put density of air into pulse density in circuit. In addition, the methods that control sound rendered with pulse density are described. We verify operation of the produced circuit and gauge present synthesis processing of the circuit. As a result, we could confirm that synthesizing pulse density data was possible. However, we think that present superposition processing isn't sufficient, remediation of processing is needed for synthesizing voice.
