Method and apparatus for compensating for near-field effect in speaker array system
A method and apparatus for compensating for a near-field effect in a speaker array system is provided. The method includes generating a virtual sound signal at a position, which is separated from a speaker array by a predetermined distance, based on an input sound signal, and outputting the generated virtual sound signal using the speaker array. Therefore, the near-field effect, in which a sound radiated from a speaker array is distorted to have non-uniform radiation characteristics near the speaker array, can be compensated for. Consequently, the method and apparatus can provide a stable sound field, into which non-uniform radiation characteristics uniformly converge, to a listener.
