| Research Abstract |
To reduce the carrier ultrasound of a parametric loudspeaker as much as possible, we first applied the phase-inversion technique to the loudspeaker and obtained good results on the reduction of carrier ultrasound pressures without deteriorating the acoustic characteristics of parametric sounds. We next focused on the realization of a new stereophonic audio system. To realize a new method of stereo reproduction that enables sound localization in a wider area and improves sound field reproduction for higher realistic sensation, we carried out sound localization tests using a two-channel parametric loudspeaker system. The main results show that sound images are localized in an area close to the center and are almost independent of the precedence effect.
