Loud Speaker Equalization Project Conclusions

Summary: ELEC 301 Project Conclusions

Conclusion: Get a Better Mic

Using white noise and MATLAB’s FIR design tools successfully implements an inverse filter on TI’s 3245 EVM which flattens the systems frequency response. Unfortunately, when music was played through the exemplar speaker, various high frequencies would be over-amplified, creating hissing. Throughout the design of its inverse filter a relatively low end microphone, designed primarily to pick up speech signals, was used. After comparing what the frequency response of our system looks like compared to how it actually sounds, it’s clear it was the microphone itself that was causing the attenuation of higher frequencies. Thus by amplifying higher frequencies, the inverse filter flattened the frequency response of the system but spoilt the frequency response of the speaker.

Definition of a lens

Lenses

A lens is a custom view of the content in the repository. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see content through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

What is in a lens?

Lens makers point to materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

Who can create a lens?

Any individual member, a community, or a respected organization.

What are tags? tag icon

Tags are descriptors added by lens makers to help label content, attaching a vocabulary that is meaningful in the context of the lens.
