- Delay line lengths
typically mutually prime
- For sufficiently high mode density,
must be sufficiently large.
- No ``ringing tones'' in the late impulse response
- No ``flutter''
Mean Free Path
where
is the total volume of the room, and
is total surface
area enclosing the room.
Regarding each delay line as a mean-free-path delay, the mean free
path length, in samples, is the average delay-line length:
where
= sound speed and
= sampling period.
This is only a lower bound because many reflections are
diffuse in real rooms, especially at high frequencies
(one plane-wave reflection scatters in many directions)
Mode Density Requirement
FDN order = sum of delay lengths:
- Order = number of poles
- All
poles are on the unit circle in the lossless prototype
- If uniformly distributed, mode density =
- Schroeder suggests that 0.15 modes per Hz
(when
second)
- Generalizing:
- Example: For
kHz and
second,
- Note that
is the length of the FIR filter
giving an exact implementation. Thus, recursive filtering is
about 7 times more efficient by this rule of thumb.
