Method and Apparatus for Blind Signal Extraction

摘要

An apparatus for extracting a signal from convolutive mixtures includes a receiving unit which includes two or more receivers and receives a signal; a transfer function calculation unit which calculates transfer functions for demixing; and a demixing unit which demixes the received signal using the calculated transfer functions. The transfer function is determined such that a signal is extracted from a source closest to the receivers, and is calculated on the basis of a transfer function for a path to each receiver being approximated to a delta function as closer to the source.
