Multiple acoustic sources localization using incident Signal Power comparison

We present a novel approach to locate multiple acoustic sources in far-field environments, in order to solve an interesting problem in different application domain, such as: audio surveillance systems and soundscape analysis frameworks. This approach aims at finding a solution to the ambiguities in Direction Of Arrivals (DOAs) combination caused by simultaneous multiple sources. The algorithm is based on two steps: the separation of the sources by means of beamforming techniques and the comparison of the Incident Signal Power (ISP) spectrum by means of a spectral distance measure. We implemented a prototype, composed by two linear arrays, that has been successfully tested in a real noisy environment.
