Designing Near-Field MVDR Acoustic Beamfomers for Voice User Interfaces

Document Thumbnail

We present an analysis and design recommendations for a reduced computational complexity minimum variance distortionless response(MVDR) beamforming microphone. An overview of MVDR beamforming is given then decomposed into a generalized implementation to aid mapping to a microcontroller with some discussion of optimizations for real-world performance.
