W6 - The Power of Loudspeaker Models

Chair:
Wolfgang Klippel, Klippel GmbH - Dresden, Germany
Panelists:
Andrew Bright, Nokia Research Centre - Tampere, Finland
David Clark, DLC Design - Wixom, MI, USA
Jürgen Ringlstetter, Harman-Becker - Straubing, Germany
Richard Small, Harman-Becker - Martinsville, IN, USA

Abstract:
With the progress in loudspeaker modeling, new parameters are introduced that describe essential properties of loudspeakers more concisely. This workshop gives an overview of linear, nonlinear, and thermal models and their associated parameters. It will also show the practical application for loudspeaker design, diagnostics, system development, and active loudspeaker control. The validity of the models and reproducibility of parameters are discussed and illustrated with practical demonstrations. The workshop reveals the border line between established theory and unmodeled but significant effects, which are subject of further research.
