virtual source

virtual source

[′vər·chə·wəl ′sȯrs]
(acoustics)
A source of sound which is composed of the same material as that in which the sound propagates and which does not have sharply delineated boundaries; such sources include thermal sources (such as lightning and thermoacoustic arrays), turbulence (as in rocket and jet engines), and sound itself (as in a parametric acoustic array).

First, during an observation period it is necessary to determine spectra [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] of real signals [s.sub.i](t) from a real source and spectra [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] of a flipped analytic signal [s.sup.F.sub.i](t) from the virtual source. We can compute the flipped cross-power spectrum (or flipped spectrum) [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII], with no prefiltering, between a real signal [s.sub.i](t) and a virtual sensor signal [s.sup.F.sub.i](t) based on
