Echolocating bats adjust sonar call features and head/ear position as they track moving targets in the presence of clutter

Michael G. T. Wikinson, XingYao (York) Wang et al.

in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America

Echolocating bats often encounter clutter as they pursue insect prey. To probe the adaptive behaviors bats employ to mitigate the effects of clutter, this study quantified echolocation call features ...

A distributed adaptive wave field synthesis system

Tianyou Li, Sipei Zhao et al.

in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America

The conventional wave field synthesis (WFS) theory is based on the free field assumption and the performance of systems based on it deteriorates significantly in reverberant environments. By ...
