The Contribution Of Interaural Intensity Differences To The Horizontal Auditory Localization Of Narrow Bands Of Noise, Matthew H. Bakke

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

Brief bursts of third-octave bands of noise (center frequencies at 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 kHz) and band pass noises with different degrees of low-frequency content (0.5 to 4.0 kHz, 1.0 to 4.0 kHz and 2.0 to 4.0 kHz) were recorded binaurally from 17 different horizontal locations (90 degrees on the left to 90 degrees on the right in 11.25 degree steps) one meter from the ears of an anthropomorphic mannequin (KEMAR) in an anechoic room and a reverberant room. The recorded sounds were processed by attenuating or removing interaural intensity differences and presented to five normally hearing subjects through …
