BRUDEX Database: Binaural Room Impulse Responses with Uniformly Distributed External Microphones

  • 1. University of Oldenburg

Description

There is an emerging need for comparable data for multi-microphone processing, particularly in acoustic sensor networks. However, commonly available databases are often limited in the spatial diversity of the microphones or only allow for particular signal processing tasks. In this paper, we present a database of acoustic impulse responses and recordings for a binaural hearing aid setup, 36 spatially distributed microphones spanning a uniform grid of (5x5) m^2 and 12 source positions. This database can be used for a variety of signal processing tasks, such as (multi-microphone) noise reduction, source localization, and dereverberation, as the measurements were performed using the same setup for three different reverberation conditions (T_60≈{310, 510, 1300} ms). The usability of the database is demonstrated for a noise reduction task using a minimum variance distortionless response beamformer based on relative transfer functions, exploiting the availability of spatially distributed microphones.
