Image method for efficiently simulating small‐room acoustics

Image methods are commonly used for the analysis of the acoustic properties of enclosures.
In this paper we discuss the theoretical and practical use of image techniques for simulating,
on a digital computer, the impulse response between two points in a small rectangular room.
The resulting impulse response, when convolved with any desired input signal, such as
speech, simulates room reverberation of the input signal. This technique is useful in signal
processing or psychoacoustic studies. The entire process is carried out on a digital computer�…
