Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for measuring a distance to a sound source. The method includes combining sound source signals input through at least two microphones and generating at least two microphone output signals, and performing an operation on the generated microphone output signals and calculating a distance to a sound source by using the relationship between a result of the operation and a frequency of the input sound source signals. Accordingly, regardless of the strength of a sound source, the distance to a sound source can be measured.
