摘要
In this correspondence, synthetic microphone signals generated with the image model technique are used to study the effects of room reverberation on the performance of the maximum likelihood (ML) estimator of the time delay, in which the estimate is obtained by maximizing the cross correlation between filtered versions of the microphone signals. The results underscore the adverse effects of reverberation on the bias, variance and probability of anomaly of the ML estimator. Explanations of these effects are provided.
