LOUDSPEAKER LOCALIZATION TECHNIQUES
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- receiving a plurality audio signals generated from sound received from a loudspeaker at a plurality of microphone locations;
generating location information that indicates a loudspeaker location for the loudspeaker based on the plurality of audio signals;
determining whether the generated location information matches a predetermined desired loudspeaker location for the loudspeaker; and
performing a corrective action with regard to the loudspeaker if the generated location information is determined to not match the predetermined desired loudspeaker location for the loudspeaker.

Abstract
Techniques for loudspeaker localization are provided. Sound is received from a loudspeaker at a plurality of microphone locations. A plurality of audio signals is generated based on the sound received at the plurality of microphone locations. Location information is generated that indicates a loudspeaker location for the loudspeaker based on the plurality of audio signals. Whether the generated location information matches a predetermined desired loudspeaker location for the loudspeaker is determined. A corrective action with regard to the loudspeaker is enabled to be performed if the generated location information is determined to not match the predetermined desired loudspeaker location for the loudspeaker.
