1. A signal processing apparatus comprising:
- circuitry configured toperform filtering of a correction filter characteristic including a reverse characteristic of an output characteristic of a microphone on a signal acquired by the microphone; and
selectively output the signal acquired by the microphone or an output signal that has been filtered in accordance with the correction filter characteristic,wherein the correction filter characteristic is obtained by combining the reverse characteristic of the output characteristic of the microphone and a reverse characteristic of a sound characteristic based on at least one structure that diffracts or blocks a part of a sound wave from reaching a sound receiving face of the microphone, and wherein the acquired signal is acquired based on a part of the sound wave that is collected by the microphone.

8. A signal processing method being executed by a processor of a signal processing apparatus, the signal processing method comprising:
-
Performing, by the processor, filtering of a correction filter characteristic including a reverse characteristic of an output characteristic of a microphone on a signal acquired by the microphone; and selectively outputting the signal acquired by the microphone or an output signal that has been filtered in accordance with the correction filter characteristic, wherein the correction filter characteristic is obtained by combining the reverse characteristic of the output characteristic of the microphone and a reverse characteristic of a sound characteristic based on at least one structure that diffracts or blocks a part of a sound wave from reaching a sound receiving face of the microphone, and wherein the acquired signal is acquired based on a part of the sound wave that is collected by the microphone.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having embodied thereon a program, which when executed by a processor causes the processor to perform a signal processing method, the signal processing method comprising:
-
initiating filtering of a correction filter characteristic including a reverse characteristic of an output characteristic of a microphone on a signal acquired by the microphone; and selectively outputting the signal acquired by the microphone or an output signal that has been filtered in accordance with the correction filter characteristic, wherein the correction filter characteristic is obtained by combining the reverse characteristic of the output characteristic of the microphone and a reverse characteristic of a sound characteristic based on at least one structure that diffracts or blocks a part of a sound wave from reaching a sound receiving face of the microphone, and wherein the acquired signal is acquired based on a part of the sound wave that is collected by the microphone.

10. A signal processing apparatus comprising;
-
circuitry configured to form a plurality of signal processing units that process signals acquired by a plurality of microphones, wherein at least one of the plurality of signal processing units has a filter that performs filtering of a correction filter characteristic including a reverse characteristic of an output characteristic of a corresponding microphone of the plurality of microphones on a signal acquired by the corresponding microphone, and selectively output the signal acquired by the corresponding microphone or an output signal that has been filtered in accordance with the correction filter characteristic, wherein the correction filter characteristic is obtained by combining the reverse characteristic of the output characteristic of the corresponding microphone and a reverse characteristic of a sound characteristic based on at least one structure that diffracts or blocks a part of a sound wave from reaching a sound receiving face of the corresponding microphone, and wherein the acquired signals are acquired based on a part of the sound wave that is collected by the plurality of microphones. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)
