Loudspeaker System for Reproduction of Low Frequencies with Directional Radiation
Skvaril, Šimon ; Husník, Libor (referee) ; Schimmel, Jiří (advisor)
Final product of this work is design of speaker baffle which will have directional radiation at low frequencies. In the course of the work, propagation of sound waves and their beaviour at obstacles are described. The computational method FDTD and the K-wave toolkit for MATLAB, which uses this method, are described. In MATLAB a virtual model of speaker baffle is created and proposed solution is verified. Next step is creation of scaled model of speaker baffle on which agreement of theoretical computations with real-world measurment is verified. Final step is creation of prototype of speaker baffle,, whose parameters are measured, including polar response.

Design of Net-Based Virtual Collaborative Musical Instrument
Liudkevich, Denis ; Kiska, Tomáš (referee) ; Kavan, Jan (advisor)
The aim of this work was to create an online platform for multi-user sound creation with original sound synthesis tools. The educational context of the application was also taken into account by hiding the controls of the sound parameters behind the subconsciously known physical phenomena and the game form of the application. A substantial part of the logic and all graphics of the instruments is written in the JavaScript programming language and its library p5.js. It is located on the client side and communicates with the Node.js-based server via a web socket. The audio part is on another server in the SuperCollider environment, it is transmitted via IceCast and communicates with the main OSC message server. The application contains 3 instruments for generating sounds and one effects module. Each instrument is designed for multiple users and requires their cooperation. Acceptable transmission speeds and minimum computational demands have been achieved by optimizing the instrument's internal algorithms, the way in which the graphic content is displayed and the appropriate routing of the individual sound modules. The sound is specific for each instrument. The instruments in the application are tuned and designed so that the user can both achieve interesting sound results himself and play his role as a whole with others. Methods such as granular synthesis, chaotic oscillators, string instrument modeling, filter combinations, and so on are used to generate sound. Great emphasis in the development of the application was placed on the separation of roles, simultaneous control of one instrument by several players and communication of users through playing the instruments and text expression - chat. An important part is also a block for displaying descriptive information.

Noise map in GIS
Awadová, Thuraya ; Čížek, Martin (referee) ; Rozman, Jiří (advisor)
The aim of this thesis is to create a noise map in a geographic information system. First of all, physical features of sound and the basics concerning the spatial, physiological and atmospheric acoustics domain will be introduced. Furthermore, we will analyse noise and its possible influence on the health of people. Substantial part of this thesis will be devoted to the methodology of noise measurement in urban agglomerations and to the issue of creating noise maps. The methodology of noise measurement in a particular area will be determined on the basis of the theoretical background. Geographic information system ArcView 9.2 from the ARCDATA firm (Ltd.) will be used for creating the noise map. The final noise map will be compared to the current hygienic limits. For comparison reasons an analysis of noise map using software CadnaA, which is used in professional analysis of noise studies, will be included in this thesis too.

Tube Microphone
Škoda, Adam ; Šotner, Roman (referee) ; Staněk, Miroslav (advisor)
The presented thesis deals with a tube microphone using a condenser microphone capsule for sound capturing. Moreover, two essential aspects of a tube microphone – the basis of its operation and its design – are also discussed in this thesis. In the designed microphone, there is a vacuum tube known as ECC81. This vacuum tube is used as an amplifying element of an input sound signal. This paper also includes the choice of the most suitable microphone circuit, its modification and the design of a voltage source used for feeding and heating the vacuum tube. Some appropriate simulations were applied to find out the functionality of all designed parts of the microphone system. Following step was the practical realization of all microphone parts as well as the activation and the complete parameters and characteristics measurements of realized microphone system. After the provided measurements, the microphone was compared to equivalent commercial products. Evidently, the realized microphone is qualitatively similar to other commercial products. Presented thesis also contains the list of components and PCBs.

Acoustic diagnostics of combustion engines operating conditions
Závorka, Dalibor ; Prokop, Aleš (referee) ; Zubík, Martin (advisor)
The goal of this bachelor thesis is to hand over a compact overview of methods and today’s available equipment for the acoustic diagnostics of combustion engines. There are described the basic principles of diagnostics and acoustic diagnostics including definition of their basic terms. Work further deals with the description of methods and accessories of acoustic diagnostics and explains principles of their usage. Final chapter is dedicated to detailed description of the most common sound expressions of engine, signalling occurred or oncoming failure. Explaining the origins of particular sound, what can be its consequences and how to prevent these problems.

Determination of the Material Acoustic Impedance
Vozárová, Juliana ; Řehák, Kamil (referee) ; Prokop, Aleš (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the determination of the material acoustic absorption in an impedance tube. The aim of the work is to propose a measuring experiment and to design measuring device with the intention of reducing costs. The aim is to carry out a measuring experiment on a manufactured measuring device. The results of the experiment are evaluated in terms of meeting the requirements formeasuring device. The results of the tested materials are compared with the values from the supplier.

Agreements and Disagreements between Automatic and Human Speaker Recognition
Valenta, Jakub ; Matějka, Pavel (referee) ; Rohdin, Johan Andréas (advisor)
Tato práce se zabývá problémem rozpoznáváním mluvčího. Uvedený pojem je definován a doplněn o jednotlivé metody, které s ním souvisí. Cílem práce je poukázat na shody a rozdíly mezi lidským a automatickým procesem rozpoznávání mluvčího. V úvodu práce jsou popsány teoretické poznatky z obou zmíněných oblastí, tj. na jaké aspekty lidské řeči se zaměřuje člověk, resp. automatický systém. Následně je provedeno několik experimentů, které mají za úkol srovnat tyto dvě metody. Tyto experimenty jsou vyhodnoceny tak, že je možné pozorovat, které testovací úlohy dokáže lépe vyřešit člověk, aby následně bylo možné tyto poznatky použít ke zlepšení funkce automatického systému. V závěru práce je takovýto návrh na zlepšení automatického systému předveden a otestován. Testování proběhlo úspěšně a byla zaznamenána vyšší přesnost při vyhodnocování. Takový výsledek tedy může být užitý v dalších výzkumech a umožnit tak další vývoj v oblasti automatického rozpoznávání mluvčích.

Unknown.mp3
Ščudla, Marek ; Doležel, Matěj (referee) ; Šrámek, Jan (advisor)
My bachelor thesis is my next music project, followed by instalation and merchandise. I was solving the questions about trends, genre and its boundaries. I was inspired by past and I was trying to fit it into contemporary context.

Microphone array application
Toman, Vít ; Hanák, Pavel (referee) ; Fedra, Zbyněk (advisor)
Master’s thesis deals with description of issues of reading spatial audio signals using microphone array. Basic method of beamforming (Delay and Sum) is characterized on basis of chosen conception of the microphone array. Specific issues of audio detection and digital signal processing of converted audio signals are characterized and some ways how to solve the issues are adumbrated. Features and limitations of chosen ARM processor in the digital processing of multiple audio signals are described. Especially features and limitations of an internal A/D converter from the perspective of the beamforming are described.
