We first analyze the uniform microphone array and give the design for microphone array applied in the hand-free speech recognition. Combining the traditional direction finding technique of MUltiple SIgnal Classification (MUSIC) with the focusing matrix method, we improve the resolving power of the microphone array for multiple speech sources.As one application of finding Direction of Arrival (DOA), a new microphone-array system for noise reduction is proposed. The new system is based on maximum likelihood estimate technique which reconstruct superimposed signals from different directions by using DOA information. The DOA information is got in terms of focusing MUSIC method which has been proven to have high performance than conventional MUSIC method on speaker localization[1].展开更多
