Distributed Acoustic Source Tracking in Noisy and Reverberant Environments With Distributed Microphone Networks

In this paper, an improved distributed unscented Kalman particle filter (DUKPF) is proposed for the problem of tracking a single moving acoustic source in noisy and reverberant environments with distributed microphone Engraved Wood Plaque networks.The conventional DUKPF employs the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) for its proposal of particle sampling
