Introduction: Addressing Spatial Challenges in MEMS Microphones
As MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) microphones become increasingly prevalent in smartphones, wearables, and IoT devices, their compact size and low power consumption make them ideal for modern applications. However, the internal chamber structures housing these microphones, especially those with openings, can introduce resonance effects that distort frequency response and degrade voice quality.
Impact of Chamber Resonance on Frequency Response
The internal chamber of a MEMS microphone, comprising front and back cavities, significantly influences its frequency response. For instance, the volume and opening size of the front chamber affect high-frequency response, while the back chamber design impacts low-frequency performance and overall sensitivity.
Studies have shown that improper chamber design can lead to peaks or dips in the frequency response curve, adversely affecting voice recognition accuracy and audio naturalness.
Digital Filter Compensation Strategy
To mitigate frequency response distortions caused by chamber resonance, researchers have proposed using digital filters for compensation. By modeling the microphone’s frequency response, appropriate digital filters can be designed to correct these deviations during signal processing, restoring the original audio characteristics.
Advantages of this approach include:
- High Flexibility: Applicable to various devices without hardware modifications.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Implemented through software, reducing design complexity and cost.STMicroelectronics+7Knowles+7diyAudio+7
