Abstract
A system and method for measuring and calibrating a time-synchronized network of loudspeaker participants. Each loudspeaker participant has a plurality of microphone arrays. The system and method generates a stimulus signal at each network participant and records precise sensor data including start and end timestamps of the stimulus signal. The sensor data is compiled to estimate locations of loudspeaker participants within the time-synchronized network to establish a global frame of reference for all of the loudspeaker components in the network.
