Abstract
A method for processing a sound signal including synchronously acquiring an input sound signal Sby means of at least two omnidirectional microphones, encoding the input sound signal Sin a sound data D format of the ambisonics type of order R, R being a natural number greater than or equal to one, the encoding step including a directivity optimisation sub-step carried out by means of filters of the Finite Impulse Response filter type. Each of the signals acquired by the microphones is filtered during the directivity optimisation sub-step by a FIR filter, then subtracted from an unfiltered version of each of the other signals in order to obtain N enhanced signals. The present invention also relates to a system for processing the sound signal.
