Abstract
A system is provided for positional based automatic gain control to adjust one or more dynamically configured combined microphone array in a shared 3D space. The system includes a combined microphone array including one or more of individual microphones and/or microphone arrays and a system processor communicating with the combined microphone array. The system processor is configured to obtain predetermined locations of the microphones throughout the shared 3D space, obtain predetermined coverage zone dimensions based on the locations of the microphones, populate the coverage zone dimensions with virtual microphones, identify locations of sound sources in the shared 3D space based on the virtual microphones, compute positional based gain control (PBGC) parameter values for virtual microphones based on the locations of the virtual microphones, and combine microphone signals into desired channel audio signals by applying the PBGC parameters to adjust microphones to control positional based microphone gains based on the location information of the sound sources.
