Abstract
An apparatus for processing an input signal, wherein the input signal comprises a plurality of subsignals associated to discrete transmitters or receivers, wherein the discrete transmitters or receivers are disposed at predetermined geometrical positions with regard to a room, comprises a means for providing a plurality of wave-field components, wherein a superposition of the plurality of wave-field components results in a composite wave field, wherein the composite wave field can be propagated in the room, wherein the plurality of wave-field components are derived from the input signal by wave field decomposition based on orthogonal wave field base functions and the predetermined geometrical positions, a plurality of single filters, wherein a wave-field component of the plurality of wave-field components is associated to a single filter, wherein the single filter is formed to influence the associated wave-field component such that with regard to the plurality of single filters a plurality of filtered wave-field components representing a processed input signal are obtained on the output side.
