Abstract
A directional speaker system and an automatic set-up method thereof, whereby a steering angle of the directional speaker system is automatically set up. The method includes generating a plurality of signals, converting the plurality of signals into a plurality of sound beams that orient virtual speaker candidate positions using a directional speaker, extracting a physical value to determine directivity from each of the plurality of sound beams input to a microphone, and setting a steering angle of a relevant virtual speaker position by comparing the physical values of the sound beams to each other.
