Abstract: The sound radiation characteristic is a feature of instru- mental sound which contributes to the perception of a cer- tain source extent or apparent source width (ASW) even under anechoic conditions. In a study physical parame- ters are derived or adopted from room acoustical inves- tigations, based on psychoacoustic considerations, which are assumed to be related to the ASW. Linear regression between some parameters and the physical source extent (width) exhibit a significant (p < 0.05) correlation. Multi- ple regressions with combinations of a monaural and a bin- aural parameter even reveal highly significant (p < 0.01) relations. As they correlate with the physical source extent, these parameters are assumed to be suitable for the inves- tigation of perceived source extent in a listening test with artificially created sound radiations under preparation.
Keywords: apparent source width, musical instruments, sound radiation characteristics, source width perception, spatial hearing
