    Baffle Design, Diffraction, Radiation Pattern, and Stereo Imaging

    Uploaded by

    Pio Fantin
    The document discusses baffle design, diffraction, radiation patterns, and stereo imaging related to light sources and acoustic radiation. It covers concepts like omni-directional and controlled directivity radiation patterns, spherical acoustics harmonics, monopole and dipole directivity, and the effects of baffle size. It references papers from Bell Labs and books on acoustics and transducers. Diagrams show different speaker designs including omni-directional, hybrid, and dipole configurations. There is discussion of wide and neutral sound dispersion, cone breakup, and an H-frame dipole woofer design.
