Abstract

A method for estimating the acoustic reverberations in an environment comprising the following steps: a measurement step in which one acoustic signal emitted in the environment is captured; a step for determination of acoustic energy decay rate distribution during which an acoustic energy decay rate distribution is determined from the acoustic signal captured in step (a); an estimation step during which a reverberation time and a reverberation level of sound in the environment are estimated by regression from the characteristic function of the acoustic energy decay rate distribution determined in step (b).
