Abstract
A test tone determination method includes picking up a test tone output from a speaker; calculating first and second distances from the speaker to first and second microphones and a distance difference between the first and second distances; determining whether or not the distance difference is smaller than or equal to a predetermined distance between the first and second microphones; determining amplitudes to be amplitudes of direct waves of the test tone, when the distance difference is smaller than or equal to the predetermined distance; performing scanning, with respect to an amplitude found later, on a portion corresponding to a portion near the amplitude found earlier, when the distance difference is larger than the predetermined distance; and determining an amplitude found in the portion corresponding to the portion near the amplitude found earlier and the amplitude found earlier to be amplitudes of the direct waves of the test tone.
