title: Interaural cross-correlation coefficients in stereo-reproduced sound fields.
abstract: Interaural cross-correlation coefficients (ICCCs) were measured in stereo-reproduced fields where a KEMAR (Knowles electric manikin for acoustic research) was located. These ICCCs were then compared with those in an ideal, diffuse sound field. The ICCCs in a reverberant field are not reproduced accurately using a conventional two-channel stereo-reproduction technique. In four-channel stereo reproduction, however, the ICCCs can, for the most part, be reproduced accurately as in an ideal, diffuse sound field. Some experimental results are also shown for binaural discrimination of the ICCCs.
