title: A one-step patch near-field acoustical holography procedure.
abstract: When performing holography measurements over a limited area of a source, the hologram pressure typically remains finite at the edge of the measurement aperture. Patch near-field acoustical holography (NAH) has been developed specifically to mitigate the effects related to that windowing. In iterative patch NAH, the source distribution is reconstructed in two steps: first, the partially measured sound field is extended iteratively, and then the extended pressure is projected onto the source surface by using conventional NAH procedures. In the present work, a one-step procedure for performing that combined task is described. In this approach, the acoustical property to be reconstructed on a surface of interest is related to the partially measured pressure on the hologram surface in terms of sampling and bandlimiting matrices, and the reconstructed result is obtained by finding the regularized least squares solution of the latter relation; a procedure for determining the cutoff wave number of the bandlimiting matrix without a priori knowledge of the signal bandwidth is suggested. The proposed procedure was validated by using a synthetic sound field created by a point-driven, simply supported plated.
