KEMAR HATS Head Orientation Directivity
Data Set

March 21, 2022

Overview
The KEMAR head orientations directivity data set consists of full spherical
directivity measurements of a KEMAR HATS with the head oriented at fourteen
different head orientations measured with a a = 0.97m array. The sampling
density is based on a dual-equiangular sampling consistent with the AES 5◦
sampling standard, with the omission of the south pole (θ = 180◦ ) measurement.
Thus, each spherical directivity has 36 polar angle θ samples and 72 azimuthal
angle ϕ samples. The data is presented for 22 1/3rd octave bands, ranging from
80 Hz to 10 kHz. The fourteen head orientations are in 5◦ steps starting from 0◦
to 40◦ , and then in 10◦ steps from 40◦ to 90◦ . In addition, far-field corrections
based on narrowband spherical harmonic expansions are available for the 500
Hz and below 1/3rd octave bands.
The data is currently available in two formats. The first is tabulated data
saved in the files KEMAR head orientation directivity.csv and
KEMAR head orientation directivity ff corrections.csv, with the former contain-
ing the data with no far-field corrections and the latter containing the data with
far-field corrections. The tabulated values are based on re-sampling the directiv-
ities in a rotated configuration, as many architectural acoustics packages expect
that the north pole measurement (θ = 0◦ ) is the on-axis position. See Fig. 1
for a visualization of the different sampling configurations.
The second file format is a .mat file, data.mat, which contains the following
fields:
• Q: (36 × 72 × 22 × 14) directivity factor function of measured data
• Qc: (36 × 72 × 22 × 14) directivity factor function of measured data with
far-field corrections

• polar: (36 × 72) polar sampling positions (in radians)


• azimuth: (36 × 72) azimuthal sampling positions (in radians)
• f: (22 × 1) 1/3rd octave bands

1
• orientations: (14 × 1) head orientation angles (in degrees)
The .mat file is based on the original sampling configuration.
