Introduction: This Technical Note presents directional data on JBLs high-frequency horns in isobar form for the benefit of those users who have access to various mapping programs for louds

2、peaker array layout. Recent JBL specification sheets for new horns have included such data in spherical polar projection. In this Technical Note, that same data will be presented, along with similar information on our larger Bi-Radial horns. Additionally, we will present the isobars in rectangular p

3、rojection. 2. How the Information was Gathered: Polar information is measured on a spherical sur- face, which is three-dimensional, and is plotted in two dimensions. Anyone familiar with map-making will be aware of distortions when such transformations are made. Figure 1 shows the method of presenta

4、tion chosen by JBL. The HF horn may be imagined as being located at the center of a sphere and pointed toward one of the poles. Data in this form can be used directly in the mapping programs of McCarthy (1), Becker (2), and the spherical mapping method of Prohs and Harris (3). The Altec mapping meth

5、od (4) is different, as shown in Figure 2. In this case, we can imagine an HF horn located at the center of a sphere and pointed at the equator. The sur- face is unwrapped and flattened as shown, in a manner similar to a Mercator projection map. This mapping method produces isobars in rectangular co

6、ordinates. All three- to two-dimensional mapping methods will result in at least one point on the measurement sphere being mapped into a line or a circle. In the JBL spherical mapping method, the point 180 degrees off the major axis will map into a circle. This is of little consequence, since we are

7、 not normally interested in performance so far off axis. In the Altec mapping method, points 90 degrees along the vertical axis will map into lines, and this may limit the representation, in that mapping method, of isobars in the -12 and -15 dB range. In the region of the major axis, the two mapping

8、 methods are quite similar. In fact, up to 50 degrees off axis, the two methods will not differ by more than 10% in angular error. In plotting the isobars in rectangular coordinates, we have made the necessary corrections so that points off-axis in the diagonal directions are properly repre- sented.

9、 We have included the -12 dB isobars, where possible, consistent with the limitations of the rectangular form. 3. The Isobars: Figures 3 through 9 present information on a wide variety of JBL HF devices. In all cases, the data was gathered by taking polar measurements around the device at 5-degree i

10、ncrements in both latitude and longitude. Figures 10 through 16 show the same information in rectangular form, taking into acount the limitations of that mapping method. For the large Bi-Radial horns, the data is presented on octave bands centered at 500 Hz, 1 kHz, and 2 kHz. The data at 2 kHz may b

11、e considered essentially the same as would be observed at 4 kHz and 8 kHz, con- sidering only the -3, -6, and -9 isobars. In actual use, the isobars will have to be altered in scale and transferred to the appropriate transparency overlays. References: 1. McCarthy, T G., Loudspeaker Arraysa Graphic M
