Acoustic pulse reflectometry for measurement of the vocal tract and application in voice synthesis

In this thesis, the basic theory describing wave propagation in tubes of varying cross-section is outlined, together with a review of how the time domain technique of APR can be used to measure the input impulse response of a tubular object, such as the vocal tract, from which the bore profile can b...
