This thesis addresses the development and enhancement of Multiactuator Panels (MAPs) with emphasis on the application to Wave Field Synthesis (WFS) reproduction. MAPs can be used alternatively to dynamic loudspeaker arrays for WFS with added benefits. However, since MAPs are panels of finite extent, excited mechanically on several points, there are structural and geometric issues that must be addressed to guarantee that all exciters are acting evenly to form an effective loudspeaker array for WFS. This aim is addressed by means of a methodology for the analysis of sound field radiation in the space-time domain that has been proposed and validated in this thesis. This research has produced a number of key conclusions. The proposed ... toggle 7 keywords
