The parametric array loudspeaker (PAL) is a type of directional loudspeaker that utilizes the nonlinear acoustic effect to create the audible sound in an ultrasonic beam. Due to this unusual sound principle, it is inevitable that nonlinear distortion is incurred in the sound transmission of the PAL. Numerous modulation methods aiming to reduce the nonlinear distortion have been developed on the basis of the Berktay’s far-field solution, but they often perform in an unexpected manner. The degraded practical performance has been credited to the inaccuracy of the Berktay’s far-field solution. In this paper, we demonstrate the effect of the ultrasonic emitter on the distortion performance of the PAL and suggest that the Berktay’s far-field solution remains to be a good model equation.
