Abstract
Spatial sensations include the localization, the subjective diffuseness (envelopment), and the apparent source width in the sound field. These are described by the multiple spatial factors extracted from the interaural cross-correlation function (IACF) for the signal arriving at two ears. As for the localization in the median plane, temporal factors extracted from the autocorrelation function (ACF) are also useful because the information arriving at two ears is same.
