Estimation of the location of sound sources is usually done using microphone
arrays. Such settings provide an environment where we know the difference
between the received signals among different microphones in the terms of phase
or attenuation, which enables localization of the sound sources. In our
solution we exploit the properties of the room transfer function in order to
localize a sound source inside a room with only one microphone. The shape of
the room and the position of the microphone are assumed to be known. The design
guidelines and limitations of the sensing matrix are given. Implementation is
based on the sparsity in the terms of voxels in a room that are occupied by a
source. What is especially interesting about our solution is that we provide
localization of the sound sources not only in the horizontal plane, but in the
terms of the 3D coordinates inside the room
