We develop an analytical solution to the problem of scattering of sound from a sphere in the vicinity of an infinite plane. Using this solution we study the influence of a nearby scattering rigid surface, on a spherical model for the HRTF}, keywords = {Acoustic scattering, acoustic signal processing, acoustic wave reflection, acoustic wave scattering, architectural acoustics, audio signal processing, Biological system modeling, boundary effect modeling, Computer interfaces, Ear, Educational institutions, Frequency, Head related transfer function, HRTF, HUMANS, infinite plane, Laboratories, Nails, Raman scattering, rigid surface, room environment, sound pressure level, sound scattering, spatial audio, sphere, spherical model, Transfer functions, wall influence}, isbn = {0-7803-7041-4}, doi = {10.1109/ICASSP.2001.940373}, author = {Gumerov, Nail A. and Duraiswami, Ramani} }
