      Abstract:

      Acoustic waves in air are the carrier of human voice. The production, transmission, and receiving of human voice follow the laws of acoustics. The theory of acoustic waves is a very mature branch of physics. There are excellent monographs and textbooks on this subject [63, 72]. In this Chapter, we will review the basic theory and facts of acoustic waves in air as the background information for the understanding of human voice.
