To estimate the direction of arrival (DOA) of multiple speakers with methods that use prototype transfer functions, frequency-dependent spatial spectra (SPS) are usually constructed. To make the DOA estimation robust, SPS from different frequencies can be combined. According to how the SPS are combined, frequency fusion mechanisms are categorized into narrowband, broadband, or speaker-grouped, where the latter mechanism requires a speaker-wise grouping of frequencies. For a binaural hearing aid setup, in this paper we propose an interaural time difference (ITD)-based speaker-grouped frequency fusion mechanism. By exploiting the DOA dependence of ITDs, frequencies can be grouped according to a common ITD and be used for DOA estimation of the respective speaker. We apply the proposed ITD-based speaker-grouped frequency fusion mechanism for different DOA estimation methods, namely the multiple signal classification, steered response power and a recently published method based on relative transfer function (RTF) vectors. In our experiments, we compare DOA estimation with different fusion mechanisms. For all considered DOA estimation methods, the proposed ITD-based speaker-grouped frequency fusion mechanism results in a higher DOA estimation accuracy compared with the narrowband and broadband fusion mechanisms.
