Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We are focusing on Head-related transfer functions on the median plane and anthropometric parameters. Localization tests show that accuracy of the sound localization in the median plane is better for lower sound sources than upper sound sources. This paper reports the influence of body posture and pinna shape on sound localization of a lower sound source in the median plane. Measurements using pinna replica show that both of HRTF and pinna-related transfer function have two common special notches which vary their frequencies depending on source position.
