Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Five HRTF databases (ARI, CIPIC, CIT, LISTEN, and RIEC) are compared and analyzed in detail in this paper. The spectral peaks and notches above 5 kHz prominently contribute to the angle perception of a sound source in the median plane. A peak (P1) and two notches (N1 and N2) for the front direction (in the median plane) of all the subjects of the HRTFs are extracted from the early part of the head–related impulse responses. Then, t-test method is used to show that there is no significant difference between two databases among the five HRTF databases except ARI database, which has significant difference with others. The analysis of the anthropometric data of subject’s pinnae shows that there are significant differences in most of the anthropometric data except length of cymba conchae and tilt of pinna between three databases (ARI, CIPIC, and CIT).
