A 3D sound source localization (SSL) technique for multiple spherical arrays is proposed. Spherical arrays have been popularly used for direction of arrival (DoA) estimation, which serves as important prior knowledge for source separation, dereverberation, and binaural rendering for VR applications. In this work, a parametric 3D SSL technique is proposed that can detect multiple sources using multiple spherical array recordings. From the enriched information by using multiple arrays, we show that the parametric estimation of 3D positions is possible without scanning candidate positions in 3D space. To mitigate the problem of the ambiguous association between DoAs estimated from different arrays, a total covariance matrix including both auto- and cross-covariance matrices between arrays is utilized such that DoAs from arrays are automatically paired to uniquely localize 3D source positions. The joint parameter estimation is based on the generalized joint Schur decomposition of multiple matrices combined with a geometric projection robustly guiding the convergence of the proposed iteration algorithm. Simulations conducted in anechoic and reverberant room conditions reveal that the proposed technique can accurately determine multiple source positions in 3D space without ambiguities.
