Apparatus and method for transmitting acoustic signal using human body

An apparatus and a method for transmitting an acoustic signal using a human body are disclosed. The apparatus for transmitting an acoustic signal includes: a pre-processor configured to process to compensate for the transfer distortion of the acoustic signal; a controller configured to control beamforming of the acoustic signal of which transfer distortion has been compensated; and a plurality of acoustic devices configured to transfer the acoustic signal to a human body touching the acoustic devices through beamforming according to a control of the controller. Therefore, it is possible to transmit acoustic signals using a human body as a medium with minimum signal loss and distortion.
