[42] Other studies have also suggested associations between noise levels in turbines and self-reported sleep disturbances in the nearby population, while adding that the ...
Simultaneous masking occurs when a sound is made inaudible by a noise or unwanted sound of the same duration as the original sound. [2] For example, a powerful spike at 1 kHz will tend to mask out a lower-level tone at 1.1 kHz. Also, two sine tones at 440 and 450 Hz can be perceived clearly when separated.
