2. Colors of noise - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colors_of_noise

   For example, with a white noise audio signal, the range of frequencies between 40 Hz and 60 Hz contains the same amount of sound power as the range between 400 Hz and 420 Hz, since both intervals are 20 Hz wide. Note that spectra are often plotted with a logarithmic frequency axis rather than a linear one, in which case equal physical widths on ...

3. Audio noise measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_noise_measurement

   Audio noise measurement is a process carried out to assess the quality of audio equipment, such as the kind used in recording studios, broadcast engineering, and in-home high fidelity. In audio equipment noise is a low-level hiss or buzz that intrudes on audio output.

4. Noise pollution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_pollution

   Noise pollution, or sound pollution, is the propagation of noise or sound with potential harmful effects on humans and animals. The source of outdoor noise worldwide is mainly caused by machines, transport and propagation systems.

5. Noise reduction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_reduction

   Noise reduction is the process of removing noise from a signal. Noise reduction techniques exist for audio and images. Noise reduction algorithms may distort the signal to some degree. Noise rejection is the ability of a circuit to isolate an undesired signal component from the desired signal component, as with common-mode rejection ratio.

6. Health effects from noise - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_effects_from_noise

   Annoyance effects of noise are minimally affected by demographics, but fear of the noise source and sensitivity to noise both strongly affect the 'annoyance' of a noise. [42] Sound levels as low as 40 dB(A) can generate noise complaints [43] and the lower threshold for noise producing sleep disturbance is 45 dB(A) or lower. [44]

7. Noise dosimeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_dosimeter

   A noise or sound dose is the amount of sound a person is exposed to in a day. The dose is represented by a percentage. A noise dose of 100% means that a person has exceeded the permissible amount of noise. Any noise exposure after the 100% noise dose may damage hearing. The exchange rate is the rate at which exposure accumulates.

8. Sound intensity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_intensity

   Sound intensity, also known as acoustic intensity, is defined as the power carried by sound waves per unit area in a direction perpendicular to that area, also called the sound power density and the sound energy flux density. [2] The SI unit of intensity, which includes sound intensity, is the watt per square meter (W/m 2).

9. Noise (signal processing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_(signal_processing)

   Noise (audio), such as "hiss" or "hum", in audio signals Background noise, due to spurious sounds during signal capture; Comfort noise, added to voice communications to fill silent gaps; Electromagnetically induced noise, audible noise due to electromagnetic vibrations in systems involving electromagnetic fields; Noise (video), such as "snow"
