  2. Acoustical measurements and instrumentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustical_measurements...

    Analysis of sound and acoustics plays a role in such engineering tasks as product design, production test, machine performance, and process control. For instance, product design can require modification of sound level or noise for compliance with standards from ANSI, IEC, and ISO. The work might also involve design fine-tuning to meet market ...

  3. SWR meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SWR_meter

    An SWR meter does not measure the actual impedance of a load (the resistance and reactance), but only the mismatch ratio. To measure the actual impedance requires an antenna analyzer or other similar RF measuring device. For accurate readings, the SWR meter itself must also match the line's impedance (typically 50 or 75 Ohms).

  4. Standing wave ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_wave_ratio

    Checking the SWR is a standard procedure in a radio station. Although the same information could be obtained by measuring the load's impedance with an impedance analyzer (or "impedance bridge"), the SWR meter is simpler and more robust for this purpose. By measuring the magnitude of the impedance mismatch at the transmitter output it reveals ...

  5. Audio system measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_system_measurements

    Audio system measurements are used to quantify audio system performance. These measurements are made for several purposes. Designers take measurements to specify the performance of a piece of equipment.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slotted_line

    Figure 1. Waveguide slotted line. Slotted lines are used for microwave measurements and consist of a movable probe inserted into a slot in a transmission line.They are used in conjunction with a microwave power source and usually, in keeping with their low-cost application, a low cost Schottky diode detector and VSWR meter rather than an expensive microwave power meter.

  8. Sound level meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_level_meter

    A sound level meter (also called sound pressure level meter (SPL)) is used for acoustic measurements. It is commonly a hand-held instrument with a microphone . The best type of microphone for sound level meters is the condenser microphone, which combines precision with stability and reliability. [ 1 ]

  9. Peak programme meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_programme_meter

    A peak programme meter (PPM) is an instrument used in professional audio that indicates the level of an audio signal. Different kinds of PPM fall into broad categories: True peak programme meter. This shows the peak level of the waveform no matter how brief its duration. Quasi peak programme meter (QPPM). This only shows the true level of the ...
