  2. Sound intensity level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_intensity

    being approximately the lowest sound intensity hearable by an undamaged human ear under room conditions. The proper notations for sound intensity level using this reference are L I /(1 pW/m 2) or L I (re 1 pW/m 2), but the notations dB SIL, dB(SIL), dBSIL, or dB SIL are very common, even if they are not accepted by the SI.

  3. Sound pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_pressure

    In other media, such as underwater, a reference level of 1 μPa is used. [9] These references are defined in ANSI S1.1-2013. [10] The main instrument for measuring sound levels in the environment is the sound level meter. Most sound level meters provide readings in A, C, and Z-weighted decibels and must meet international standards such as IEC ...

  4. Audio system measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_system_measurements

    Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), however, is the ratio between the noise floor and an arbitrary reference level or alignment level. In "professional" recording equipment, this reference level is usually +4 dBu (IEC 60268-17), though sometimes 0 dBu (UK and Europe – EBU standard Alignment level).

  5. A-weighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-weighting

    A graph of the A-, B-, C- and D-weightings across the frequency range 10 Hz – 20 kHz Video illustrating A-weighting by analyzing a sine sweep (contains audio). A-weighting is a form of frequency weighting and the most commonly used of a family of curves defined in the International standard IEC 61672:2003 and various national standards relating to the measurement of sound pressure level. [1]

  6. Sound transmission class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_transmission_class

    The STC number is derived from sound attenuation values tested at sixteen standard frequencies from 125 Hz to 4000 Hz. These Transmission Loss values are then plotted on a sound pressure level graph and the resulting curve is compared to a standard reference contour provided by the ASTM. [11]

  7. Line level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_level

    Voltage vs. time of sine waves at reference and line levels, with V RMS, V PK, and V PP marked for the +4dBu line level. A line level describes a line's nominal signal level as a ratio, expressed in decibels, against a standard reference voltage. The nominal level and the reference voltage against which it is expressed depend on the line level ...

  8. Sound level meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_level_meter

    A noise dosimeter (American) or noise dosemeter (British) is a specialized sound level meter intended specifically to measure the noise exposure of a person integrated over a period of time; usually to comply with Health and Safety regulations such as the Occupational Safety and Health (OSHA) 29 CFR 1910.95 Occupational Noise Exposure Standard ...

  9. Noise measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_measurement

    Noise measurement can also be part of a test procedure using white noise, or some other specialized form of test signal.In audio systems and broadcasting, specific methods are used to obtain subjectively valid results in order that different devices and signal paths may be compared regardless of the inconsistent spectral distribution and temporal properties of the noise that they generate.
