  2. Audio frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_frequency

    In general, frequency components of a sound determine its "color", its timbre. When speaking about the frequency (in singular) of a sound, it means the property that most determines its pitch. [6] Higher pitches have higher frequency, and lower pitches are lower frequency. The frequencies an ear can hear are limited to a specific range of ...

  4. Bark scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bark_scale

    It is named after Heinrich Barkhausen, who proposed the first subjective measurements of loudness. [1] One definition of the term is "a frequency scale on which equal distances correspond with perceptually equal distances. Above about 500 Hz this scale is more or less equal to a logarithmic frequency axis. Below 500 Hz the Bark scale becomes ...

  6. Loudness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness

    The horizontal axis shows frequency in Hertz. In acoustics, loudness is the subjective perception of sound pressure.More formally, it is defined as the "attribute of auditory sensation in terms of which sounds can be ordered on a scale extending from quiet to loud". [1]

  7. Radio spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_spectrum

    A radio band is a small frequency band (a contiguous section of the range of the radio spectrum) in which channels are usually used or set aside for the same purpose. To prevent interference and allow for efficient use of the radio spectrum, similar services are allocated in bands.

    That’s because this noise plays all sound frequencies evenly, creating a steady “whoosh” or “shhh” sound that helps mask disruptive sounds, says Raj Dasgupta, MD, a physician, sleep ...

  9. Equal-loudness contour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal-loudness_contour

    ISO equal-loudness contours with frequency in Hz. An equal-loudness contour is a measure of sound pressure level, over the frequency spectrum, for which a listener perceives a constant loudness when presented with pure steady tones. [1] The unit of measurement for loudness levels is the phon and is arrived at by reference to equal-loudness ...
