| Abstract |
Six persons gave subjective evaluations of noise in experiments on methodological problems, on obtaining reactions to different types of noise, to study effects of decay time and repetition rate, to study differences between peak and background levels, and to study the effect of irregularity in repetition rate. The method used in EEC Directive 79/113 is shown as unsatisfactory and that in NPL Acoustics Report Ac 93 gives the best fit between objective and subjective data. |
