4、America Approved on November 30, 2012 by: American National Standards Institute, Inc. Abstract The present standard describes a manikin for airborne acoustic measurements. It comprises a head with external ears and ear canals, and a torso that simulates a median human adult. It is intended primarily

5、 as an instrument for measuring the response of acoustical devices under simulated in situ conditions. Acoustical performance requirements are given as well as informative geometric descriptions. AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARDS ON ACOUSTICS The Acoustical Society of America (ASA) provides the Secretaria

6、t for Accredited Standards Committees S1 on Acoustics, S2 on Mechanical Vibration and Shock, S3 on Bioacoustics, S3/SC 1 on Animal Bioacoustics, and S12 on Noise. These committees have wide representation from the technical community (manufacturers, consumers, trade associations, organizations with

7、a general interest, and government representatives). The standards are published by the Acoustical Society of America as American National Standards after approval by their respective Standards Committees and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). These standards are developed and publish

8、ed as a public service to provide standards useful to the public, industry, and consumers, and to Federal, State, and local governments. Each of the Accredited Standards Committees (operating in accordance with procedures approved by ANSI) is responsible for developing, voting upon, and maintaining

9、or revising its own Standards. The ASA Standards Secretariat administers Committee organization and activity and provides liaison between the Accredited Standards Committees and ANSI. After the Standards have been produced and adopted by the Accredited Standards Committees, and approved as American

10、National Standards by ANSI, the ASA Standards Secretariat arranges for their publication and distribution. An American National Standard implies a consensus of those substantially concerned with its scope and provisions. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards R

11、eview, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered and that a concerted effort be made towards their r

12、esolution. The use of an American National Standard is completely voluntary. Their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he or she has approved the Standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the Stan

13、dards. NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require that action be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this Standard.

This s

30、tandard comprises a part of a group of definitions, standards, and specifications for use in bioacoustics. It was developed and approved by Accredited Standards Committee S3, Bioacoustics, under its approved operating procedures. Those procedures have been accredited by the American National Standar

31、ds Institute (ANSI). The Scope of Accredited Standards Committee S3 is as follows: Standards, specifications, methods of measurement and test, and terminology in the fields of psychological and physiological acoustics, including aspects of general acoustics which pertain to biological safety, tolera

32、nce and comfort. This standard is a revision of ANSI S3.36-1985, which has been technically revised. At the time of preparation of this standard there was a parallel effort in IEC/TC 29, SC-29C Working Group 9 to revise IEC/TR 60959:1990 (in fact, identical to ANSI S3.36-1985), which resulted in IEC

33、 60318-7. The IEC 60318-7 document and this standard have many common elements; however, this standard does differ from IEC 60318-7 in some respects. Notable differences include: The Scope of Use for the manikin includes other applications in addition to hearing aid measurements. Dimensional informa

34、tion is found in informative annexes. Recommendations for documentation of the manikin calibration are included. Specification of harmonic distortion of the test system is reduced to 0.5%. Conditions and specifications for the free field sound source are detailed. Angular resolution for tests is red

35、uced to 1. The specification for the free field on-axis response of the manikin is revised, considering the response of several different commercially available manikins. The free field manikin response tolerance is specified only at 0 azimuth, whereas tolerances in IEC 60318-7 apply to all azimuth

36、angles (0, 90, 180, and 270). The manikin diffuse field response is specified in place of the 90, 180, and 270 angle responses. A diffuse field response test procedure is detailed. Nominal manikin response and tolerances are provided in both graphical and tabular format. Requirements for field press

37、ure calibration are provided. A number of application-specific requirements are included. For mouth-simulator-equipped manikins for telecom applications, reference is made to ITU-T Rec. P.58. The DRP to ERP transfer function is provided in an annex instead of the DRP to EEP transfer function. A tabl

38、e of the dimensional data for three commercially available manikins and average human data is included in an informative annex. 2012 Acoustical Society of America All rights reserved vAt the time this Standard was submitted to Accredited Standards Committee S3, Bioacoustics, for approval, the member

42、hts reserved viiIntroduction This standard describes a head and torso simulator (a.k.a. manikin) for acoustical measurements such as hearing aid simulated insertion gain, insertion loss of hearing protectors, headphone and earphone response, speech and room acoustics, automotive acoustics, measureme

43、nts of telephone handsets, headsets, and hands-free or loudspeaking telephones. The manikin described in this standard is intended for airborne acoustic measurements and is not suitable for measurements which depend upon vibration transmission paths such as bone conduction, nor for measurements requ

44、iring the simulation of bone or flesh. The acoustical performance of the head and torso simulator has been specified to provide diffraction effects similar to those encountered around the median adult human head and torso. The frequency response tolerances in this document were developed using free

45、and diffuse field data provided by the three known manufacturers of compliant test manikins. Additional data for a common alternative configuration of one of the manikins with a legacy ear simulator was also included. Significant changes to this document since the last revision (1985) include: Empha

46、sis is on the acoustical response of the manikin. Dimensional information is moved to informative annexes. The Scope of Use for the manikin includes other applications in addition to hearing aid measurements. Recommendations for documentation of the manikin calibration are included. Specification of

47、 harmonic distortion of the test system is reduced to 0.5%. Conditions and specifications for the free field sound source are detailed. Angular resolution for tests is reduced to 1. The specification for the free field on-axis response of the manikin is revised, considering the response of three dif

48、ferent commercially available manikins, one equipped with either of the ANSI/ASA S3.25 ear simulators. The manikin response tolerances are reduced in the critical frequency range from 1 to 5 kHz, considering the small variation between the data for the different manikins. The manikin diffuse field r

49、esponse is specified in place of the 90, 180, and 270 angle responses. The figure depicting the pinna simulator is updated. A diffuse field response test procedure is detailed. Nominal manikin responses and tolerances are also depicted as graphs. Requirements for field pressure calibration are provided. A number of application-specific requirements are included.
