It specifies mechanical dimensions and certain electroacoustical characteristics for working standard microphones used in measuring systems for the determination

27、 of sound pressure to enable these microphones to be used as transfer standards in the calibration of acoustic measurement instruments. It establishes a system for classifying working standard microphones into a number of types according to their dimensions and properties in order to facilitate the

28、specification of measurement systems, the calibration of measuring systems and microphones by sound calibrators, and the interchangeability of microphones in given measuring and calibration systems. It does not specify the transduction principle by which working standard microphones operate. 2 Norma

39、ions be carried out at, or near, this temperature. 5 Classification of working standard microphones 5.1 General The sound pressure in a given sound field will generally depend on position and should ideally be measured at a point with a transducer of infinitesimally small dimensions and infinitely h

40、igh acoustic impedance. However, the finite dimensions and acoustic impedance of a real microphone, and the mounting of this microphone cause practical measurements of sound pressure to depart from this ideal. The effect of diffraction is accounted for by defining different sensitivities of a microp

41、hone each referring to idealized sound fields, for example pressure, free-field, and diffuse-field sensitivities. A microphone is usually so constructed that one of the above sensitivities is essentially independent of frequency in the widest possible frequency range. 5.2 Type designation Working st

42、andard microphones are described by a mnemonic system consisting of the letters WS (for Working Standard) followed by a number representing the mechanical configuration and a third letter representing the electroacoustical characteristic. The third letter may be P, F or D representing, respectively,

43、 microphones having a pressure, free-field or diffuse field sensitivity, which is approximately independent of frequency in the widest possible frequency range. The designation WS2P thus refers to a working standard microphone of mechanical configuration2having a nearly constant pressure sensitivity

44、 as a function of frequency. The type designation does not always prevent the use of these microphones under other conditions, such as pressure, free-field or diffuse field conditions after proper calibration. 6 Characteristics of working standard microphones 6.1 Sensitivity The sensitivity of the m

45、icrophone is the open-circuit sensitivity as defined inIEC1094-1. If the insert voltage technique is used to determine this sensitivity for type WS1 and WS2 microphones, the appropriate ground-shield reference configuration given inIEC1094-1 shall apply. For type WS3 the provisional ground-shield re

46、ference configuration given inAnnex A is recommended. NOTEIf the microphone is equipped with a protection grid, this will influence the free-field and diffuse field sensitivities. The manufacturer should state whether the sensitivity has been specified with or without grid. By definition, the pressu

47、re sensitivity of a microphone does not depend on the presence or absence of a protection grid. However, the sound pressure that is measured in a small cavity with a microphone is influenced by the microphone grid. 6.2 Effective front volume The effective front volume of the microphone is an importa

48、nt quantity when the microphone is calibrated with a sound calibrator see 4.2 item d) ofIEC942 and when used in small couplers such as ear simulators. The effective front volume shall be specified as a function of frequency in the frequency range from160Hz to1000Hz inclusive. NOTEMethods for determi

49、ning the effective front volume are given in clause E.2 of Annex E ofIEC1094-2 6.3 Upper limit of the dynamic range of a microphone The upper limit of the dynamic range shall be stated in terms of the sound pressure level which, throughout the frequency range from160Hz to1000Hz, results in a total harmonic distortion of3%. NOTEAt present no generally accepted measuring method exist for determining this upper limit at frequencies above1000Hz. 6.4 Linearity range of the microphone sensitivity level The sensitivity level of the microphone at refe
