24、will be applied only to situations as described in those documents (direct sound field). As the two main intrinsic acoustic characteristics of noise barriers and related devices acting on airborne sound propagation in a direct sound field, the sound reflection index and the sound insulation index, a

25、re frequency dependent, there is a need to define a reference railway noise spectrum for test purposes. Also the sound diffraction index difference, the main intrinsic acoustic characteristic of added devices, i.e. products which may be added on the top of noise barriers and intended to contribute t

26、o sound attenuation acting primarily on the diffracted sound field, is frequency dependent and there is an analogous need to define a reference railway noise spectrum for test purposes. This European Standard defines the basic properties of railway noise measured at the rail track side in terms of a

27、 characteristic normalized railway noise spectrum which is needed to evaluate single-number ratings of noise barriers and related devices acting on airborne sound propagation, except those used in reverberant conditions, e.g. inside tunnels or deep trenches.

28、 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a normalized railway noise spectrum for the evaluation and assessment of the acoustic performance of devices designed to reduce airborne railway noise near railways. All noise reducing devices different from noise barriers and related devices acting on air

29、borne sound propagation, e.g. devices for attenuation of ground borne vibration and on board devices, are out of the scope of this European Standard. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its applica
