The work of preparing International Standards is nor
14、mally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in
15、the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular t
16、he different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

20、SPECIFICATION ISO/PAS 20065:2016(E) Acoustics Objective method for assessing the audibility of tones in noise Engineering method 1 Scope This Publicly Available Specification describes a method for the objective determination of the audibility of tones in environmental noise. This Publicly Available
21、 Specification is intended to augment the usual method for evaluation on the basis of aural impression, in particular, in cases in which there is no agreement on the degree of the audibility of tones. The method described can be used if the frequency of the tone being evaluated is equal to, or great
22、er than, 50 Hz. In other cases, if the tone frequency is below 50 Hz, or if other types of noise (such as screeching) are to be captured, then this method cannot replace subjective evaluation. The method presented herein can be used in continuous measurement stations that work automatically. 2 Norma

25、ions given in ISO 1996-1 and the following apply. 3.1 tonality presence of a tone in a noise, the level of which is below that of the remaining noise components in the critical band (3.5) about the tone frequency (3.2) by less than the value of the masking index (3.16), a v 3.2 tone frequency f T fr
26、equency of the spectral line (3.23) (or mid-band frequency of the narrow-band filter), to the level of which the tone contributes most strongly 3.3 tone level L T energy summation of the narrow-band level (3.22) with the tone frequency (3.2), f T , and the lateral lines about f T , assignable to thi
27、s tone Note 1 to entry: If the critical band (3.5) for the frequency, f T , under consideration contains a number of tones, then the tone level, L T , is the energy sum of these tones. This level, L T , is then assigned to the frequency of the participating tone that has the maximal value of audibil
28、ity (3.4), L. Note 2 to entry: The method for the determination of the tone level, L T , of a tone in a critical band is described in 5.3.3. ISO 2016 All rights reserved 1PD ISO/PAS 20065:2016ISO/PAS 20065:2016(E) 3.4 audibility L difference between the tone level (3.3), L T , and the masking thresh
29、old (3.15), L T Note 1 to entry: The method for the determination of the decisive audibility (3.24), L j , of a narrow-band spectrum (3.12) is described in 5.3.8. 3.5 critical band frequency band with a bandwidth (3.17), f c , within which the auditory system integrates the sound intensity in the fo
30、rmation of loudness and within which it integrates the sound intensity in the formation of the masking threshold (3.15) Note 1 to entry: This characteristic of a critical band (see also References 3 and 4) holds only for a restricted sound level range. This dependence is neglected here. 3.6 mean nar
31、row-band level of the critical band L S energy mean value of all narrow-band levels (3.22) in a critical band (3.5) that (as a rule) does not exceed this mean value by more than 6 dB Note 1 to entry: The method for the determination of the mean narrow-band level L Sof the masking noise is described
32、in 5.3.2 and Annex D (iterative method). 3.7 critical band level L G level of noise that is assigned to the critical band (3.5) that describes the masking characteristic of the noise for one or more tones of the noise in this critical band Note 1 to entry: See narrow-band level (3.22) and Annex C fo
33、r masking. Note 2 to entry: For the definition formula for L G , see Formula (12). 3.8 sampling frequency f S number of samples taken per second Note 1 to entry: The analogue data provided continuously are converted into samples through sampling at discrete time intervals for digital processing. Not
34、e 2 to entry: To ensure the reproducibility of a digitized signal, the Shannon theorem requires that the sampling frequency, f S , is at least 2 times the highest frequency of the signal components used for evaluation in the time signal f S 2 f N , see also aliasing (3.9), antialiasing filter (3.10)
35、 and useable frequency (3.20). The algorithm of a Fast Fourier Transform analysis (the variant of a discrete Fourier Transform used typically and optimized for calculation) only permits block lengths (3.11), N, that correspond to a power of two. FFT analyzers thus need a sampling frequency that is a
36、t least 2,56 times the maximum frequency to be analysed. 3.9 aliasing reflection in the line spectrum (3.12) of frequency components from the range above the sampling frequency (3.8) divided by two ( f S /2) in the range below f S /2 Note 1 to entry: Antialiasing filters (3.10) are used to avoid err
37、ors through such reflections. Note 2 to entry: Half the sampling frequency ( f S /2) is also known as the Nyquist frequency.2 ISO 2016 All rights reservedPD ISO/PAS 20065:2016ISO/PAS 20065:2016(E) 3.10 a n t ia lia sing f i l t e r l ow- p a s s f i l t e r ideal filter that allow frequencies below
38、half the sampling frequency (3.8) to pass through completely (without influencing the signal), but completely block all higher frequencies Note 1 to entry: To prevent aliasing (3.9), the noise under investigation shall be filtered using an antialiasing filter before analogue-to-digital conversion. N
39、ote 2 to entry: Real aliasing filters have a final damping (generally 120 dB/octave) within the blocking range, i.e. signal components in this transition range are reflected (damped). For example, in the transformation of 2 048 (2 k) data points, 1 024 frequency lines are calculated and 800 lines sh
40、own. A component in the line number 1 248 is folded back into the line number 800. With a low-pass filter of 120 dB/octave the damping of these components is approximately 75 dB. Note 3 to entry: The usual commercial FFT analyzers have an antialiasing filter, the limit frequency of which can be swit
41、ched automatically with the selectable sampling frequency. The reflection of simulated narrow-band levels (3.22) is suppressed. 3.11 block length N block of sampling values that in discrete form represents a time-limited range of the time signal to be analysed Note 1 to entry: In contrast to frequen
42、cy analysis with analogue and digital filters, the noise with the Fast Fourier Transform is processed in data blocks. In general, these blocks embrace only a part of the noise recording. The block length, N, expresses the number of data points processed at the same time. Due to the nature of the Fas
43、t Fourier Transform, the value of N has the integer of power of 2. It has a value, for example, of N = 2 10= 1 024 data points. 3.12 line spectrum narrow-band spectrum frequency spectrum plot of the sound pressure level (narrow-band level) (3.22) as a function of the frequency in frequency bands of
44、constant bandwidth (3.17) (line spacing, f ) (3.13) Note 1 to entry: A-weighting of the level is assumed in this Publicly Available Specification. Note 2 to entry: Frequency analysis delivers a line spectrum, in which each line represents the output of a filter, the mid-frequency of which correspond
45、s to the frequency of the spectral line (3.23). 3.13 line spacing frequency resolution distance between neighbouring spectral lines (3.23), where the line spacing in the FFT is given by wheref S is the sampling frequency (3.8);N is the block length (3.11).

47、e definition of the Fourier integral, a prerequisite of the FFT analysis is that the time data set is periodic. If this is not the case (as with stochastic signals), cut-off effects at the edges of the time window will lead to distortion of the spectrum. These distortions are avoided through weighti
48、ng functions such as the Hanning Function. Note 2 to entry: For more information on window and weighting functions, see, for example, Reference 5 and Annex A. 3.15 masking threshold L T audibility (3.4) threshold for a specific sound in the presence of a masking sound (masker) Note 1 to entry: See A
