Noise Mapping (Sep 2022)
Synchronized acoustic and atmospheric measurement system for characterization of atmospheric sound propagation
Abstract
The aim of the paper is to describe a portable, modular, and scaleable system for measuring concurrent acoustic transmission loss and atmospheric characteristics. This system has been developed specifically to inform an effort to improve the ability to implement high fidelity numerical predictions of acoustic transmission loss, particularly in acoustically complex outdoor ranges, such as those that occur in coastal areas. Such a system has broad possible applicability in many outdoor atmospheric acoustic monitoring scenarios.
