On the subjective response caused by impulse sounds produced by leisure shooting

레저용 사격 소음에 대한 주관적 반응

This research presents a laboratory study about an subjective response of impulsive sound caused by leisure shooting. The sources are sampled from outdoor noise and their levels range from 40 to 75 dB at the interval of 5dB. The noise unit is based on A-weighted sound exposure level (ASEL; $L_{AE}$). To make equal ASEL of outdoor noise, finite impulse response (FIR) filter is applied to the originally sampled source to include the effect of distance attenuation. The evaluation method of the jury test adopted a Semantic Difference(SD) Method. In the result of the jury test for impulsive noise, the mean response rating expressed a linear relation and %HA(percent highly annoyed) displayed a exponential growth relation.
