Road traffic noise is not produced by any one factor rather occurs as a composition of various factors. Its occurrence is made by running engine noise, tire frictional, and exhaust noise etc. The quality of the noise depends on the size of the vehicles, rotation and engine speed, vehicle load, package state of the road and incline etc. The occurrence of noise level of heavy trucks appears louder than smaller vehicles and the noise levels produced differs according to speed and load etc between similar size vehicles. Other factors such as traffic density, average speed, mixing rate of heavy vehicles, and the distance between vehicles also generate road traffic noise. In this paper we examine 2, 4, and 6-lane roads in Jeonju. Consequently, this study examined the means used to measure road traffic noise. It was found that when there is a large traffic density and the average velocity is below 70 km/hr, the noise level could receive a relative proper value by the current measuring means. But in the case of night-time, it was found that the current measuring method is inapposite.

Korean 'Law of Aviation' and 'Test Method of Measuring Noise and Vibration' designate to use WECPNL metric based on $L_{max}$ measurement for the accessment of aircraft noise in Korea. However, time duration of noise event can not be considered in $L_{max}$ metric in principle, compensation on the duration has been utilized. A study was done recently to evaluate appropriate duration compensation for the accessment of military aircraft noise under current metric of WECPNL and $L_{max}$. This study was carried out to evaluate what metric is the most appropriate to express aircraft noise including time duration of single noise event, computing and comparing noise exposure with 1 second noise measurement data of military aircraft in $L_{max}$, $L_{Aeq,\;T}$ and SEL. This study shows SEL is the most appropriate noise metric for the evaluation of noise exposure with time duration such as aircraft noise without compensation. It is suggested to use SEL noise metric instead of $L_{max}$ noise metric with duration compensation for the aircraft noise accessment either military aircraft or civilian aircraft.

Rating scales for environmental noise are varied in their calculation procedure. Among them WECPNL (weighted equivalent continuous perceived noise level) is the rating scale for aircraft noise currently being used in domestic and applied only for aircraft noise. However $L_{dn}$ calculated from $L_{eq}$ $L_{eq}$ is used as a rating scale for not only aircraft noise but also environmental noise. Besides, it is easy to calculate and internationally preferred. It is, therefore, not adequate for the evaluation of residents' exposure. Moreover it is very difficult to measure the aircraft noise by WECPNL due to the complicated calculating procedures if automatic measuring system is not used. Accordingly. this study aims to propose alternative evaluation procedure for the aircraft noise. To achieve this purpose, the data measured by automatic measuring system were gathered and calculated with three evaluation procedures : WECPNL $L_{eq}$ and $L_{dn}$, and the results calculated from different methods were compared and analyzed.

Currently domestic criteria for the aircraft noise is being adapted WECPNL(weighted equivalent continuous perceived noise level), while internationally preferred method is which is originated from $L_{eq}$ and can evaluate even environmental noise. WECPNL used in domestic as a evaluation method is only for the aircraft noise. It is, therefore, not adequate for the evaluation of residents' injury, moreover, it is very difficult to measure the aircraft noise with WECPNL due to the complicated calculating procedures as long as automatic measuring system is not used. Accordingly, this study aims to propose alternative evaluation method for the aircraft noise. To achieve this purpose, the data measured by automatic measuring system were gathered and calculated with three evaluation methods： WECPNL, $L_{eq}$ and $L_{dn}$ and the results calculated from different methods were compared and analyzed.

경량충격음레벨을 평가하기 위해서는 수음실의 잔향시간을 측정하여 규준화 바닥충격음레벨을 구하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 규준화 바닥충격음레벨과 표준화 바닥충격음레벨을 구할 때 고려하는 보정레벨을 중심으로 등가 흡음력을 결정하는 잔향시간과 수음실의 체적을 변수요인으로 분석하였다. 그 결과 측정된 잔향 시간은 공간에 관계없이 기준보다 2배 이상 길게 나타났고, 등가 흡음력은 기준보다 침실의 경우 1/2 정도 작지만 거실의 경우 기준과 거의 유사하게 나타나 침실의 경우 두 보정레벨이 유사하지만 거실의 경우 전자가 후자보다 낮게 보정되는 것으로 나타났다.

소음특성이 서로 다른 군용 항공기 소음과 민간 항공기 소음을 환경부에서 고시한 소음 진동공정시험방법에 의거하여 소음을 측정하고 평가하는데는 개선되어야 할 문제점이 뒤따른다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 민간 항공기와 군용 항공기의 소음특성으로 조사하고 소음 측정 및 평가방법에 대한 문제점들을 고찰하였다. 연구결과로 부터, 민간 항공기나 군용 항공기의 정확한 소음측정을 위해서는 동특성을 빠름(Fast)으로 설정하여 측정하는 것이 바람직한 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 등가 소음도를 측정하여 항공기 소음을 평가하는 방식은 민간 항공기 소음평가시에는 적절하지만, 이를 군용 항공기 소음에 적용하여 평가할 때에는 상당한 오차를 포함하는 것으로 조사되었다. 그리고 군용 항공기 이 착륙지점에서의 소음 지속시간이 대부분 30초를 초과하는 것으로 조사되었기 때문에, 군용 항공기 소음평가시에는 지속시간에 대한 보정이 반드시 반영되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

It is important to increase the sound proof performance of building for reducing the influence of aircraft noise on the bais of actual survey of existed buildings. The purpose of this study is to propose the basic data for designing sound insulation of residential house. In this study, field measurement of aircraft noise Interior and outside noise level difference were carried out for 7 days in 2 residential houses. As the result, aircraft noise levels showed to be Leq $71.8{\sim}74.5$dB(A), WECPNL $82.2{\sim}83.4$ and indoor noise level were NC-55 ${\sim}63$ over acceptable NC-30 in 2 measured houses. Noise reduction effect showed to be $15.8{\sim}23.1$dB(A) in measured houses, and houses with double window were preferable to those with single window in sound proof performance. The outside sound pressure level for residential house was a little different according to the type of source. In measuring by using aircraft noise it was effected by angle and distance from measuring point, to aircraft, window area, and sound absorption of room, and so on.

공항주변지역의 항공기 소음영향은 항공기 1대에 의한 소음크기나 시끄러움보다는 항공기가 계속하여 반복 운항하는데 더욱 큰 영향이 있다.그래서 ICAO가 1971년에 공포한 Annex 16 Aircraft Noise중에서 다수의 항공기에 의해 장기간 연속폭로 된 소음척도로서 EPNL에 항공기 운항회수와 운항시간대등을 고려한 WECPNL(가중 등가속 감각 소음 레벨 : Weighted Equivalent Continuous Perceived Noise Level)이 제안되었다.
