Among the various elements affecting a customer's evaluation of automobile quality, buzz, squeak and rattle (BSR) are considered to be major factors. In most vehicle manufacturers, the BSR problems are solved by find-fix method with the vehicle road test, mainly due to various excitation sources, complex generation mechanism and subjective response. The aim of this paper is to develop the integrated experimental method to systematically tackle the BSR problems in early stage of the vehicle development cycle by resolving these difficulties. To achieve this aim, the developed experimental method ought to include the following requirements: to find and fix the BSR problem for modules instead of a full vehicle in order to tackle the problem in the early stage of the vehicle development cycle; to develop the exciter system including the zig and road-input-signal reproducing algorithm; to automatically localize the source region of BSR; to develop sound quality index that can be used to assess the subjective responses to BSR. Also, the BSR sound quality indexes based on the Zwicker's sound quality parameters using a multiple regression analysis. The four sound metrics from Zwicker's sound quality parameter are computed for the signals recorded for eight BSR noise source regions localized by using the acoustic-field visualized results. Then, the jury test of BSR noise are performed for participants. On a basis of the computed sound metrics and jury test result, sound quality index is developed to represent the harsh of BSR noise. It is expected that the developed BSR detection system and sound quality indexes can be used to reduce the automotive interior BSR noise in terms of subjective levels as well as objective levels.

A coupled room system consists of adjacent rooms and apertures where the sound energy is exchanged between the two rooms. Acoustically, a coupled room system shows a non-exponential decay profile. Most of the related researches have been to analyze the acoustic properties of two-room coupled system so far whereas three-room coupled system were seldom studied. In this regard, this paper aims to analyse the distribution of sound pressure level, sound decay curve of three-room coupled system and sound energy flow between them by using the acoustic diffusion model and to further verify them through experiments. Firstly, the sound pressure level distribution and mean sound pressure level in the steady-state condition are analyzed at various frequencies and source locations. Good agreements are observed in both experiments and analysis results. Secondly, two double slope effect quantifiers of sound attenuation, LDT/EDT and LDT/T10 are compared at various frequencies and for different source locations. The result indicates that LDT/T10, less affected by the early reflection patterns than LDT/EDT, is more suitable to the analysis and experiments of a multi-slope sound decay curve. Lastly, the sound energy flow in each room is analyzed based on the acoustic diffusion model. After the early decay stage, the sound energy is observed to flow from the room with a long reverberation time to the room with a short one.

소리에 방향성을 부여하여 특정 영역에서만 소리를 들을 수 있도록 활용되는 초음파 스피커는 일반 스피커와 비교하여 음질 및 비용적인 이슈에서 다양한 개선 연구가 지속적으로 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 초음파 스피커의 센서 특성상 500 Hz 미만 저음 구현이 어려운 점을 감안하여 500 Hz 대의 소리를 보완할 수 있도록 일반 스피커와 동시 사용이 가능한 DSP 기반의 하이브리드형 초음파 스피커를 제안한다. 일반 스피커와 초음파 스피커의 단순 연결로 각각의 분리 처리 및 송출하는 시스템은 초음파 재생성 처리 시간 차에 따른 음질저하뿐만 아니라 일반 음원과 초음파 음원이 2개의 앰프로 구동되어 높은 비용 이슈가 있으며 제반 제어적인 측면에서도 어려움이 있다. 이러한 점을 개선하고자 제안한 DSP 기반의 앰프에서 Dynamic Range Control(DRC) 및 Equalizer(EQ)의 기존 코덱 기능은 물론, 초음파 음원으로의 재생성, 일반/초음파 음원을 동기화함으로써 동시 재생이 가능한 하이브리드형 초음파 스피커를 개발하였다.

본 연구에서는 구조물이 횡방향으로 음압을 받을 경우 이를 감지하기 위하여 Fabry-Perot형 광섬유 배열 센서를 제작하고 실험하였다. 이는 한 개의 광원으로 두 개의 센서가 병렬로 연결되고 센서의 출력신호를 보기 위한 별도의 신호처리기가 필요 없는 구조이다. 횡방향 음압을 임의의 음원 주파수인 100Hz, 200Hz 및 655Hz의 주파수를 무지향성 스피커에 인가하였으며 $60cm{\times}60cm{\times}60cm$의 격자 구조물에 부착된 두 개의 배열 센서가 잡은 신호를 분석하였다. 시간 영역에서 두 개의 센서 신호는 진폭에 약간의 차이는 있으나 음원 주파수를 잘 감지함을 확인 하였다. 센서가 실제로 양단이 지지된 구조의 배열 센서를 모델링하고 그 해를 실험결과와 비교하였다. 2kHz의 음원을 배열 센서에 인가하였더니 이론 해석과 비교적 잘 일치하는 측정 결과를 얻었다.

본 연구는 폐쇄된 사무 공간상에서 2개의 마이크로폰을 이용하여 임의의 위치에서 발생한 음성 및 음향의 방향성 (방향각)을 추적하는 새로운 알고리듬을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 Subband CPSP (Cross Power Spectrum Phase) 알고리듬은 기존의 CPSP 알고리듬을 개선한 것으로서, 마이크로폰에 수신된 2개의 입력 신호에 대해 서브밴드 필터 뱅크를 이 용하여 대역 분할하고 각 서브밴드 대역에서 구해지는 대역별 CPSP 결과의 평균값을 제공한다. 이러한 주파수 대역 분할방식은 잡음의 영향을 각 대역으로 한정 분산시켜 사무 공간내 잡음의 영향을 각 대역으로 한정하여 음원의 방향각 계산시 발생하는 오차를 최소화할 수 있는 보다 강인하고 정확한 음원 추적 시스템을 가능하게 한다. 제안된 알고리듬의 성능을 입증하기 위해 기존의 CPSP 와 Subband CPSP 알고리듬의 실시간 음원 추적 실험을 수행하였으며, 실험 결과 제안된 Subband CPSP가 CPSP에 비해 평균 5％ 이상의 성능 향상을 가져옴을 확인할 수 있었다.

기준음원은 음향파워 측정에 활용되는 중요한 기준기로, 국제 표준으로 그 사양이 규정되어 있으며, 측정 표준 분야에서 주요 교정 품목으로 분류되고 있다. 이러한 기준음원은 공급 전압에 의하여 그 출력이 영향을 받기 때문에 각국에서 자체적으로 교정 서비스 체계를 확보할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 잔향실 조건에서 기준음원을 교정하는 절차를 수립하고 불확도를 평가하였다. 교정 절차는 기본적으로 음향 파워의 정밀급 측정과정을 적용할 수 있으며, 여기서는 ISO 3741의 잔향실을 활용한 측정 방법을 검토하였다. 이를 위한 측정 시스템을 구성하고 실제 2종의 기준 음원에 대하여 측정을 수행하고 측정 불확도를 산출하였다. 측정 예를 통하여 잔향실 내 음압 분포의 불균일성과 체적 측정 불확도가 전체 불확도에 기여가 큰 것을 확인하였다. 추가적으로 입력 전압에 대한 영향을 실험적으로 검토하여 음향 파워 측정에서 반영할 수 있는 불확도 기여량을 검토하였다.

The aim of the work described in this paper is to develop a complex underground acoustic system which detects and localizes the origin of an underground hammering sound using an array of hydrophones located about 100m underground. Three different methods for the sound localization will be presented, a time-delay method, a power-attenuation method and a hybrid method. In the time-delay method, the cross correlation of the signals received from the array of sensors is used to calculate the time delays between those signals. In the power-attenuation method, the powers of the received signals provide a measure of the distances of the source from the sensors. In the hybrid method, both informations of time-delays and power-ratios are coupled together to produce better performance of position estimation. A new acoustic imaging technique has been developed for improving the hybrid method. This new acoustic imaging method shows the multi-dimensional distribution of the normalized cost function, so as to indicate the trend of the minimizing direction toward the source location. For each method the sound localization is carried out in three dimensions underground. The distance between the true and estimated origins of the source is 28m for a search area of radius 250m.

Before some experiments were carried out with analog bandpass filter which used for filtering the noise included in sound source signal. And this filter was constituted by condenser, register and operational amplifier. Hut these elements made the phase characteristics to differentiate in each sensing channel and cause a little of measurement error. We made new measurement system that was substituted digital filter for the analog filter in order to develop the optimal system which could find the time delay between each sensors with high accuracy. This paper describes the new system's constitution and the function of each parts. Specially three digital filters were designed and applied to the digital signal processing Part. And a series of experiments were carried out with the source＇s distance 9.53meters and the random bearing interval within the limits of $0^{\circ}$ ~ $180^{\circ}$. As a result, we have recognized that the accuracy of measurements were differentiated by the methods what kind of digital filter were adopted. And we have confirmed the facts that IIR LPF was suitable for sound source's bearing measurement and FIR LPF reduced the range measurement error.

In this article, spatial filtering procedures with application to spherical acoustical holography are discussed. Planar and cylindrical holography are the most widely used amongst the various nearfield acoustical holography techniques. However, when the geometry of a source is similar to a sphere, spherical holography may yield better results than other types of holography since there are no errors due to truncation of the sound field in the spherical case. Spatial filtering affects the accuracy of spherical acoustical holography critically, especially in the case of backward projection. Thus spatial filtering is essential for successful application of spherical holography. In the present work, various filtering methods were evaluated in simulations made using sound pressure fields of various types and with different levels of random spatial noise. It was found that a procedure based on eliminating spherical harmonic coefficients that contribute insignificantly to the total sound power of the source gave the best results on average of the different procedures considered here. Spherical holography procedures were also verified experimentally. Reliable results were obtained using the power filtering algorithm. Thus it was concluded that spherical holography combined with power filtering may prove to be a useful tool for noise source identification.
