The accuracy of sound strength (G) measurement method in ISO 3382 has been questioned. One of the main reason is the difficulty in measuring a reference sound level in an anechoic chamber with the same set-up which was applied for the actual hall measurements. In the present paper, an in-situ measurement method for G was proposed by investigating the present G measurement method shown in ISO 3382. In addition, the sound radiation characteristics of typical omnidirectional loudspeakers were investigated and Phi (O) of auto correlation function (ACF) parameters was also calculated from an actual music excerpt to characterize the sound energy distribution in concert halls.

Mobile phone is necessary articles by increasing mobile communication now. People usually use the Mobile phone in any time and place. Ring tone of Mobile phone effect owner or other person. The sound level of Mobile phone ring tone could be considered as noise if it is too loud a specific situation. Manufacturing company improve ring tone of mobile phone better in consumer's perception. In this study, we record ring tone of mobile phone and estimated the complexity and nonlinear characteristics of the relation between subjective evaluation and sound metrics. Linear regression models were obtained for the subjective evaluation and sound quality metrics. Semantic Differential Method is used to study sound quality Evaluation. To analyze the sound quality of ring tone.

In order to measure the sound transmission loss(STL) of a test specimen such as windows, which is smaller than the test opening, a special partition is built into the test opening and the specimen is placed in that partition. This paper discusses how the measured STL is changed by the partition when a small-size window of high sound insulation is mounted. Theoretical and experimental investigations are carried out to quantify the effect of the filler wall. The results reveal that the smaller the window size is, the higher sound insulation performance of the filler wall is required in order to measure the accurate STL of the specimen. It is found that the insufficient sound insulation of the filler wall leads to the lower measured value of the window's STL.

Literary works contain various human emotion and historical, cultural background. It is very significant to understand sound recognition and receptions represented in many literary works. This study aims to investigate the sound impression on ancient Korean Sijo( Korean Verse) involved various traditional korean emotion, which were expressed in different situations. Firstly we selected the appropriate Sijo to express sounds, and then classified the sound, analyzed the meaning of recognition to the sound. The number of 297 sounds were classified into 13 categories, and 20 emotional meanings. Especially, 'internal sadness' characterized the korean rooted emotion were more expressed than other meanings and this meaning were symbolized by the sound of wild geese and cuckoos.

This study is dealt with a method to enhance low-frequency diffuse sound field in a scaled reverberation chamber. Because scaled reverberation chamber has not enough room volume, as a result, it shows a few room modes. So it is not build up low-frequency diffuse sound field. A Helmholtz resonator's arrangement is used to improve spatial uniformity of sound pressure at low frequency. The spatial distribution of sound field has been measured before and after control. The standard deviation of sound field has decreased at 315Hz 1/3 Octave band.

In evaluating sound performance of building, it is important to carry on tests and evaluations based upon residential sound performances. Korean Standards include test methods on sound performance, but don't include any code on evaluation methods. Therefore, evaluation methods from Japan or ISO have been used for evaluating sound performance in domestic so far. In this study, every regulation from ISO, JIS, ASTM, especially for airborne sound insulation against building and building element, is analyzed in order to apply to establishment of Korean Standards on a sound performance evaluation method in buildings.

In an apartment house In Korea, the balcony is one of the important spaces as a buffer zone for controlling the outdoor environments such as noise, heating & cooling load, humidity etc. Because most areas of building facade in apartment building occupy the area of balcony window the sound Insulation design of It Is very Important to provide the quiet indoor environment. The aim of this research is to evaluate the sound insulation of balcony windows in apartment building by new and revised Korean Industrial Standards. We measured and studied the sound insulations of 18 balcony windows by the type of measuring methods, noise sources, correction of reverberation time in balcony and so on. The results show that the single-number quantities for sound insulation of windows are ranged from 24 dB to 30 dB.

Floor impact sound has caused many acoustical complaints to the apartment building dwellers. The concrete floating floor construction is one of the most reasonable way to reduce floor impact sound. Recently, many damping materials are used in apartment buildings. In this study, to evaluate floor impact sound insulation performance, field tests were carried at five building floors with damping materials. The test results of impact sound insulation performance for five buildings showed good improvement in light weight impact sound after installation of damping materials, but heavy weight impact sound wasn't improved.

The purpose of this study is to obtain the basic data of existing light-weight Drywall through the evaluation and analysis of the light-weight drywall in reverberation chamber and to improve sound insulation performance of drywalls. Sound transmission loss of the total 11 types were analyzed in each frequency a-third octave band and evaluated sound insulation performance for each frequency. From data by analysis and calculation, STC value plotted on STC contour. We found that the improved light-weight drywall specimens ⓑ, ⓒ and ⓖ were satisfied with the domestic standard of sound transmission loss.

In this paper, we present the description and results of experimental study of the sound power measurements based on International Standards ISO 3741 and 3745. The sound power emitted by a calibrated reference sound source was measured in a reverberation room and a free field over a reflecting plane, using the precision methods of International Standards ISO 3741 direct method and ISO 3745, respectively. The sound power measurements carried out in this study give accurate estimation and also show that both methods for determining the sound power levels of a sound source in a reverberation room and a free field over a reflecting plane, according to the ISO 3741 and 3745, respectively, have proved equally good.
