  • Title: A new method to measure the acoustic surface impedance outdoors.
    Author: Carpinello S, L'Hermite P, Bérengier M, Licitra G.
    Journal: Radiat Prot Dosimetry; 2004; 111(4):363-7. PubMed ID: 15550703.
    Abstract:
    In the European countries noise pollution is considered to be one of the most important environmental problems. With respect to traffic noise, different researchers are working on the reduction of noise at the source, on the modelling of the acoustic absorption of the road structure and on the effects of the pavement on the propagation. The aim of this paper is to propose a new method to measure the acoustic impedance of surfaces located outdoors, which allows us to further noise propagation models, in order to evaluate exactly the noise exposure.
