Linear Operating Ranges
Table C.7 Linear operating ranges for the sinusoidal signal and microphone sensitivity 1.8 mV/Pa
Note: For signals with the crest factor n > 1.41 upper measuring range of the RMS (LEQ
and SPL) is reduced. The valid upper limit can be calculated according to the below given
formula:
๐จ๐ = ๐๐๐ โ ๐๐๐๐๐(๐/
โ
๐ ), where A is the upper limit for the sinusoidal signal
Example: For the crest factor n = 10 the upper limit is A
10
= 121 dB
The starting point at which tests of level linearity shall begin 114.0 dB (94 dB for A filter @ 31.5 Hz).
Measuring frequency range of the acoustic pressure (-3 dB) 20 Hz รท 10 000 Hz.
Basic measurement error of the acoustic pressure < 0.7 dB (measured for the reference
conditions, see below).
Weighting filters (see part C.3)
