SPEECH INTERFERENCE ASPECTS OF NAVY NOISES. CALCULATIONS SHOW SPEECH INTERFERENCE MEASUREMENTS ARE SIMPLIFIED BY AVERAGING SOUND PRESSURE LEVELS IN MIDFREQUENCY OCTAVES

Abstract

Representative samples of ship, office, and shop noises were analyzed to determine simple methods for rating noise in shipboard spaces in relation to interference with speech communication. For simplicity in speech interference measurement, it is recommended that an average be taken of the octaves centered at 500, 1000, and 2000 cycles per second.
