An impulse sound generator and some comparative experiments with different noise dosimeters.
An impulse sound generator has been constructed which gives the same sound pressure wave pattern during over 10(5) impacts with very small variations. This device has been used in evaluating the response of different types of noise dosimeters for impulse sounds.
