This text recommends the symbols to be used for the logarithmic expression of quantities referring to power, and provides examples of the use as well as the relationship between the decibel and the neper.
In transmission engineering, most often it would be rather impractical to characterize the magnitude of signals directly by a numerical value in volts or watts. Instead, a logarithmic measure is used, expressed in "dB", to characterize the signal magnitude in relation to some chosen reference value...
This ISO Recommendation is intended as a guide to the measurement of the acceptability of noise in communities. It specifies a method for the measurement of noise, the application of corrections to the measured levels (according to duration, spectrum character and peak factor), and a comparison of...
This book discusses EW definitions and subareas; antennas; radio propagation; receiver sensitivity; communication jamming; communications electronic protection; jamming LPI communications; radar characteristics; radar electronic protection; expendable countermeasures; decoys; decibels; graph...
The book covers the following topics about radar concept; frequency; antennas; transmitters; receivers and signal processor; waveforms; radar cross-section; radar equation; detection and search; measurement and tracking; clutter; atmosphere, rain and ionosphere; decibels (dB), and list of...
1.1 This practice defines means for describing system performance (ex vivo) and, in particular, system output of an implantable middle ear hearing device (IMEHD) by measuring a physical quantity that is relevant to the insertion gain and output level of the IMEHD when implanted in the patient. 1.2...
Methods are provided to deal with the combination of sound pressure levels in decibels. Firstly, for the case when several sources are acting together a method of addition is given to estimate the combined sound pressure level in dB from all the sources. Secondly, for the measurement of...
SCOPE AND FIELD OF APPLICATION This International Standard specifies, for the frequency range 50 to 10 O00 Hz, the difference (in decibels) between sound pressure levels for equal loudness of narrow bands of noise in diffuse and frontally-incident free-field conditions respectively.
This document specifies standard aspect ratios for logarithmic or decibel characteristics versus a logarithmic frequency axis and ranges for the radius of polar diagrams of level. Applications include hard copy printouts, electronic files (e.g., PDF files), scientific publications, screen...
ESDU 66018 provides a means of converting a sound pressure level in decibels to a root mean square value of fluctuating pressure. These data are often required when estimating structural loadings from noise data. Data are provided as equations for r.m.s. fluctuating pressures in both British...

This standard specifies a procedure for calculating the monaural and binaural loudness experienced by listeners with normal hearing under the following conditions: Listening conditions. The standard applies to three listening conditions: free field with a frontal incidence, diffuse field, or...
