13、0 Annex A (informative) Notes on the derivation and application of the recommended reference levels A.l Derivation A.l.l General It is very important to note that the RETSPLs given in Table 1 and Table 2 refer, as closely as can be ascertained from existing data, to the same hearing threshold levels

14、. The differences between the values are mainly due to differences between the acoustical properties of the acoustic coupler and those of the artificial ear. A.1.2 Octave frequencies and additional audiometric frequencies 1 500 Hz, 3 O00 Hz and 6 O00 Hz The RETSPLs given in Table 1 for the Beyer DT

15、48 earphone correspond to an average of 15 determinations published, or otherwise communicated to the International Organization of Standardization, during the period from 1950 to 1961. The values have been determined by a cooperative investigation carried out by the following five standardizing lab

16、oratories: Centre National dctudes des Tlcommunications, Palaiseau, France; Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt, Braunschweig, Germany; National Physical Laboratoty, Teddington, United Kingdom; National Bureau of Standards, Washington DC, USA; V.N.I.I.M. Laboratoty, Leningrad, USSR. The RETSPLs gi

17、ven in Table 1 for the Telephonics TDH 39 earphone were derived at a later date by subjective loudness balancing methods. For details, see references 2 to 5 in the Bibliography. The RETSPL values given in Table 2 were obtained by averaging the results of transfer measurements on several examples of

18、six models of earphone. These measurements, carried out by the laboratories mentioned below, compared the sound pressure level developed in the acoustic coupler (see IEC 60303) and the IEC artificial ear (see IEC 60318) for equal electrical excitation of the earphones. The participating laboratories

19、 were Audiologiske Institutt, Rikshospitalet, Oslo, Norway; Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden; National Bureau of Standards, Washington DC, USA; National Physical Laboratory, Teddington, United Kingdom; Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt, Braunschweig, Germany. For details, see reference 6

21、 Hz and 6 O00 Hz and supported by some experimental data. In the frequency range from 125 Hz to 1 O00 Hz, the interpolation was based on the assumption of a third-order polynomial relation between reference level in decibels and Ism. In the range from 1 O00 Hz to 8 O00 Hz, linear interpolation was u

22、sed for Table 1. For Table 2, linear interpolation was used in the range from 1 O00 Hz to 4 O00 Hz. Above this range, the data are based on experimental evidence. NOTE Experimental data were submitted to IS0 by the following laboratories: Health and Welfare, Ottawa, Canada; Physikalisch-Technische B

23、undesanstalt, Braunschweig, Germany; Regionsjukhuset, Linkping, Sweden; Technical University, Lyngby, Denmark. For details, see references 7 to lo. A.2 Application A.2.1 As regards the calibration of audiometers which are fitted with earphones of one the models mentioned in Table 1 or specified in 4

24、.3, measurements of the acoustical output, using the specified type of coupler or artificial ear, suffice to calibrate the audiometer in terms of the recommended RETSPLs given in the appropriate table. When the earphone is applied to the human ear, the headband used should provide a nominal static f

25、orce of 4,5 N IO,5 N. NOTE A headband providing a force of 4,5 N for a mean head width of 145 mm will usually comply with this tolerance for adult test populations. A.2.2 In the case of audiometers fitted with earphones of models neither mentioned in Table 1 nor specified in 4.3, it is necessary fir

26、st to determine the corresponding RETSPLs for this model of earphone. This would normally be done by comparing the earphone subjectively with an earphone of one of the models considered in clause 4, using a suitable ”equal-loudness balance” or ”threshold balance” technique. In certain cases, the res

27、ults of such comparisons may already be available. For details of the technical procedures and facilities for such work, reference should be made to the manufacturer or direct to the appropriate standardizing laboratory. 7 STD-BSI BS EN IS0 389-3-ENGL 2000 M 3b24bb9 0842732 8T9 - EN IS0 389-1:2000 B
