18、uction Ideally, sound exposure assessment should be done with a normalized dosimeter located close to the head (ears) of the user during the whole time of the exposure. However, in the context of leisure activities, and for evident practical and economical reasons, this ideal methodology cannot be a

19、pplied. For a user of a Personal Music Player (PMP), a dosimeter would even have to sit inside the ear canal, close to the tympanic membrane, with exposure data transformed to diffuse field equivalent. The aim of this European Standard is to define an alternative and more applicable methodology for

20、estimating sound exposure from PMPs. A PMP should inform the user about potentially harmful sound exposure, long-term as well as short-term. This is accomplished by including a rolling calculation of sound dose, CSD, and an estimation of momentary sound exposure level, MEL. In case CSD or MEL exceed

21、s defined thresholds, the user is warned and/or PMP gain is lowered. All protections should remain in place when listening to any kind of typical PMP source (music, broadcast, game etc.), but not when, for instance, having a phone call. Annex A shows a block diagram of how a complete protection syst

22、em might be realized. By adding actual PMP dose estimation to EN 50332-1 and EN 50332-2, rather than assuming the average energy of programs and tracks, warnings become more relevant to the user. Relevance and trustworthiness is essential for one of the standards objectives: its educational value. I

23、f estimation relies only on feed-forward principles, some uncertainty in the prediction of in vivo dose will persist, for instance how earplugs or headphones are mounted, spread between transducers, spectral properties of transducers, broken transducers etc. Some uncertainties can be effectively dea

24、lt with when known combinations of PMPs and headphones are employed, while it may add to the uncertainty when components are acquired separately. Regardless that earphones, earbuds or headphones for use with PMPs may not exceed defined limits with regard to sensitivity, it is acknowledged that extra

25、 uncertainty in the exposure estimation with arbitrary combinations of PMPs and transducers will persist. However, with this part 3, actual electrical measurement of source audio as part of dose estimation, a major contributor to warning errors in general, is eliminated. BS EN 50332-3:2017EN 50332-3

26、:2017 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies sound dose measurement, and the alerts associated, to reduce the risk of listeners developing hearing impairment when using a Personal Music Player (PMP).

Output limits and the calibration of the electro-acoustic loop remain unchanged, but actual audio shall be taken into account to determine maximum and minimum g

32、ain settings. With the test signal, the relationship between sound exposure level and r.m.s. voltage remains the same, e.g. 80 dB SPL and 15 mV (EN 50332-2), see Figure 1.

34、nd dose calculation, as long as the acoustic limits remain unchanged. 4.3 Headset Fit-variation If a manufacturer implements a system accounting for headset fit-variation, in which the acoustic level estimates are more accurate than the proposed feed-forward system (for example, a closed-loop or hyb

35、rid system), these levels can serve as the limits and inputs to the dose calculation, as long as the acoustic limits remain unchanged. 5 Testing 5.1 General This procedure verifies PMP sound exposure and dose estimation, based on the HATS method for acoustic testing, see EN 50332-1. (Five times re-s

36、eat calibration ref). The “programme simulation” test signal specified in EN 50332-1 and EN 503322 is here referred to as “HD 483”. The same signal, but attenuated by 12 dB, is referred to as “HD 483-12L”. Additional signals and more extensive procedures could be included to test the warning system

37、rigorously; for example, mark-space ratio noise, test music etc. To keep it simple, however, requirements are based only on continuous noise as described in EN 503321 and 2, as the intentions behind dose estimation should be clear. 5.2 Test of PMP with headphones/plugs included 1) Exposure-based war
