  • Abstract
    A SOUND METER has recently been developed in the Bell System, which measures acoustic noises and sounds in general. The aim has been to have its indications accord with present information on the response of the ear as far as practicable in a simple portable device. The response of the meter to sound impulses, in general an important part of noise, has been carefully considered. There is also under development an attachment to analyze sound both on a single-frequency and band-frequency basis.
