1 Soundscape and Psychoacoustics Using the resources for environmental noise protection Standards in Psychoacoustics Roland Sottek HEAD acoustics GmbH Satellite symposium on August 25 and 26, Introduction The evaluation and design of noise is becoming increasingly important. Different kind of sources contribute to the noise: Broadband and narrowband noises, tonal components, modulated sounds. The perception is often predicted by psychoacoustic parameters in order to reduce time-consuming listening tests. 2 1
2 L/dB[SPL] L/dB[SPL] L/dB[SPL] Why do we need psychoacoustics? Time data and 3 rd octave spectrum of an electrical motor and a Mozart concert Almost identical levels and 3 rd octave spectra 3 Different time structures Almost identical 3 rd octave spectra and thus identical sound pressure levels and stationary loudness values (calculation from 3 rd octave spectra) Clearly audible difference also with respect to loudness because of different time structures 3 rd octave spectra Noise f/hz k Impulse f/hz k Diesel f/hz k

5 Acoustics vs. psychoacoustics (1) In acoustics the sound source is in the center of focus: What signals? What are the amplitudes? What vibrations / frequencies? What energy? Psychoacoustics provides the recipient (the people) in the center of focus : What loudness, sharpness, roughness, tonality, annoyance are perceived? What are the expectations, attitudes, experiences of those affected? 10 Acoustics vs. psychoacoustics (2) In acoustics, the entire sound event is often reduced to a simple variable in the form of A-weighted sound pressure level db (A). A-weighting considers in a highly simplified manner, the frequencydependent sensitivity of human hearing; low-frequency tones are perceived softer as high-frequency tones at the same sound pressure level. Psychoacoustics describes the auditory sensation of a human being as a complex function of the signal composition, the temporal patterns, the interaction of different frequencies. Here cognitive and contextual aspects are very important: attitude to noise, the information content and the cause of the noise. 11 5
6 What is psychoacoustics? Psychoacoustics deals with the sound perception of human hearing (sound recording, analysis in the inner ear, processing and analysis in the brain) and is engaged in addition also with the acoustically correct recording (e.g., with an artificial head measuring system) and the hearing-related analysis of sound events. Taking into account the cognitive aspects of noise psychoacoustics enables one to describe the transformation of a sound event in an auditory event. 12 6
7 Introduction to loudness 14 Definition of loudness Loudness is a psychological term used to describe the magnitude of an auditory sensation. * (Fletcher, Munson, 1933) Die Empfindungsgröße der zur Schallstärke gehörenden Intensitätsempfindung ist die Lautheit. ** (Zwicker, 1982) (The auditory sensation corresponding to the perceived sound intensity is loudness.) * FLETCHER, H. MUNSON, W.A. Loudness, its definition, measurement, and calculation. J. Acoust. Soc. Amer. 5, p. 82 (1933) ** ZWICKER, E. Psychoakustik.

9 Factors influencing loudness Frequency Tones with the same sound pressure level but different frequency are not perceived as equal loud. Spectral composition Sounds with different spectral composition but the same sound pressure level are not perceived equally loud, e.g. broadband sounds are perceived louder than narrowband sounds at the same level. Sound pressure level Changes in sound pressure level do not lead to the same degree to loudness changes. Simultaneous masking At the same level, loudness varies by different masking effects in the spectral domain. Backward and forward masking The temporal structure is influencing the perceived loudness (test tone is presented before or after the masker). Signal duration Loudness sensation increases with signal duration up to a duration of 1 s. 18 Critical band concept Critical bandwidth can be considered as the bandwidth of auditory filters. Critical bandwidth is constant below 500 Hz and is about 20 % of the center frequency at higher frequencies. Third octave filters have a similar bandwidth, thus they can "be considered as a useful approach to auditory filters * The concept of critical bands is for many auditory sensations of particular importance. db(a) does not consider critical bands and masking! *FASTL, H. Psychoakustische Methoden, in: Kalivoda, M.T. und Steiner (Hrsg.). Taschenbuch der Angewandten Psychoakustik, Wien, New York, Springer (1998) 19 9
10 Loudness standards 20 Standardization of psychoacoustic parameters (1) Loudness evaluation has become a central focus for assuring better consideration of sound intensity phenomena than frequency-weighted levels like db(a). Different loudness standards available for stationary sounds: ISO 532:1975 section 1 (method A) [Stevens method] ISO 532:1975 section 2 (method B) [Zwicker method] ANSI S3.4:2007 [Moore/Glasberg method] DIN 45631:1991 [Zwicker method] Loudness standard available for time-varying sounds: DIN 45631/A1:2010 [Zwicker method] WG 9 of ISO TC43 (Acoustics) has worked on (available end of 2016) ISO Methods for calculating loudness Part 1: Zwicker method for stationary and time-varying sound based on DIN and ISO Methods for calculating loudness Part 2: Moore/Glasberg method for stationary sounds based on ANSI S3.4:
11 History of loudness standardization (Zwicker method) DIN 45631: 1967 stationary loudness ISO 532B : 1975 stationary loudness DIN 45631: 1991 stationary loudness widely used! corrections to match the ISO equal loudness contours (ISO 226:1987) DIN 45631/A1: 2010 time-varying loudness widely used! ISO 532-1: 2016 stationary and time-varying loudness based on DIN 45631, but with test implementation (source code in appendix), detailed description from time signal to (specific) loudness vs. time function; nearly identical results can be obtained by ISO and DIN or DIN 45631/A1 22 History of loudness standardization (Moore/Glasberg method) ANSI S3.4: 2007 stationary loudness ISO 532-2: 2016 stationary loudness, based on ANSI S3.4 The ISO method does not fully describe obtaining a result from time-signals, only from described levels versus frequencies. User interaction is required: description of tones, noise bands,! Moore/Glasberg made the source code of their loudness model available as part of ISO A time-varying loudness model is planned for a later update
12 Standardization of psychoacoustic parameters (2) Sharpness standard (the weighted first moment of the critical-band rate distribution of specific loudness, only stationary signals): DIN (2009) Tonality standards: ECMA-74 (IT products), DIN Standardization of roughness is currently being pursued in a DIN working group.

Center of gravity, on frequency scale of spectral envelope: the higher the c.g., the sharper the sound. Integration of specific loudness multiplied by a weighting function, divided by total loudness (hence, sharpness is levelindependent).

22 Tonality calculation procedure 49 Introduction to tonality Technical and natural sounds often contain prominent tonal components that can significantly influence the individual perception and evaluation of the sound event, increase annoyance. Tonality of sounds is increasingly important, even at very low levels regarding sound quality and sound design applications. Products may emit tonally-perceived noises due not only to pure tones but also to narrow noise bands, and to same-vicinity combinations of pure tones and narrow elevated noise bands. Established methods for tonality calculation such as (specific) prominence ratio and tone to noise ratio exhibit problems when compared to listening test data
23 Available tools for assessing audible tonality Tone-to-Noise Ratio (TNR: ECMA-74; Information Technology main use). Prominence Ratio (PR: ECMA-74; Information Technology main use). DIN tonality (German standard, 2006) Psychoacoustic tonality ( Tonality : Aures/Terhardt) 51 Perception of tonality Recent research results show a strong correlation between tonality perception and the partial loudness of tonal sound components.

32 Blind source separation 70 Investigations of methods for detecting acoustic patterns Spectral or temporal structures (patterns) are significant for the hearing impression. Complex sound events are constructed from several of these patterns. In listening tests it can be observed that in the evaluation of complex sound events often large variations occur, which point to an individual focusing on one of these patterns. For a better analysis and exploration of psychoacoustic phenomena, therefore, an automatic detection and separation of these patterns is sought by mathematical methods
33 Blind source separation using spectrograms Spectrograms are level representations as a function of time and frequency. Better frequency resolution means worse time resolution, and vice versa, i.e., depending on the resolution temporal structures are recognizable and the representation in terms of frequencies can be smeared. The two-dimensional representation is thus often inadequate for the description and especially for the detection of patterns. The quality of the results depends greatly on the signal and the selected resolution. 72 Extension to the third dimension New algorithm: (two dimensional: time-frequency) auditory filter bank is extended by modulation spectral analysis to a tensor frequency t 3 rd dimension: time structure time hearing model spectrogram frequency weighting weighting vs. t Tensor contains information about time, frequency and time structure (modulation rate)

35 Conclusions and outlook Summary of psychoacoustic parameters Status of standardization Hearing model approach of Sottek Two-dimensional representations for the detection and separation of the components are often not sufficient. New method is based on three-dimensional modulation tensor. Additional information about temporal structure Based on a signal processing model of human perception First results indicate that the method can extract patterns in technical noise similar to the perceived patterns by humans. Validation shall be performed in listening tests. Outlook: possible application for soundscape projects 76 Thank you for your attention. Dr.-Ing.
