Abstract

Speech intelligibility of the eavesdropping sound is investigated on a acoustic cavity - glass window coupled system. Using MLS (Maximum Length Sequency) signal as a sound source, acceleration and velocity responses of the glass window are measured by accelerometer and laser doppler vibrometer. MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) is used to identify tile speech transmission characteristics of the cavity and window system. STI (Speech Transmission Index) based upon MTF is calculated and speech intelligibility of the vibration sound of the glass window is estimated. Speech intelligibilities by the acceleration signal and the velocity signal are compared. Finally, intelligibility of the conversation sound is confirmed by the subjective test.

음향 공동-유리창 연성계를 대상으로 도청음의 음성 명료도를 검토한다. MLS신호를 음원으로 유리창의 가속도와 속도 응답을 가속도계와 레이저 도플러 진동계를 사용하여 측정한다. 변조전송함수 (MTF)를 사용하여 공동-유리창 진동계의 음성전달특성을 규명한다. 변조전송함수에 근거하여 음성전송지수 (STI)를 구하고, 유리창 진동음의 음성명료도를 평가한다. 가속도음과 속도음의 음성명료도를 비교하고, 최종적으로 대화음의 명료도를 주관적 평가로 확인한다.
