Abstract
Wireless earphones, along with smart devices, are the most sought-after products by consumers. Compared to general earphones, wireless earphones do not have twisted wires and are easy to use, so various types of products are currently on the market. However, information on quality is somewhat lacking, so consumers tend to purchase products according to brand awareness, and manufacturers are delivering information to consumers using different standards for each product because there is no standard for quality control. In particular, the playback time of wireless earphones is a factor that directly affects consumers' purchases, so a standard measurement method is needed to properly measure it. In this paper, we present a method for measuring the audio playback time of wireless earphones derived from domestic wireless earphone status survey, commercial product measurement test, and research analysis, and a developed standard measurement method. In addition, this paper proposes a measurement result reporting format to provide accurate information to consumers and induce a fair competitive environment for each product to manufacturers.
