콘서트 홀과 같은 대형 공간의 경우와는 달리, 자동차 내의 작은 공간에서는 저주파의 음향 공진으로 인하여 상대적으로 높은 크로스오버 주파수까지 재생된 사운드가 컬러링 된다. 이러한 크로스오버 주파수는 Schroeder의 'large room limit'로 결정되며, 이것은 작은 공간과 대형 공간을 구분하게 되는 기준이 된다. 이러한 컬러링을 보상하기 위해, 먼저 대역 제한된 사인 스윕 신호를 이용하여 특정 차량의 저주파 응답 범위를 크로스오버 주파수까지 측정하였다. 본 논문에서는 이렇게 측정한 저주파 응답을 이퀄라이징하는 방법에 대하여 논의한다.

The office environment is changing according to work types, Information Technology (IT) advancements, and the Coronavirus disease (COVID)-19 situation. In order for office space users to perform their tasks comfortably and efficiently, it is necessary to secure individual privacy as well as easy communication among members. In Korea, the demand for improving the acoustic performance of office spaces is also increasing, but the related performance criteria and guidelines have not been established. In this study, standardization of office space acoustic performance measurement and evaluation methods and European countries' acoustic performance criteria were compared and reviewed. It is proposed to comprehensively review international standardization trends and acoustic performance standards in each country and to establish and utilize criteria for evaluating the acoustic performance and satisfaction of office spaces in Korea through our survey. Considering the international standardization direction and compatibility with communication and Public Address (PA) systems, it is appropriate to establish criteria using the speech transmission index or Speech Transmission Index (STI) application index. This criterion will be highly utilizable and compatible. In addition, since the office furniture industry is interested in improving the acoustic performance of office space, it is necessary to establish a labelling system for speech level reduction of office furniture.

This paper describes the acoustical conditions of elementary school and high school classrooms as well as university classrooms in Korea and suggests a need for Korean acoustic standards and guidelines for classroom design. Current standards and guidelines of classroom acoustics in several countries were briefly introduced to understand their acoustical performance criteria for background noise levels and reverberation times, and noise isolation design requirements in various types of classrooms. The results of several acoustic survey of domestic classrooms in elementary school, high school, and university were described and compared to provide information of the acoustic characteristics of Korean school classrooms. The survey includes occupied and unoccupied data on the acoustical conditions, noise levels, and noise isolation performance in the classrooms. Acoustical parameter values for achieving 'good' speech intelligibility in active university classrooms were also presented.

Human tend to rely their information about the size of a space on vision. However, it might be a common experience to perceive a certain difference in spaces without any visual difference, in such spaces as rooms for music performance, multimedia environments with multiple sound sources, and car cabins, where auditory experiences have a certain importance. In the present work, apparent auditory room size was measured at different positions in a room through a series of listening experiments. Also, measurement of room acoustic parameters was carried out and their relationships with perceived auditory room size were analyzed. The results suggest that apparent auditory room sizes were largely dependent on musical clarity, distance between a source and a receiver, and sound pressure level at the listening position. Also, the results from acoustic preference test suggest that smaller apparent room sizes were preferred for listening to orchestral, cello and flute music. The relationship between apparent auditory room size and vocal music was found to be statistically insignificant.

본 논문에서는 공간에 위치한 음원으로부터 양 귀에 들리는 음향을 좌우 대칭형 스피커를 이용하여 재현하는 기술에 대한 문제점, 즉 좌우 스피커와 양 귀의 음압전달 특성에 수반되는 Cross-talk 제거와 음향학적 모델 선정에 대한 문제점들을 우선 소개한다. 이러한 문제점을 해결할 수 있는 Transaural 필터의 모델 제시와 본 모델의 음향학적 특성을 고찰한다. 본 연구에서는 인간 청각 기관의 공간 인지량적 인자인 ILB(interaural Level Difference)와 ITD(Tnteraural Time Difference)의 개념을 이용한 새로운 Cross-talk 제거 방법과 그리고 청각기관의 "Masking" 특성을 이용한 Transaural 필터의 진폭 보상 방법을 새로이 제안한다. 끝으로 제안된 기법은 음색 왜곡과 음질 저하를 최소화할 수 있는 장점 뿐 아니라 현장 음향 기사들이 직접 음향제작에 적용할 수 있는 장점 또한 제공한다.

Speech may not be clearly understandable in the room that is highly reverberant, due to the loss of consonants intelligibility. Therefore, it is very important to obtain a high sound pressure level of direct sound in reverberant room. A properly designed sound reinforcement system can not provide the good speech intelligibility without the absorption treatments of walls. With using the highly directional speaker, we can transmit the sound energy into only the areas where people are sitting. This can be help to improve the speech intelligibility. In this paper, even in reverberant rooms, it will be shown that the good speech intelligibility can be obtained by only the directivity control of speaker without the room treatment. Also, it would be more improved by the properly room tuning using an equalizer.

In this study, the reverberation characteristics of coupled spaces were investigated using a scale model. Two rooms were connected through an acoustically transparent opening known as an aperture. The acoustic characteristics of the coupled room by varying three parameters, the aperture opening size, the absorption ratio between the two rooms and the locations of the secondary room, were measured and analysed. The results indicated that a reverberant secondary room, produced large variations of the acoustics in the main room and an absorptive secondary room was effective to provide systematic control of the acoustics in the main room. The reverberant secondary room should be located at the rear of the stage and the aperture opening ratio over 6.25% produced large variations of the acoustics in the main room. However, the aperture opening ratio over 25% had no effect on variations of the acoustics in the main room. The absorptive secondary room should be located at the rear of the audience areas and the aperture opening ratio over 3.13% produced large variations of the acoustics in the main room.

멀티미디어 기술의 발달로 그래픽을 포함한 영상데이터의 사용이 급증하고 있다. 멀티미디어 및 가상현실 응용 시스템은 그래픽을 포함한 영상과 음향이 동기화 되어 제공될 경우 사용자의 현장감과 몰입감을 증대시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 가정용 비디오를 통하여 입력되는 일련의 영상데이타로부터 관심있는 물체의 운동을 추적함으로 물체가 발생시키는 충돌음을 공간적으로 동기화 하여 생성하는 이미지 기반 영상/음향 동기화 기술의 개발에 관하여 논의한다. 대용량의 영상데이터에 대하여 실시간으로 음향을 동기화시키는 것은 현재 기술로 불가능하며, 본 논문에서는 영상과 음향의 공간적 동기화 기술에 대하여 기술한다.
