The duration time of aircraft noise event is also an important factor for the evaluation of civil aircraft noise, which is considered as a notable characteristic of military aircraft noise. SEL is proved as a suitable noise metric for the measuring military aircraft noise of various flight pattern considering the duration time of noise event. This study reviews whether SEL is a suitable for measuring civil aircraft noise and study shows SEL is fairly compensating the duration time of civil aircraft noise event for the evaluation of aircraft noise. Noise metric for the evaluation aircraft noise based on SEL is more appropriate than based on $L_{MAX}$ for compensating duration time of noise event either military aircraft or civil aircraft. In this reason, current formula of WECPNL based on energy average of measured $L_{MAX}$ for the evaluation of aircraft noise impact in 'Test Method of Noise and Vibration of Korea' is recommended to be amended to formula of WECPNL based on energy average of measured SEL considering compensation of noise event duration time, if WECPNL is not based on measured EPNL, a metric compensating duration time.

Studies of community annoyance caused by civil aircraft noise exposure were carried out in fifteen areas near Gimpo and Gimhae international airports, Korea, to accumulate social survey data in Korea and to assess the relationship between aircraft noise level and degree of annoyance. Aircraft noise levels were measured automatically by airport noise monitoring system, B&K type 3597. A social survey was carried out people living within In meters of noise measurement points, as a rule. Questionnaires were only aggregated face-to-face interviews using various questions which concerned with demographic, degree of noise annoyance, interference with daily activities and health-related symptoms. The questions of noise annoyance were answered on an 11-point numerical scale. The respondents, from 18 to 70 years of age, were randomly selected and completed the questionnaire themselves. The total number of respondents for the questionnaires was 554.

This paper describes the problems in measuring and evaluating the aviation noises and the differences on the noise characteristics between fighter and civil aircraft. From a standpoint of the duration time for aviation noise and the dynamic characteristics related with the sampling time, the measured values for landing and taking-off noises from the fighter are presented and explained in comparison with those from the civil aircraft. And also the aviation noises by the fighter and civil aircraft are evaluated by equivalent sound level and WECPNL, respectively. From the obtained results, it is recommended that the duration time and dynamic characteristics be deeply considered in evaluating and measuring the aviation noises, since they have a great influence on the final assessment results. As the number of flight is not sufficient and the noise source is strong impulse type, moreover, the aviation noise should be assessed by WECPNL.

The noise problem has been a public interest for several years in Korea. Especially, the noises which were emitted from aircrafts on the airport and in the air have injurious effects on people over a vast range. Hence, there need vast data on the aircraft noise to evaluate the effect of various parameters. In present study, the works which consist of social surveys and noise measurements were conducted at points near the airport and the airbase. Total of 1,784 participants give effective responses in forty-five areas nearby the measurement points. Questionnaires asked the responses concerned with attitude, noise sensitivity, directive effects, secondary effects, annoyance and attempts to lower noise level exposed. From the field survey, the doseresponse relationship of community response to aircraft noise was established and there are different characteristics between civil and military aircraft. Though the study is still continuing on a few interest, one among some results is that %HA (%highly annoyed) of civil aircraft is higher than military's under the 70 WECPNL.

Korean 'Law of Aviation' and 'Test Method of Measuring Noise and Vibration' designate to use WECPNL metric based on $L_{max}$ measurement for the accessment of aircraft noise in Korea. However, time duration of noise event can not be considered in $L_{max}$ metric in principle, compensation on the duration has been utilized. A study was done recently to evaluate appropriate duration compensation for the accessment of military aircraft noise under current metric of WECPNL and $L_{max}$. This study was carried out to evaluate what metric is the most appropriate to express aircraft noise including time duration of single noise event, computing and comparing noise exposure with 1 second noise measurement data of military aircraft in $L_{max}$, $L_{Aeq,\;T}$ and SEL. This study shows SEL is the most appropriate noise metric for the evaluation of noise exposure with time duration such as aircraft noise without compensation. It is suggested to use SEL noise metric instead of $L_{max}$ noise metric with duration compensation for the aircraft noise accessment either military aircraft or civilian aircraft.

In this study, damages due to the aircraft noise were examined in more than 190 elementary, middle and high schools near the airports in Korea, and the persecutory idea forecast model was established using the quantification theory type II. Via the survey of 1,012 teachers in the schools, a class interference forecast model was established, and the noise characteristics of five areas, four military/civil common-use airports and one shooting range, were examined. The following conclusions were made from the study. WECPNL values in the five military/civil common-use airports showed that all of them were Class 1 or 2 affected areas, which indicated that they had serious aircraft noise problems to be addressed. The most influential factor in the aircraft noise persecutory idea model was the distance between the airport and the school. It showed a positive relationship at a distance of less than 5 km, and a negative relationship at a distance of 10 km or more. The number and time of aircraft noise exposure as well as the types of airports and window structures had strong influences. The forecast model had a correlation ratio of 0.56, which indicates that it is highly appropriate. In the class interference factor analysis, the time and number of aircraft noise exposure were strong influential factors, and the results varied according to the service duration and sex of teachers. This model had a correlation ratio of 0.61, which indicates it is highly appropriate.

소음특성이 서로 다른 군용 항공기 소음과 민간 항공기 소음을 환경부에서 고시한 소음 진동공정시험방법에 의거하여 소음을 측정하고 평가하는데는 개선되어야 할 문제점이 뒤따른다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 민간 항공기와 군용 항공기의 소음특성으로 조사하고 소음 측정 및 평가방법에 대한 문제점들을 고찰하였다. 연구결과로 부터, 민간 항공기나 군용 항공기의 정확한 소음측정을 위해서는 동특성을 빠름(Fast)으로 설정하여 측정하는 것이 바람직한 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 등가 소음도를 측정하여 항공기 소음을 평가하는 방식은 민간 항공기 소음평가시에는 적절하지만, 이를 군용 항공기 소음에 적용하여 평가할 때에는 상당한 오차를 포함하는 것으로 조사되었다. 그리고 군용 항공기 이 착륙지점에서의 소음 지속시간이 대부분 30초를 초과하는 것으로 조사되었기 때문에, 군용 항공기 소음평가시에는 지속시간에 대한 보정이 반드시 반영되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

This paper deals with the process of estimating the environmental noise generated from the actual flying aircraft using the noise measurement results obtained through the wind tunnel test and verifying it through flight tests. In order to evaluate the environmental noise of an aircraft, noise tests and evaluations are generally conducted according to the procedures prescribed by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). In this paper, we introduced environmental noise evaluation method that can be applied to composite both fixed-wing aircraft and multi-copter, and introduced the evaluation method by experiment. This paper introduces the process of simulating the noise test results measured in the wind tunnel test using real flight test results. In addition, in consideration of flight operating conditions and noise measurement methods proposed by the ICAO, the effective perceived noise level (EPNL) was predicted by performing both the wind tunnel test and the aircraft flight test.
