Background: Noise has been linked to an increased risk of various health issues, including stress, anxiety, insomnia, and cardiovascular disorders. However, research on the relationship between residential traffic noise and mental health in South Korea is limited. Objectives: This study aims to examine the correlation between regional traffic noise levels and mental health using an ecological study design. Methods: In this ecological study, all data were collected from the Korean Statistical Information Service. Traffic noise data in residential areas and the prevalence of mental health indices in 44 cities with noise monitoring stations were obtained. Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated to assess the relationship between regional traffic noise levels and mental health indices. Results: Daytime traffic noise levels were found to have a positive correlation with stress perception (r=0.428, p=0.004) and showed a borderline positive correlation with depressive symptom prevalence (r=0.273, p=0.073). In cities with airports, significant correlations was observed between 24-hour average noise levels and depressive symptoms (r=0.604, p=0.010), whereas this relationship was not observed in cities without airports (r=0.048, p=0.813). Multiple regression analysis, which adjusted for factors such as age, gender ratio, smoking, obesity, unemployment, urban size, and the presence of an airport, confirmed the relationship between 24-hour average noise levels and stress perception (beta=0.287, p=0.024). Conclusions: This study identified correlations between regional traffic noise levels and depressive symptoms or stress perception in adults, with a more pronounced effect in areas with airports. These findings suggest a potential impact of residential traffic noise on mental health, highlighting the importance of preventive measures like noise management in urban planning to promote mental well-being.

철도소음·진동은 철도변에 거주하는 인근 주민들에게 커다란 불만족 인자로 등장하고 있다. 특히, 철도소음은 철도변에 거주하는 주민들에게 정신적, 심리적, 육체적으로 심각한 영향을 미치고 있으며 이로인해 철도변에 거주하는 주민들은 많은 괴로움을 호소하고 있는 실정이며, 특히 본 설문조사 결과 철도변 주민들은 경제적인 보상보다는 쾌적한 주거환경에 더 많은 관심을 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그럼에도 불구하고 국내의 경우 철도소음에 대한 심각성은 인식하고 있지만 구체적인 자료의 축적 및 연구가 이루어지지 않아 효율적인 대책수립이 매우 어려운 실정이다. 이러한 관점에서 본 연구에서는 철도변 주민들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 철도소음의 실태 및 영향을 파악해 보았으며, 이를 토대로 향후 효율적인 철도소음의 대책수립 및 철도소음에 대한 세부적인 기준설정을 위한 기초적인 자료를 제시하고자 한다.

Urban pollution has been a problem in China since ancient times. In modern times, pollution was aggravated by industrialization and urbanization and became closely related to people's lives. Shanghai was the industrial center and the most urbanized place of modern China. As a price, it needed to face extremely serious urban pollution, and the treatment of this problem involved all aspects of social life. Noise pollution let foreigners to interpret the Chinese people and the city of Shanghai from a cultural perspective, and let Chinese residents to understand Shanghai and the nation from a civilized perspective. Pollution regulation made Shanghai the first city in modern China to implement overall pollution control and levy environmental protection fees. It also enabled the Chinese to gradually fight for their rights in urban governance. Urban pollution also brought business opportunities; in the highly commercial city of Shanghai, it promoted the development of some industries. The experience of urban pollution and its treatment prompted the people of Shanghai to rethink and re-recognize modern civilization, and also promoted the formation of Shanghai urban community.

부산시 환경소음수준의 연속적 측정이 가능한 소음자동측정 망의 합리적 설치 운영은 부산시의 정온한 환경구축 정책 수립을 위한 중요한 관건이 될 수 있다. 도시 내의 환경소음 수준은 지역 환경수준에 영향을 미치는 제반 요인들의 복합적 작용에 의하여 결정된다. 따라서 정확한 환경소음수준의 측정이 선결되어야만 올바른 환경소음 개선대책의 수립과 추진이 가능하다. 현재 국내에서는 환경소음 실태파악 및 소음저감정책 기초 자료의 확보를 위해 최근에 소음자동측정 망을 구축 중에 있다. 또한 소음측정 망이 설치 운영되는 지역의 경우 측정망 자료의 공개를 통하여 해당 지역의 환경소음 수준을 표시하고 있으나, 측정결과가 시민들이 느끼는 체감 소음을 제대로 반영하지 못하는 것으로 인식되고 있다. 가장 주된 논거는 측정 자료의 신뢰성 부족과 측정망의 불합리한 설치장소로 요약할 수 있다. 본 연구는 현재 부산시 지역에 설치되어 있는 8개 소음자동측정 망의 설치 운영실태 분석에 주안점을 두고 있다.

In this paper the Wideband DS/CDMA system capacity variation is analyzed by the impact of imperfect sectorization and man-made noise, which is more predominant in urban area than thermal noise. In general man-made noise is increasing as the electronic machines are increasing nowadays. It shows that user capacity and cell radius variation are much sensitive by the man-made noise.

Construction noise is among the most critical stressors that adversely affect the quality of life of the people residing near construction sites. Many countries strictly regulate construction noise based on sound pressure levels, as well as timeslots and type of construction equipment. However, individuals react differently to noise, and their tolerance to noise levels varies, which should be considered when regulating construction noise. Although studies have attempted to analyze individuals' stress responses to construction noise, the lack of quantitative methods to measure stress has limited our understanding of individuals' stress responses to noise. Therefore, the authors proposed a quantitative stress measurement framework with a wearable electroencephalogram (EEG) sensor to decipher human brain wave patterns caused by diverse construction stressors (e.g., worksite hazards). This present study extends this framework to investigate the feasibility of using the wearable EEG sensor to measure individuals' emotional stress responses to construction noise in a laboratory setting. EEG data were collected from three subjects exposed to different construction noises (e.g., tonal vs. impulsive noises, different sound pressure levels) recorded at real construction sites. Simultaneously, the subjects' perceived stress levels against these noises were measured. The results indicate that the wearable EEG sensor can help understand diverse individuals' stress responses to nearby construction noises. This research provides a more quantitative means for measuring the impact of the noise generated at a construction site on neighboring communities, which can help frame more reasonable construction noise regulations that consider various types of residents in urban areas.
