About decibels and sound level measurement

The unit for measuring noise and sound is called a decibel. Because the decibel scale is logarithmic, a sound with an intensity that is twice that of a reference sound corresponds to an increase of about 3 decibels. The reference point of 0 decibel is set at the intensity of the least perceptible sound, the threshold of hearing. On such a scale a 10-decibel sound is 10 times the intensity of the reference sound. Highlighting this is important as already a few decibels higher or lower makes a noticeable difference in how noise is perceived.

The preferred method to describe sound levels that vary over time, resulting in a single decibel value measuring the total sound energy over the period, is called Leq. It is however common practice to measure sound levels using A-weighting, which attenuates lower and higher frequencies that the average person cannot hear. In this case the value is called LAeq.

A- and C-weighting

The A-weighting is a standard, commonly used filter that attempts to alter the measured sound pressure levels to more closely match the perception of the human ear. A-weighting makes the sound level meter less sensitive to very high (over 8000 Hz) and low frequencies (below 1000 Hz).

C-weighting also attenuates low and high frequencies, but the attenuation of low frequencies is much less severe compared to A-weighting. C-weighting is usually used for peak measurements.

Disclaimer

SmarterNoise Pro will be able to guide you in everyday indicative measure, but for demanding purposes we recommend relying on certified sound level meters. Bear in mind that mobile phone components vary in quality and setup, and the measurement results may therefore vary. Mobile phone microphones register best between 25 dB and 100 dB, as they are meant mainly for human speech.

Professional, certified, sound level meters are classified into two quality classes, one and two, where one is the most advanced level. Sound meters not certified according to these standards vary in measurement accuracy, especially when comparing results over a range of frequencies. Therefore only certified equipment will be sufficient for high accuracy measurements. Smartphone apps or affordable sound level indicators should only be used for indicative sound level measuring.

Calibrate:

Calibrate the application using the calibration tool found in the settings menu. Phones and their components vary in quality and setup so you need to calibrate the app in order for the results to be relatively comparable. One suggestion is that you close the window and door to your bedroom or bathroom, turn off appliances, and once its very quiet calibrate the app so the reading is about 30 decibel.
