S ' (d, Δ SPL, a) curve family is the acoustic space transmission attenuation curve family of sound intensity a, its transverse axis is acoustic space transmission range, the longitudinal axis is the acoustic pressure difference DELTA SPL of voice signal, (d, Δ SPL, the acoustic space transmission attenuation curves coalesce that a) curve family decays to loudness a by different loudness forms described S '.
In the present embodiment, the acoustic pressure SPL of the voice signal that the measurement of main survey method, apparatus receives can measure in the following manner:
The voice signal received is converted to the level value of electric signal by described main survey method, apparatus;
Obtain the acoustic pressure SPL of the voice signal that described main survey method, apparatus receives according to described level value, such as, can converse by V (S) function the voice signal SPL value that equipment place receives.
The second ranging scheme of the present embodiment is introduced in detail below by an example:
Step 701: tested side user sends twice sound continuously.
Step 702: the acoustic pressure SPL of the voice signal that twice measurement of main survey method, apparatus receives, and calculate the difference of the acoustic pressure SPL of twice measurement, i.e. the acoustic pressure difference DELTA SPL of voice signal.
Measured the acoustic pressure SPL of each voice signal by above-mentioned level conversion, then twice acoustic pressure SPL is subtracted each other to take absolute value and obtain the acoustic pressure difference DELTA SPL of voice signal.
