EQUIVALENT SOUND LEVEL AND ITS RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER NOISE MEASURES
DEVELOPMENT OF EQUIVALENT SOUND LEVEL
The accumulated evidence of research on human response to sound indicates clearly that the magnitude of sound as a function of frequency and time are basic indicators of human response to sound. These factors are reviewed here, and it is concluded that it is not necessary to invent a new concept for the purpose of identifying levels of environmental noise.
Magnitude
Sound is a pressure fluctuation in the air; the magnitude of the sound describes the physical sound in the air; (loudness, on the other hand, refers to how people judge the sound when they hear it). Magnitude is stated in terms of the amplitude of the pressure fluctuation. The range of magnitude between the faintest audible sound and the loudest sound the ear can withstand is so enormous (a ratio of about 1,000,000 to I ) that it would be very awkward to express sound pressure fluctuations directly in pressure units. Instead, this range is "compressed" by expressing the sound pressure on a logarithmic scale. Thus, sound is described in terms of the sound pressure level (SPL), which is ten times the common logarithm of the ratio of the square of the sound pressure in question to the square of a (stated or understood) reference sound pressure, almost always 20 micropascals. * Or, in mathematical terms, sound pressure level L expressed in decibels is:

where p is the pressure fluctuation and po is the reference pressure.
*One pascal = one newton per square meter.
