This unit is taken over two successive semesters and parts 1 and 2 must be completed sequentially to fulfil the requirements of the unit.<br/><br/>The unit provides a comprehensive coverage of the physical principles of sound generation and audiological measurements. Topics covered include the physics of sound, waves and their time-domain and frequency-domain analysis, Fourier or spectral analysis, decibel scales, sound pressure measurements, microphones, loudspeakers, headphones, frequency response and sound pressure calibration, noise measurement, weighting scales and band-analysis, equal loudness contours, physics of sound source localisation, basic architectural acoustics, echo and... -- Course Website
