  2. Decibel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decibel

    The decibel originates from methods used to quantify signal loss in telegraph and telephone circuits. Until the mid-1920s, the unit for loss was miles of standard cable (MSC). 1 MSC corresponded to the loss of power over one mile (approximately 1.6 km) of standard telephone cable at a frequency of 5000 radians per second (795.8 Hz), and matched closely the smallest attenuation detectable to a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_power

    1 dB = ⁠ 1 / 20 ⁠ ln 10 is the decibel. The commonly used reference sound power in air is [11] = . The proper notations for sound power level using this reference are L W/(1 pW) or L W (re 1 pW), but the suffix notations dB SWL, dB(SWL), dBSWL, or dB SWL are very common, even if they are not accepted by the SI.

  5. Sound reduction index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_Reduction_Index

    The Sound Reduction Index is expressed in decibels (dB). It is the weighted sound reduction index for a partition or single component only. This is a laboratory-only measurement, which uses knowledge of the relative sizes of the rooms in the test suite, and the reverberation time in the receiving room, and the known level of noise which can pass between the rooms in the suite by other routes ...

  6. Sound transmission class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_transmission_class

    A 0.1% open area will reduce the transmission loss from 40 dB to 30 dB, which is typical of walls where caulking has not been applied effectively [26] Partitions that are inadequately sealed and contain back-to-back electrical boxes, untreated recessed lighting and unsealed pipes offer flanking paths for sound and significant leakage.

  7. Signal strength in telecommunications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_strength_in...

    For very low-power systems, such as mobile phones, signal strength is usually expressed in dB-microvolts per metre (dBμV/m) or in decibels above a reference level of one milliwatt . In broadcasting terminology, 1 mV/m is 1000 μV/m or 60 dBμ (often written dBu).
