Figure 4a. Test procedures for measurement of frequency shift
Carry out four measurements at each
speed specified in 4.3.1. Record two
seconds of time data centered on the
maximum sound pressure level for
each measurement. (4.4.1)
Use data from the Left or Right microphone for
further analysis corresponding to the microphone
with the lowest average sound pressure level .
Use a Hanning window and at least a 66.6% overlap
to calculate an autopower spectrum according to
the analyzer settings of 4.2
Calculate the final spectra by energetically
averaging the four individual spectra. Calculate the
vehicle speed by mathematically averaging the
measured vehicle speeds
Report vehicle speed and frequency information at
each vehicle speed of test
Calculate frequency shift according to equation 1 in
4.5 and report frequency shift according to Table 4
of 4.5
Figure 4b. Test procedures for measurement of frequency shift, Method A
Carry out one measurement at each
speed specified in 4.3.2, 4,3,3, or 4.3.4
as appropriate for the method selected.
Record five seconds of time data for
each measurement. (4.4.2)
Use data from the Left or Right microphone for
further analysis corresponding to the
microphone with the lowest sound pressure
level.
Use a Hanning window and at least a 66.6% overlap
to calculate an autopower spectrum according to
the analyzer settings of 4.2
Report vehicle speed and frequency information at
each vehicle speed of test
Calculate frequency shift according to equation 1 in
4.5 and report frequency shift according to Table 4
of 4.5
