2. Monitoring background
Urban environmental noise occupies a very important position in noise measurement. It mainly
comes from traffic noise, industrial noise and social life noise. Due to the increasing number of
motor vehicles and supersonic aircraft in cities, the noise generated by transportation vehicles has
become one of the main pollution sources of urban environmental noise. The purpose of
environmental noise monitoring is to timely and accurately grasp the current situation of urban
noise, analyze its changing trends and laws, understand the degree and scope of various noise
sources, and provide systematic monitoring data for urban noise management, control and
scientific research. In this experiment, the Weihai campus of Beijing Jiaotong University and the
traffic noise around the campus were selected for monitoring, and the sampling point, sampling
time and frequency were determined, and the environmental noise of the campus and the
surrounding environment was evaluated.

3. Monitoring purpose and requirement

3.1 Purpose
1. Through this experiment, enable students to master the process and method of making noise
monitoring plan, and learn the layout and optimization of monitoring points;
2. Master the use of sound level meters;
3. Retrieval and application of the quality standards of the society;
4. Perform acoustic environmental quality assessment based on monitoring data.
5. Able to communicate and communicate on monitoring issues and monitoring results.

3.2 Requirement
1. The monitoring points can be optimally arranged according to the changes in the specific
conditions of the monitored objects, the monitoring time and frequency can be selected, and the
monitoring plan can be formulated.
2. Be able to use sound level meter proficiently and calibrate it with standard source.
3. Perform acoustic environmental quality assessment based on monitoring data.
4. Independently prepare monitoring reports.

4. Monitoring Methods
4.1 Apparatus and method of use
The experiment uses HS6220 sound level meter. The method of use is as follows:
(1) Remove the protective cover from the head of the sound level meter and install a condenser
microphone.
(2) Open the battery cover, correctly insert four AA batteries according to the positive and
negative poles, and buckle the battery cover.
(3) Turn the "switch" button to the "on" position, turn on the power, and check the battery voltage.
If the display shows sufficient voltage, the instrument can be used for measurement, otherwise the
battery should be replaced.
(4) The sound level meter is fixed on a tripod, the sound level meter is 1.2m away from the
ground, the microphone is pointed at the sound source, and the sound level meter should be as far
away from the human body as possible to reduce the influence of the human body on the
measurement.
(5) The "quick and slow" button is in the "slow" position, the frequency weighting switch is in the
"A" position, the "measurement and setting" switch is in the "measurement" position, and the
"maximum hold" button is released at the same time.

4.2 Monitoring procedure (Determination of sampling points, time and

frequency)
1. Measurement conditions
Weather conditions require operations to be carried out during hours without rain or snow. The
sound level meter should be equipped with a windshield to avoid wind noise interference. The
windshield must be added for winds above level 3, and the measurement should be stopped for
strong winds above level 4.
2. Measurement location
We selected five locations in the school: classrooms, corridors of the teaching building, the first
floor of the canteen, dormitories, and playgrounds for one day's measurement.
3. Measuring method
①A sound level meter is provided for every 5 persons to perform measurement, recording and
monitoring respectively.
②Measure once at three time points in the morning, middle and evening, and each measurement is
10 minutes.
③The reading mode adopts the slow gear, and an instantaneous sound level A is read every 5s, and
200 data are read continuously.

4.3 Data processing

Traffic noise is random noise that fluctuates over time, so the measurement result is generally
expressed by continuous equivalent A sound level or statistical sound level.
①Calculation of continuous equivalent A sound level: The monitoring data obtained in the table is
superimposed according to energy to obtain LPT, and the continuous equivalent A sound level is
calculated by the following formula:

If 200 data are taken, Leq = Lm-23

②Calculation of statistical sound level: Arrange the N data obtained from large to small, find out
the 10% data is L10, the 50% data is L50, and the 90% data is L90, press Calculate the equivalent
sound level Leq and standard deviation σ.

(where d=L10-L90)

List the L10, L50, L90 and Lep values of each monitoring point and find the average value.
