Title: Product Sound Quality of Vehicle Noise – A Permanent Challenge for NVH Measurement Technologies
text: Sound quality of vehicle is more and more an important product feature which significantly influences the perceived product quality. Over recent years, the broad variety of new models, which resulted in increased competition, has lead to rising customer demands with regard to NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) aspects. Apart from the indispensable troubleshooting, the acoustic engineer's scope of work is extended to NVH design engineering. Thus, innovative, ambitious measurement technologies were developed to meet these new, challenging tasks and to maintain a competitive advantage.
