Title: Tools For Sound Quality Analysis In Complex Sound Fields
text: As worldwide competition for agricultural and construction equipment increases, manufacturers need to distinguish their products in areas such as operator comfort and perceived quality. Advances in digital audio recording and high speed computers have presented the noise and vibration engineer with the possibility of new tools and techniques for analyzing and processing sound. This paper discusses some of the recent developments in sound quality analysis in passenger cars and how they can be applied to similar engineering problems in off-highway vehicles.
