3. Experimental characterization
What is the purpose of experimental data in environmental acoustics? Generally speaking, they are intended to :
Expanding knowledge: experimental campaigns help to increase knowledge of the physical processes involved in acoustic propagation: ground effects, micrometeorological effects, etc. (see section 1 ). They must therefore quantify both the relevant acoustic...
