Self-Reciprocity Calibration of Electroacoustic Transducers

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA044700 | Open PDF

Abstract:

By an extension of the reciprocity principle for the absolute measurement of sound, it is demonstrated that a calibration may be obtained on a single transducer without the aid of auxiliary transducers. Measurements using the technique are described and shown to give satisfactory agreement with conventional calibrations.
