OS-2750 Fluctuation Sound Analysis Pack

OS-2000 Series

New concept of sound evaluation parameter enables extraction of annoying sound. Best-suited to the sound evaluation of time fluctuation

Fluctuation Sound Analyzer the OS-2750 is package software consists of the OS-2700 and plug-in options including fluctuation sound analyzer which is developed with new concept of sound quality evaluation parameter.
This software makes clear sound features based on the two axes of frequency and fluctuating frequency by using new concept of [time fluctuation] as well as six parameters of physical quantities such as loudness, sharpness, roughness, fluctuation strength, AI (Articulation Index), tonality.

Roughness for representing the roughness of sound, or fluctuation strength for representing the fluctuation of sound serve is one of the analysis parameters based on time axis. But each parameter has an advantage and disadvantage when evaluating fluctuating sound in a wide range of frequencies.

Fluctuation sound analyzer provides a parameter that is capable of dealing with a wide range of variable frequencies. There are plenty of sounds that annoy you even though they are not so loud. The OS-2750 fluctuation sound analyzer can make clear features of such sound quality and perform more sophisticated analysis than with conventional techniques. Using the OS-2750 achieves improving of sound quality, cost reduction of test, speed-up of development period and so on.

Features

Capable of intuitive timbre evaluation. Various fluctuating sound cycles as well as six parameters of physical quantities can be displayed in a single color map. (six parameters: loudness, sharpness, roughness, fluctuation strength, AI (Articulation Index) and tonality)

Effective to extract only fluctuating components hidden in background noise with large level

Up to four specified fluctuation components of time trend can be overlaid at the same time.

IIR filter function can reproduce recorded data before and after passing through frequency filter in real time. You can change filter coefficient freely while hearing those sound to perform re-analysis of the data.

Comparison of multiple files and multiple search conditions allows smooth analyses.

Large amount of data processing and data mining greatly help efficient and speedy data analysis/evaluation.

Variable frequency range can be set from 0.5 Hz so that the sound having slowly-fluctuating components can be extracted.

Example of fluctuation sound analysis

Knocking sound during fuel injection (humming sound)

The figure1 on the below shows the result of performing FFT analysis. A striped pattern seen in the 5 kHz band is the humming sound. Since the background noise of the low frequency band (800 kHz or less) is high, it is extremely hard to extract this temporal fluctuating component from such a level. The figure2 shows the result of performing Fluctuation sound analysis for the same sound. The squares where the frequency axis (horizontal axis) representing the high and low timbre and the variable frequency axis (vertical axis) representing the period of temporal fluctuation intersect at 5 kHz and 25 Hz, are displayed in a strong color as characteristics of the humming sound.

T/M gear rattling noise<rattling noise>

Since the gear rattling noise having frequency components in the 800 Hz frequency band is hidden in the background noise, any characteristics cannot be found by FFT analysis (Figure1). The squares where the horizontal axis representing the timbre and the vertical axis representing variable period intersect at 800 Hz and 20 Hz, are displayed in a strong color as characteristics of the rattling noise (Figure2). Fluctuation sound analysis enables evaluation of various temporal fluctuation characteristics that can hardly be detected by the amount of the sound level.
