Abstract:Selection of temporal and spectral properties of the auditory signal directly affects the listener ability to detect and recognize the signal. A properly designed auditory signal for mine detection operations should be resistant to predominantly low frequency environmental masking noises and easily heard by most users, many of whom suffer from high-frequency noise-induced hearing loss. In fact, high frequency hearing loss caused by noise exposure is the most common occupational illness in DOD as well as the US… Show more
