Abstract
Disclosed is a device, a method, and a system for analyzing and monitoring noise information and a noise type based on a noise-between-floors using an air-borne noise and a direct impact noise respectively measured by a microphone array and a sensor module array. The device, the method, and the system may provide a noise feedback for each household by analyzing and monitoring a noise level, a noise source location, a noise direction, an occurrence time, a noise type of a noise.
Claims13
A noise-between-floors measuring device comprising:
- a microphone array including a plurality of microphones disposed on a substrate, wherein each microphone of the microphone array measures an air-borne noise detected at each position of each microphone;
- a sensor module array including a plurality of sensor modules disposed on the substrate, wherein each sensor module of the sensor module array measures a direct impact noise to each sensor module detected at each position of each sensor module;
- and
- a noise analyzing unit configured for analyzing both the air-borne noise and the direct impact noise in a complementary manner, for obtaining noise information about each noise based on the analysis result, and for estimating a noise type of a combination of the air-borne noise and the direct impact noise based on the noise information.
