Abstract
The number of smartphone-based application software for noise measurement has been increasing recently. Some application software has complete features of the sound level meter such as frequency weighting and time averaging. They have been used for field noise measurement. However, the reliability of the smartphone-based sound level meter as a measurement instrument has not known yet. In this paper, we tested the smartphone-based sound level meter application software according to the international standard for sound level meter calibration IEC 61672. The parameter of self-generating noise, frequency weighting, and long-term stability in a fully anechoic chamber was measured. We evaluated the class of the smartphone-based sound level meter from the deviation of the measured parameter with the tolerance value described in the standard. The practical implementation of the calibration method is also discussed.
