Abstract
Abstract Noise abatement procedures (NAPs) are considered as a necessary measure for a balanced approach of noise control around airports. Their correct implementation depends upon many factors, which vary in operation and influence the efficiency of the NAPs. Any system, which defines the correct features of the NAPs for particular aircraft in specific conditions, would be useful for noise control. Thus, implementation of noise level monitoring systems, currently used around airports, gives a noise map in residential areas but cannot identify source frequencies and their impact on the environment. Consequently, this paper has been produced particularly to characterize the frequential aspect of aircraft noise emission. Its main objective is the analysis of the dominant frequencies emitted during approaches to the Lyon Saint-Exupéry International Airport (France) having a negative impact on the population living around this airport. Thus, the results obtained make it possible to show, through an empirical model of aircraft noise, the effectiveness of this experimental work.
Highlights
Environmental compatibility of aircraft operations is a critical issue that impacts the growth of commercial aviation
This paper is directed towards the search of the dominant pure frequencies of turbojet aircraft emitted during approaches which are responsible for noise disturbances surrounding airports
Dominant pure frequencies were observed and their analysis reveals an agreement with theoretical works
Summary
Environmental compatibility of aircraft operations is a critical issue that impacts the growth of commercial aviation. The aircraft manufacturers foresee a demand for aircraft to cope with the increased traffic and fleet renewal in the coming years. This growth will be faced with two major challenges: 1. Transport will have to increase frequency and the flexibility of operations despite the anticipated shortage of oil. This environmental problem can only be solved within the framework of a balanced global vision for a sustainable air transport involving new technology engines and fuselages [17], breakthrough technologies, the design of new procedures and flight paths [35], airspace management, new regulation rules and certification [8]. The lack of a clear link between the certified noise levels defined by aircraft manufacturers and noise levels
