The effects of high noise levels on the acoustic-phonetic structure of speech: A preliminary investigation
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to provide some preliminary data concerning the acoustic-phonetic structure of speech produced under high noise levels. Acoustical measurements were made of a set of sentences spoken by four subjects in two conditions: the 95dB noise condition and the no-noise condition. Sentences produced under 95dB noise were different from sentences produced under ambient noise in both durational and spectral characteristics.
