NOISE FROM COMPLEX ROAD TRAFFIC

THE NOISE FROM FREELY FLOWING TRAFFIC IS CALCULATED CONSIDERING TRAFFIC MIXES, NUMEROUS ROADS, BARRIERS, AND OTHER INFLUENCES THAT CAN BE APPROXIMATED BY THE SUPERPOSITION OF CONTRIBUTIONS FROM STATISTICALLY INDEPENDENT ELEMENTS. THE BASIC STATISTICAL PARAMETERS DERIVED ARE THE CUMULANTS OF THE INTENSITY DISTRIBUTION. SUBSEQUENTLY, APPROXIMATIONS ARE GIVEN FOR THE STANDARD DEVIATION OF THE SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL AND PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTIONS OF THE SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL ARE SHOWN FOR TYPICAL TRAFFIC MIXES. /AUTHOR/
