Noise Classification of Aircrafts using Artificial Neural Networks

摘要

In this paper an algorithm for the classification of aircrafts composing the commercial fleet currently operating in the Chilean airspace is described. This classification is based on certain acoustic descriptors obtained at a specific noise monitoring point, which are used as inputs for a Feed-Forward Artificial Neural Network. As a result, determined classification groups for the evaluated aircraft models are obtained, so that aircrafts of similar size and technology belong to the same group.
