TRAFFIC NOISE PREDICTION METHOD TAKING INTO ACCOUNT WEATHER CONDITIONS: A VALIDATION MEASUREMENT CAMPAIGN

摘要

Although the NMPB was validated during its preparation by comparison with measurementresults and theoretical models (boundary elements, parabolic equations), its comparison withadditional measurement results inspire less optimism. We conclude from this that the theoreticalmodels, which are only applicable to simple topographical and meteorological configurations,cannot be taken alone as a reference to validate a road traffic noise prediction method at a greatdistance from the road.
