Background noise

Japanese: 暗騒音 - あんそうおん
Background noise
The total noise other than the target noise that occurs in the surrounding environment of the target noise. When measuring noise, if the difference between the noise volume when the target noise is occurring and the noise volume when it is not occurring (background noise) is 10 phon or more, it is considered that there is no effect from the background noise. Also, if the difference is 2 phon or less, the target noise is considered to be smaller than the background noise. (→Environmental noise)
