Pass-by-Noise Testing


The ever-increasing noise emission standards require the automotive industry to do complex vehicle exterior noise tests. m+p international's new Pass-by-Noise system efficiently supports the designers when doing their testing job. One man - the driver - can perform the complete pass-by-noise test within the test vehicle, thus saving time and money. The high-quality data is available in car analysis or can be post-processed in the lab. The Pass-by-Noise solution uses the complete analysis suite of m+p international's SmartOffice Analyzer. The integrated intelligent wizards allow quick and safe set-up and simple trigger setting. Other features include continuous wireless monitoring of speed, position and acceleration using a GPS system within the vehicle, automatic checks on entry speed and car position as well as engine speed tacho input.

All obtained graphical results can be copied & pasted into ActiveX compliant applications such as Microsoft Word and PowerPoint where they stay active for rescaling, changes of axis type and cursor data and much more. These active documents are accessible from any PC platform in the network. The comprehensive reporting tools also include a Visual Basic-compatible programming language to automate repetitive tasks, a MATLAB connection and a calculator allowing to perform a number of standard mathematical operations.

The Pass-by-Noise system meets requirements of ECE 51.02 & draft amendment to regulation 51, the sound level meters are in accordance with ICE 61672-1.
