Roughness and its Relation to the Time — Pattern of Psychoacoustical Excitation

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Communication and Cybernetics ((COMMUNICATION,volume 8))

Abstract

The sensation of roughness is produced by sounds with a strong time structure, such as amplitude-modulated sounds. For single sinusoidally amplitude-modulated tones, the dependence of roughness on the important physical parameters (degree of modulation, modulation frequency, carrier frequency, SPL) was systematically studied by TERHARDT (1968/a,b;1974), but there are only few investigations about the roughness of more complex sounds.
