METHO] OF MEASUREII.I[ENT
General.
Curves showing the opon-circuit rosponse of the micro-
phone to plane waves incident at various angles in the
horizontal and vertical planes appear in Figs. 2 - 5.
These curves can be oorrected to apply to the loaded con-
dition by means of Fig. 6(a). A ourve replotted from the
manufacturers' data, and also referring to the loaded Qon-
dition, is shown in Fig. 7; it differs markedly from our
measurements (a) in the irregul~rity of the high-frequency
responso, (b) in the frequenoies of ribbon resonanoe, and
(0) in the absolute sensitivity.
~\[PEDANC~E
TRANSIENT RESPONS~
S¥pITIVIT.!.
The open-circuit sensitivity of the miorophone in the
mid-band regio~ i~ approximately - 90 db relative to
1 volt/dyne/cm. At the teroinals of an ideal 23 ohmg390 ohm
transformer the open-cirouit sensitivity would be about
- 79 db. The oorresponding figure for the type AXBT Llioro-
11hone is - 71 db.
The manufacturers' fi5~re for the sensitivity is - 85 db
relative to 1 mW/d:[Ff!e/o,o2 in 20 ohms q On the basis of a
4 -
,
20 ohm res:i.stive impedanoe this oorresponds to - 96 db
relative to 1 volt/dyne/cm 2 open-oirouit, or - 84 db
referred to an impedance of 300 ohms.
