Airborne sound not only encompasses the realm of human speech communication but also includes infrasound and ultrasound, which are extensively utilized in technical and medical fields. This usage requires an understanding of its properties, which can be described by the temporal and spatial variations of pressure changes in the sound field. Various methods are available for converting sound parameters into recordable values. Among these, the conversion into electrical voltages using microphones is the most prominent. Depending on the required accuracy, different construction methods are employed. This volume addresses the properties and possibilities of various solutions, the associated limitations of sound measurement, and provides an outlook on future developments.
