There are several filter design software packages ranging from simple calculators to sophisticated CAD programs. Luckily for hams and other experimenters, there are plenty of free or low-cost programs to try (see the sidebar).
This is where the value of easy-to-use design software becomes apparent. Instead of re-starting a laborious design process, simply re-enter new specifications and try again. Return to the Design tab and increase the filter order from 3 to 4, then click Plot. Performance is improved but attenuation still varies by more than 10 dB across 160 meters.

Brüel & Kjær recommends that you always use the most current software available. New versions of the analyzer software, which you may want to install on your analyzer, are available for download via the BZ-5503 Measurement Partner Suite. Brüel & Kjær invites all their Type 2250, 2270 and 2250 Light users to upgrade their instrument software to the latest version completely free of charge.
National bodies that type approve sound level meters generally approve specific versions of the sound level meter software. Whenever Brüel & Kjær revises software an extension of the approval is applied for. However, new versions can be published on this site before the new approvals are finalised.If your use of your 2250/2270 relies on the use of an approved version you should check with your type approving authority, or with your local Brüel & Kjær representative, before installing a new version.
The ATEM Software Control app unlocks the hidden power of ATEM SDI and allows access to every feature in the switcher. ATEM Software Control features a visual switcher user interface with parameter palettes for making quick adjustments. Although you can normally connect via USB, if you connect using Ethernet it's possible for multiple users to connect to ATEM SDI using separate copies of ATEM Software Control on different computers! The software lets you access full audio mixing with effects, load still frames and even do advanced macro programming! You can even save the switcher state as an XML file! If you need clip playback, you can even control HyperDeck disk recorders via Ethernet.

The far field is the space outside the near field, meaning that the far field begins at a point at least one wavelength distance from the noise source. Standard sound level meters (i.e., type I and type II) are reliable in this field, but the measurements are influenced by whether the noise is simply originating from a source (free field) or being reflected back from surrounding surfaces (reverberant field).
As sound power radiates from a point source in free space, it is distributed over a spherical surface so that at any given point, there exists a certain sound power per unit area. This is designated as intensity, I, and is expressed in units of watts per square meter.
Due to the growth of metropolitan areas and tightening of fiscal belts, the need for effective and financially viable freeway management tools is unprecedented. This primer poses ramp metering as a potential tool to address commonly occurring congestion and safety issues. Despite initial opposition and skepticism from various stakeholders, ramp metering has been deployed, sustained, and even expanded in many regions. This primer incorporates recent research on challenges agencies experience during their attempts to deploy or expand ramp metering in their regions.
Ramp meters are traffic signals installed on freeway on-ramps to control the frequency at which vehicles enter the flow of traffic on the freeway. Ramp metering reduces overall freeway congestion by managing the amount of traffic entering the freeway and by breaking up platoons that make it difficult to merge onto the freeway. As seen in Figure 1, vehicles traveling from an adjacent arterial onto the ramp form a queue behind the stop line. The vehicles are then individually released onto the mainline, often at a rate that is dependent on the mainline traffic volume and speed at that time. The configuration in the diagram is the most common; however, some agencies have altered this design to accommodate transit and high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) policies or existing geometric limitations.
Ramp metering is one of many strategies in the realm of freeway management and operations that agencies use to operate the existing freeway network at full potential. Successful operation of ramp metering systems leads toward integration with other activities that actively manage the freeway network. Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSM&O) is an integrated program, with strategies such as ramp metering, road weather management, and incident management (Figure 2), that requires continuous and active management by agencies to ultimately provide optimized system performance to existing freeway infrastructure. The end result is a program that will improve mobility, reliability, safety, and environmental impacts while preserving freeway capacity at a significantly lower cost than traditional capacity improvements. Ramp metering can also support regional congestion management processes.
Ramp metering was first deployed in the 1960s on the Eisenhower Expressway in Chicago. In the subsequent years, ramp meters were deployed in major metro areas such as Detroit, Los Angeles, and Minneapolis/St. Paul as experiments in increasing driver speeds during peak travel periods while reducing travel times and the frequency of freeway crashes. As ramp metering strategies and techniques advanced, more metro areas across the U.S., as well as Europe and Australia, began implementing ramp metering systems.
When agencies implement effective ramp metering programs using strategies suitable to the region, they often realize significant, long-term benefits. While the magnitude of the benefits may vary depending on the level of congestion and configuration, common benefits persist across many regions. The widespread benefits of ramp metering, relative to its costs, make it one of the most cost-effective freeway management strategies.
Ramp metering reduces mainline congestion and overall delay, while increasing mobility through the freeway network and traffic throughput. Travel times, even when considering time in queue on the ramp, are generally reduced when ramp metering is implemented. Travel time reliability has become an important measure of ramp metering effectiveness. Many regions have experienced increased travel time reliability (reduced variations in day-to-day travel times) due to ramp metering.
Ramp meters help break up platoons of vehicles that are entering the freeway and competing for the same limited gaps in traffic. By allowing for smooth merging maneuvers, collisions on the freeway can be avoided. Many regions have reported significant reductions in crash rates after starting ramp metering.
Ramp meters smooth the flow of traffic entering the freeway so vehicles can merge with mainline traffic with minimal disruption to traffic flow. Eliminating prolonged periods of stop-and-go conditions due to congestion can reduce vehicle emissions and fuel consumption on the freeway. It can be argued that emissions and fuel consumption increase at the ramp meter, which is why the environmental analysis must be sensitive to actual ramp operations and fuel estimation methodologies, especially with the prevalence of electric and hybrid vehicles on the roadway.
Without ramp meters in operation, multiple vehicles merge in tightly packed platoons, causing drivers on the mainline to slow down or even stop in order to allow vehicles to enter. The cascading slower speeds, both on the mainline and on the ramp, quickly lead to congestion and sometimes stop-and-go conditions. Ramp meters can break up the platoons by controlling the rate at which vehicles enter the mainline from the ramp, as shown on Figure 5. This allows vehicles to merge smoothly onto the mainline and reduces the need for vehicles on the mainline to reduce speed. In addition to breaking up platoons, ramp meters help manage entrance demand at a level that is near the capacity of the freeway, which prevents traffic flow breakdowns. Ramp meters are shown to reduce peak hour lane occupancies (i.e., freeway density) and quicken recovery from mainline breakdown back to or below the critical occupancy threshold, as shown on Figure 6. Typical results include reductions in travel time, reductions in crash rates, and increased traffic speed. 2ff7e9595c
