A coupler-based calibration method for ear-probe microphones.
Journal of the Acoustical Society of America 2018 October
The calibration of ear-probe microphones can increase the precision of calibrating stimulus levels in situ and of measuring acoustic responses from the ear. This paper proposes a methodology to measure the sensitivity of an ear-probe microphone, requiring only an acoustic coupler and a calibrated reference microphone. The input impedance of the coupler is measured, enabled by a preliminary acoustic Thévenin calibration of the ear probe, and the plane-wave transfer impedance of the coupler is calculated analytically. Using these two quantities, the pressure transfer function between the reference microphone and the ear-probe microphone is estimated. This enables estimating the sensitivity of the ear-probe microphone. The proposed and an existing method were compared, resulting in substantially similar ear-probe microphone sensitivities. The proposed method is practically feasible in producing reliable measurements of sound pressure in the ear canal and calibrating stimulus levels in a clinical setting.
