Soundscape monitoring of modified psychoacoustic annoyance with Next-Generation EDGE computing and IoT

Published: 09 August 2022 Publication History

Abstract

The environmental psycho-acoustic annoyance is an important metric in the Smart City with Next Generation technologies. The use of such technologies can help to rapidly deploy large quantity of elements, which can dynamically be used for different applications. Also, the psycho-acoustic annoyance is usually based on the Zwicker’s model, but this model does not consider tonality of sounds to weight the subjective nuisance produced. In this work, we show a on-going work for the implementation of the nodes and EDGE/Fog to determine a modified version of the Zwicker’s model, to consider sound tonality (based on Aures’ method). This implementation has been designed to consider two options for offloading, one with sampling and computation on the EDGE and another with sampling in 5G-nodes and computation on the EDGE.
