File IBA Crosstalk weighting curve.svg 400px right Crosstalk measurement is made on audio systems to determine the amount of signal leaking across from one channel to another. Interchannel crosstalk applies between the two channels of a stereo system, and is usually not very important on modern systems, though it was hard to keep below the desired figure of 30dB or so on vinyl record ings and FM radio . Crosstalk between channels in mixing consoles, and between studio feeds is much more of a problem, as these are likely to be carrying very different programmes or material. The IBA drew up a weighting curve for use in crosstalk measurement that gives due emphasis to the subjective audibility of different frequencies, as shown here. This is still in use, despite the demise of the IBA, and in the absence of any international standards is worth adopting.

Measurement and Verification demonstrates how much energy the ECM has avoided using, rather than the total cost saved. The latter can be affected by many factors, such as energy prices. The Measurement and Verification process enables the energy savings delivered by the ECM to be isolated and fairly evaluated.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Grade measurement is the geodesy geodetic determination of the local radius of curvature of the figure of the Earth by determining the difference in astronomical latitude between two locations on the same meridian geography meridian , the metric distance between which is known. The first known grade measurement was performed by Eratosthenes 240 BC between Alexandria and Syene in what is now Egypt, determining the radius of the Earth with remarkable correctness. The Dutch geodesist Snellius 1620 repeated the experiment between Alkmaar and Bergen op Zoom using more modern geodetic instrumentation. Later grade measurements aimed at determining the flattening of the Earth ellipsoid by measuring at different geographic latitude s. The first of these was the one commissioned by the French Geodesic Mission French Academy of Sciences in 1735 1738, involving measurement expeditions to Lapland Pierre Louis Maupertuis Maupertuis et al. and Peru Pierre Bouguer et al. . Later, Friedrich Georg Wilhelm von Struve Struve measured a geodetic triangle chain between the Arctic Sea and the Black Sea , and Friedrich Bessel Bessel compiled several meridian arc s to compute the famous Bessel ellipsoid 1841 . Nowadays, the method is replaced by worldwide geodetic network s and by satellite geodesy .

unreferenced date September 2011 Noise measurement is carried out in various fields. In acoustics , it can be for the purpose of measuring environmental noise , or part of a test procedure using white noise , or some other specialised form of test signal . In electronics it relates to the sensitivity of communications systems, the purity of signals, or the quality of audio systems . The concept is to define the noise level below which signals cannot reliably be detected. It can be thought of as uncertainty of the information being carried over a communications channel . In audio systems and broadcasting specific methods are used to obtain subjectively valid results in order that different devices and signal paths may be compared regardless of the differing spectral distribution and temporal properties of the noise that they generate. In particular, the ITU R 468 noise weighting was devised specifically for this purpose, and is widely used for professional audio and broadcast measurements. Standards There are a number of standards for noise measurement, each with a different goal or focus, including Standard ITU R BS 468 widely used in Broadcasting and professional Audio. Standard IEC A weighting is widely used in Environmental Noise measurement.
