• Resumen

  • A study of noise due to honking and its impact on L10 has been carried out at Kolkata metropolis. The relation between L10, honking, traffic and the percentage of heavy vehicle has been determined. L10, the noise level that exceeds 10% of the monitoring time, is a measure of the higher noise level. In this paper, regression equation between L10, honking, traffic and the percentage of heavy vehicle has been developed for the prediction of L10. The same equation can be used for reducing L10 by exercising appropriate control over the suitable predictor(s). The article also delineates as to what kind of control is called for reducing L10
