ambient noise level

In telecommunication, ambient noise level or room noise level is the level of acoustic noise existing at a given location, such as in a room, in a compartment, or at a place out of doors. Ambient noise level is measured with a sound level meter. It is usually measured in dB above a reference pressure level of 0.00002 Pa, i.e., 20 μPa (micropascals) in SI units. A pascal is a newton per square meter. the centimeter-gram-second system of units, the reference level for measuring ambient noise level is 0.0002 dyn/cm².
