We named it EA-method, for short. So far, we have shown the robustness as well as the reproducibility of the results obtained by the method at various environments. The method consists of two kinds according to sensor types employed: i.e. two-microphone and PU-sensor. In this paper, the applicability of the EA-method is discussed onto three types of absorption: porous, panel, and resonator. At first, the outline of the EA-method is summarized and measurement mechanism is explained. Then, the robustness as well as the reproducibility of the method are discussed based on accumulated results of measurements conducted in various environments including reverberation rooms and in-situ conditions.", }
