The aim of the current project was to identify any trends in comparison to previous campaigns. Autonomous pass-by measurements were carried out at 30 locations throughout Germany in accordance with DIN EN ISO 11819-1 (SPB) with the aim of recording at least 1000 vehicles per location. As the road surface influences the pass-by noise, near-field measurements according to DIN EN ISO 11819-2 (CPX) were carried out to determine the homogeneity of the road surface at each measurement location. In parallel to the CPX measurements, texture measurements according to DIN EN ISO 13473 were carried out to quantify the relevant geometric parameters of the road surface. The presentation describes the methodology of these measurements and presents the final results including a comparison with data from the 2012 and 2002 measurement campaigns.", }
