Simplified Performance Testing Using Anechoic Box + Sound Level Meter
Introduction: Ensuring Output and Input Quality in Voice Devices
Wireless microphones, Bluetooth speakers, intercom modules—these voice-related products all require acoustic performance verification at shipment.
However, their wireless nature introduces unique challenges that make traditional wired acoustic testing impractical.
Common Issues in Wireless Audio Product Testing
- 1. Noise intrusion and room reflections cause false readings
- 2. Microphone/speaker position shifts lead to unstable results
- 3. Signal delay or disconnection disrupts test repeatability
To overcome these, Moritani offers an integrated system using AEB (Anechoic Box) + HBK instruments + communication control modules for fully automated acoustic testing.
System Configuration: AEB × HBK × Communication Controller
| Component | Function |
|---|---|
| Acoustic Environment | AEB (Anechoic Box): Small free-field enclosure with high sound isolation |
| Source | HBK calibrated speaker: Sends test signals to DUT microphones |
| Microphone | HBK Free-Field Mic: Captures DUT speaker output |
| Control Interface | Bluetooth command triggers, signal routing, loopback checks |
All data is analyzed in real-time using PULSE software, enabling live FFT monitoring and pass/fail judgment logic.
Use Cases
| Bluetooth microphone | TX/RX acoustic validation |
|---|---|
| Wireless earbuds | Left/right channel balance & internal noise analysis |
| Headsets | Full duplex call quality testing (distortion, delay, noise) |
| Smart intercom modules | Voice command recognition and response loop testing |
Why AEB Is the Right Choice
- Isolated environment ensures only transmitted audio is measured
- Free-field design absorbs minor alignment variation
- HBK integration allows automated, logged OK/NG judgments
Combined with a proper trigger and Bluetooth controller, wireless testing becomes as stable as wired inspection.
Customization and Consultation
- Tailored AEB designs for wireless modules
- HBK speaker/mic setup optimization based on product specs
- Trigger control and loopback integration support
- Mass production line and development lab deployment
