Hello Guys,
Sorry but I need some help....
I have several of these ultrasonic sensors:
http://www.prowave.com.tw/english/products/ut/open-type/400s160.htm
As you can see the said sensor has the below characteristic for the SPL:
"Transmitting Sound Pressure Level (at 40.0KHz; 0dB re 0.0002µbar per 10Vrms at 30cm) 120dB min. "
So by connecting 10Vrms sine wave across the sensor pins we'll get 120dB of sound pressure level at 30cm.
Now the questions I am dealing with are:
1: how can I find the SPL of the sensors at say 1m of distance or more?
2: how much of SPL I'll get if I increase the voltage to 20Vrms?
3: How much of SPL I'll get if I put 2 of these sensors in parallel and side by side while feeding them by 10Vrms at 30cm and at 1m?
The SPL formula is:
SPL= 20log (P2/P1)
where P is the sound pressure.
Thanks a bunch for any help
