IEC 60268-16:2011

Speech Transmission Index Measurement

This test method provides an objective measure of speech intelligibility in acoustic environments using the Speech Transmission Index (STI) method. STI quantifies how well speech is transmitted through an acoustic space, accounting for noise, reverberation, and frequency distortion. The measurement is critical for evaluating communication effectiveness in public address systems, conference rooms, classrooms, and other speech-critical environments. Venues with high standards for speech clarity use this method to verify system performance and acoustic suitability. ISO 17025 accreditation ensures reliable assessment of speech intelligibility compliance with design standards.

What it measures

  • Speech Transmission Index (STI) value (0-1 scale)
  • Modulation transfer function across frequency bands
  • Speech intelligibility rating and quality assessment
  • Impact of noise and reverberation on speech clarity
  • Communication effectiveness and auditory conditions
