hanggátlási

Hanggátlási is a Hungarian term that denotes the process or set of measures aimed at suppressing, blocking, or reducing sound transmission or presence in a given environment. The form hanggátlási is generally used as an attributive adjective or a noun referring to the methods, technologies, or regulations involved in achieving sound suppression.

In acoustics and architecture, hanggátlási refers to sound insulation and reverberation control within buildings and between spaces. Typical approaches include the use of dense or decoupled construction, sound-absorbing materials, resilient channels, and airtight constructions to limit sound transmission. Designers may rely on standardized metrics such as sound transmission class (STC) or impact isolation to quantify effectiveness. The goal is to create quieter interiors, meet building codes, and improve comfort and privacy.

In occupational safety and environmental noise management, hanggátlási measures aim to reduce workers’ exposure to harmful noise levels and minimize noise pollution in the surrounding environment. These measures can involve engineering controls (machine enclosures, vibration isolation), administrative controls (rotations, maintenance scheduling), and personal protective equipment, along with regulatory compliance and monitoring.

In digital signal processing and telecommunications, hanggátlási describes techniques that suppress unwanted noise in audio signals. Methods include spectral subtraction, adaptive filtering, Wiener filtering, and multi-microphone beamforming, all designed to preserve desired signals while reducing background noise.

Etymology and usage: hang means sound, gátlás means inhibition or suppression, and hanggátlási forms appear in technical and regulatory contexts to specify the act or regime of damping sound.
