The radiation impedance of the external ear of cat: measurements and applications.

Abstract

The configuration of external ears varies dramatically among mammalian species. In order to relate these structural differences to acoustic performance, it is useful to determine the "output" (radiation) impedance of the external ear. Measurements were made of the radiation impedance ZE of the cat external ear looking out from the location of the tympanic membrane. Freshly excised external ears were coupled to a calibrated sound source at the …
