Determination of Tonality<br />

The difference between the masking level and tone level is the tonality ∆L tn<br />

For the one critical band analyzed<br />

∆L tn = 15.30<br />

There will be 12 spectra to analyze the same peak and get a ∆L tn value for<br />

each spectrum<br />

For spectra where there are no tones use the following value<br />

The 12 resulting ∆L tn are energy averaged to one ∆L k<br />
