Abstract

Sound reflecting panels are commonly used in concert and conference halls in order to transmit reflected sound to the audience and improve hearing conditions among musicians. The main problem is to design these elements properly. In this paper, the frequency limits of a useful sound transmission range and the efficiency of reflecting structures are theoretically estimated and experimentally verified.
