Day–evening–night noise level

The day–evening–night noise level or Lden is a 2002 European standard to express noise level over an entire day. It imposes a penalty on sound levels during evening and night[1] and it is primarily used for noise assessments of airports, busy main roads, main railway lines and in cities over 100,000 residents.[2][3][4] The penalty for sound production during evenings and nights is due to higher nuisance perception during quieter hours and to prevent sleep deprivation for nearby residents.

Definition edit

Lden is calculated as:[5]

 

Where the long-term average noise levels are defined as:

Part of the day hours penalty (dB)
day 07:00 - 19:00 0
evening 19:00 - 23:00 5
night 23:00 - 07:00 10

The exact hours of the three periods may be chosen differently by individual EU member states.

The formula for Lden can be considered a weighted average of the yearly individual noise level during day, evening and night.
