• The effects of viscous drag and thermal conduction along the bore walls, lead to an attenuation in the propagating waves, determined by
() = 2 x 10-5 / a
Theoretical Wall Loss
• The round trip attenuation for a tube of L is given by,
2() = e-2L
valid for diameters seen in most musical instruments.

Impulse Response Using a Swept Sine
• The sine is swept over a frequency trajectory (t) effectively smearing the impulse over a longer period of time.
• Since higher frequencies go into the system at later times, they must be realigned to recover the impulse response.

Summary• We observed the behaviour of the
following waveguide filter elements, from measured impulse responses:– Open end reflection (cylinder and cone)– Propagation losses (cylinder and cone)– Junction reflection and transmission
(cylicone)
• We confirmed that the impulse response measurements matched the responses of the waveguide models.

Conclusions
• We observed and verified theoretical waveguide filter elements using our measurements.
• The measurement system yields very good data at relatively low cost.
• The validation of the measurement system implies it can be extended to any tube structure.
