Abstract

In a noise measuring system comprising a microphone array and a directivity forming section for controlling the direction of directivity of the microphone array, the directivity forming section includes delay section and adding section, and the optimal value of a delay time of the delay section is set in such a manner that a noise isolation characteristic for causing any mobile noise generator not targeted for noise measurement to come off a directional plane or a directional line formed in the direction of directivity of the microphone array and a deterioration characteristic of the directivity of the microphone array balance with each other.
