10 +====== **Description** ======
11 +)))|(% style="width:730px" %)The LDEN is an acoustic indicator for sound environment. LDEN is expressed in dB(A) because it is based on a combination of equivalent sound pressure levels Leq,T (energetic summation through logarithmic law), calculated with the A ponderation on 3 periods (day, evening, night), depending on the sound source emission (i.e. road traffic conditions). Thus LDEN is a daily equivalent sound pressure level (T=00h-24h), with a 0dB(A) penalty increase for the Day period (T=6h-18h), a 5dB(A) penalty increase for the Evening period (T=18h-22h) and a 10dB(A) penalty increase for the Night period (T=22h-6h)
