There are many results in which acoustical conditions of a classroom play an important role for studying effects and academic achievement of students. However, there are very few guidelines or design proposals which could make appropriate acoustic environment when classrooms are built or renovated. The present study suggests various design proposals satisfying acoustic standards of classrooms based on theoretical calculation and acoustic field experiments. At first, minimum area of sound absorption was calculated which is required to satisfy the acoustic standard for domestic middle and high schools. Also, room acoustic measurements were carried out in order to investigate the acoustic performance of an existing classroom by changing interior finishing materials on ceiling and rear walls. As a result, it was revealed that reverberation time standard below 0.8 s can be acquired even if there is no sound absorption on ceiling which is a general practice executed in Korea. Specially, it was found that if partial area of ceiling would be treated as reflective with the ratio of sound absorption and reflection as 2:1, almost similar acoustic parameters of $C_{50}$, $D_{50}$, RASTI (Rapid Speech Transmission Index) and higher sound levels could be acquired in comparison with the case of entire sound absorption on ceiling.

Recently, the development of digital transmission technology of audio signals and the introduction of audio network equipment using digital transmission technology have been made. As a result, audio network technology and equipment are actively applied to the design and construction of audio systems. The meeting room is a place where a large number of participants exchange opinions and communicate with each other. In addition to using an electric acoustic device such as a microphone and a speaker, it improves the intelligibility of the conference room through an example using an audio network.

당과 같은 실내 음향 문제는 강당의 사용자와 관리자의 주관적인 평가가 배제되기 힘든 것이므로 문제를 개선하기 위해 물리적 측정이나 실험, 해석 등을 통한 다각적인 정량적 분석 자료를 산출하는 과정이 선행되어야 한다 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 기존의 강당에 대한 고유 음향 특성-잔향시간, 명료도, 음압레벨-을 실험과 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 얻어 음향 분포를 파악하고, 현재 설치되어 있는 스피커의 지향성 및 위치 등에 따른 음향 특성을 알아보았다. 대표적인 음향평가 지수인 잔향 시간은 랜덤노이즈를 음원으로 사용하여 음향측정을 수행하였으며, 이 결과를 시뮬레이션과 비교함으로써 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션의 신뢰성 또한 검토하였다.
