Noise measurements were performed in 27 air-conditioned landscaped offices in the present investigation. From the measured equivalent sound pressure levels, percentile levels and noise level cumulative distributions, it is found that linear relationships exist between percentile levels and the equiv

β¦ Synopsis
In the present investigation, over 270 site measurements of noise levels are carried out in the Hong Kong residential areas. Results show that the noise climate is a good parameter for classifying the characteristics of the noise level time #uctuations. The relationships between percentile levels and the equivalent sound pressure levels are discussed and compared with results obtained from other cities. The log}tanh noise level cumulative distribution function proposed previously by the "rst author is found to be applicable in the outdoor situations provided that the noise environment is not dominated by limited strong noise events. This suggests the generality of this function for use in the environmental noise study.

## Abstract In this paper, we present the gateβresistance dependence on thermal noise of a fully depleted SOI MOS operating in an inversion regime with the gate structure's distributed nature. The various parameters used in this analysis are derived from the characteristics obtained by incorporatin
