From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The correct title of this article is dBrnC. The initial letter is shown capitalized due to technical restrictions.

dBrnC represents an audio level measurement, typically in a telephone circuit, relative to the level of circuit noise, with the measurement of this level frequency-weighted by a standard C-message weighting filter. The C-message weighting filter was cheifly used in North America. The Psophometric filter is used for this purpose on international circuits. See Psophometric Weighting to see a comparison of frequency response curves for the C-message weighting and Psophometric weighting filters.
