Generation

The decibel scale is a logarithmic unit used to measure sound intensity, which allows it to compress the vast range of human hearing (from the faintest audible sound to pain threshold) into a manageable 0-140 dB scale. This logarithmic nature means each 10 dB increase represents a tenfold increase in sound intensity, making it easier to compare sounds of vastly different powers and better matching how humans perceive relative changes in loudness.
