Acoustic measurements such as scale modeling measurements require a particular type of miniature omnidirectional sound source. The most important aspects of those devices are small sizes (usually below 100 mm in diameter) and different frequency ranges compared to traditional, omnidirectional sound sources used in room acoustics. The required frequency range differs regarding the used scale factor in different models, which leads to the troubles in frequent source changes and the need for a unique source design for every model. The project will present the recent achievement in miniature omnidirectional sound sources development. The optimal sound sources for the given measurement functions were developed based on the previous numerical simulations and experiments such as FEM sound directivity simulations or transducers' parameters tolerance testing. The sound sources presented are used for applications such as acoustic sound insulation scale measurements (frequency range 800 ÷ 63 000 Hz), scaled reverberation chamber measurements (300 ÷ 80 000 Hz), or acoustic reduction models measurements (400 ÷ 70 000 Hz). The paper will cover a detailed technical explanation of the laboratory environment's source construction aspects and validation measurements.
