The report, Volume 2 of a 6 Volume series, is the final report on the development and partial validation of a new highway traffic noise prediction model called PSUHTRAN (for the Penn State University Highway Transportation Noise Model). The new model accounts for the effects of coherence and wavefront curvature in noise reflection from the ground. It also incorporates a more complete barrier attenuation algorithm than do previous models developed for the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), and it provides for approximately defining the ground surface in terms of plane polygons.
