Consideration of the possibility of reducing sonic boom noise to a level acceptable in populated areas. A detailed study is made of the possibility of predicting sonic boom generation, taking into account the effect of atmospheric conditions, air turbulence, and the effect of the shape and condition of the ground where people are located. The relation between the shape of the sonic boom signature on the ground and the aircraft shape is shown to be an important factor governing the use of supersonic aircraft over populated areas.
