Evaluation of vibration and sound quality according to battery voltage change while moving a power seat in an automobile forward or backward

The changes in vibration, sound, and sound quality with changes in the driving voltage of a power seat motor from 12.5 to 14.5 V were measured and analyzed, which was used in real vehicles. BSR (buzz, squeak, rattle), which occurs for the power seat mechanism during sliding operation, was also evaluated. In addition, the results were expressed in terms of sound quality metrics, which measure the RPM change and sound level versus voltage to analyze their statistical correlation. Furthermore, vibration measurement and analysis were conducted simultaneously to determine the noisiest conditions and the source of the noise. The changes in RPM and voltage of a motor, in addition to vibration and noise, were measured at the same time to determine how noise, RPM, and voltage are interrelated.
