Abstract
To fulfil the airport safety requirements as stated in International Civil Aviation Organization document, ICAO 9137-3 AN part 3 – Airport Services Manual, Wildlife control and reduction, especially the bird stike control programme, the Sam Ratulangi International Airport is decided to apply the auditory method to control the birds in aerodrome area. Study on this need have been carried out using the sound energy approach, more specifically on inverse square law theory in free field. The theory said that by doubling the distance between the speaker and the sound level meter will decrease in sound pressure level of around 6 dB. From the field measurement results, the measured sound pressure level were 85 dB and 79 dB at the distance of 50 m and 100 m from the speaker. Both levels and distance were used in trials of repelling birds at 1600 Hz to 3150 Hz in frequencies. The use of long range acoustic device, LRAD speakers, that genereate 156 dB at a distance of 1 m in front of the speaker can effectively reach longer distances.
