The Reliability and Validity of In-Ear Microphone Measurements of Ear Protective Devices [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1973 A miniature microphone was placed in a subject's ear after the method described by Brammer and Piercy [J. Acoust. Soc. Amer. 52, 1972 180], and its output fed to a spectrum analyzer set to a bandwidth of 100 Hz. The subjects were seated in a semireverberant room into which a white noise field at 95 dB SPL was introduced.

Method for protected noise exposure level assessment under an in-ear hearing protection device: a pilot study [PDF]
International Journal of Audiology, 2020 To properly measure the effective noise exposure level of workers with hearing protection devices (HPD), the use of in-ear noise dosimeters (IEND) is increasing. Commercial IENDs typically feature one in-ear microphone that captures all noises inside the ear and do not discriminate the residual noise in the earcanal from wearer-induced disturbances ...
