SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the interpretation of complex acoustic pressure as measured by an impedance tube. The complex pressure at a given point is represented as the combination of magnitude (in dB) and phase (in radians), expressed mathematically as [Magnitude] + i[Phase Value]. No unit conversion is necessary for this representation, as the magnitude and phase are already in compatible formats for complex number analysis.
