Some physiological features of human respiratory tract important for establishing the adequate knowledge about the sources of the respiratory sounds are discussed. The understanding of peculiarities of such sound generation is necessary for creation of efficient computer systems for breath noise recording and processing intended for improvement of the respiratory diseases diagnostics. An essential multi parametric dependence of the respiratory sounds predetermines the necessity to document all these parameters in the process of measurements. One of the common parameters usually recorded in the process of measurement is the airflow rate measured with a pneumotachograph. On the basis of measuring the spread for the true glottis dimensions and estimation of the corresponding level of the respiration noise power spectrum we have shown that maintenance of predetermined airflow rate in different patients does not guarantee the same power levels of the respiratory sounds generated by airflow in the trachea.
