+\section noise_page_sec_1 What does it do?
+It generates audio noise. Currently it only generates reasonable quality
+AWGN. It is designed to be of sufficiently low complexity to generate large
+volumes of reasonable quality noise, in real time.
+
+Hoth noise is used to model indoor ambient noise when evaluating communications
+systems such as telephones. It is named after D.F. Hoth, who made the first 
+systematic study of this. The official definition of Hoth noise is IEEE
+standard 269-2001 (revised from 269-1992), "Draft Standard Methods for Measuring
+Transmission Performance of Analog and Digital Telephone Sets, Handsets and Headsets."
+
+The table below gives the spectral density of Hoth noise, adjusted in level to produce
+a reading of 50 dBA.

+The tolerance for each 1/3rd octave band is กำ3dB.
+
+\section awgn_page_sec_2 How does it work?
+The central limit theorem says if you add a few random numbers together,
+the result starts to look Gaussian. In this case we sum 8 random numbers.
+The result is fast, and perfectly good as a noise source for many purposes.
+It should not be trusted as a high quality AWGN generator, for elaborate
+modelling purposes.
