English term or phrase: Coverage envelope
"Coverage Envelope:
The absolute value of the difference between the highest and lowest measurement readings in a given octave band."

Any ideas? It's a standard on "Audio Coverage Uniformity in Listener Areas"

Thanks!!!

Explanation:
As mentioned in the discussion box, “coverage envelope” is not a good term to denote the performance plot derived from the measurement results. I suggest the Spanish translation should match the technical concept, not emulate the poor English…

Basically, the measurements serve to determine (classify) the uniformity of performance of the system within the listening area. This is done by first creating a set of contours of the "absolute values" mentioned in the ST. The “coverage envelope” then corresponds (somewhat arbitrarily) to the curve/contour that encloses the largest space.

By analogy with the definition of coverage in broadcast transmitter systems (with which I am faaaaaar more familiar), where closed curves (contours, like on a map) through points having the same carrier-to-noise ratio are used to define "service (or coverage) areas" , I suggest a fair translation would be: zona de uniformidad de cobertura. But I have not been able to find any confirmation in relevant and reliable sources in Spanish, for the audio context of the present ST.
