- the acoustic attenuation spectra of all investigated ion conducting glasses prepared in the system CuI-CuBr-Cu2O-P2O5 consist of at least three thermally activated relaxation processes for temperatures over 220 K,
- the modified DPL model provides a better fit than the KWW model or the Debye model,
- the superposition of three loss peaks with different activation energies can better fit the investigated spectrum of the glasses,
- further analyses of acoustic spectra obtained by investigation of glass samples with different compositions in wider temperature and frequency range should be done for better understanding of ion transport mechanisms for various types of the investigated ion conducting glasses.
