This paper presents an efficient design method of 2-D state-space digital filter based on an improved branch-and -bound algorithm. The resultant 2-D state-space digital filters whose coefficients are represented as the sum of two power-of-two terms, are attractive for high-speed operation and simple implementation. The feasibility of the proposed method is demonstrated by several experiments. The results show that the approximation error and group delay characteristic of the resultant filters are similar to those of the digital filters which designed in the continuous coefficient space.

Defects inspection of commodities are very important with those design and manufacturing process and essential to strengthen the competitiveness of those. If on-line automatic defects detection is performed without damaging to products, the production cost shall be curtailed through the reducing man-power, economical management of Q.C(Quality Control). In this paper, it is suggested three spatial filtering methods which can extract the necessary information in case of defects being on the surface of object like iron plate. In addition, the dependence of filtering characteristics on parameters such as the pitch and width of slits is analyzed and the surface defect detection system is constructed. Several experiments were carried out for determining the adequate spatial filtering method through comparing and analyzing effects of parameters like defect's size and shape, intensity of light, noise of coherent source and slit number.

여러 분야에서 공간적 물리량, 패턴 또는 분포 등의 공간정보를 공간적으로 처리하는 방법이 연구 개발되어 왔다. 공간필터링 또는 공간필터법이라고 불리기도 하는 이 기법은 현재 직선 회전 군속도, 표면거칠기, 토석류속도, 형상, 결함 등 여러 계측분야에서 활용되고 있다. 이들 분야에 활용되는 공간필터는 복수개의 슬리트로 구성되며, 최상의 계측목적을 달성하기 위해서는 최적하중함수를 설계하여 각각의 슬리트에 맞는 하중값을 적용하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 계측계의 간략화를 구현하기 위한 기초연구로서 기본이 되는 단슬리트의 구조 및 회전에 따른 필터링특성을 분석하였다.

A novel subspace speech enhancement using subband whitening filter is proposed. Previous subspace speech enhancement method either assumes additive white noise or uses whitening filter as a pre-processing for colored noise. The proposed method tries to minimize the signal distortion while reducing residual noise by processing the signal using subband whitening filter. By incorporating the notion of subband whitening filter, spectral resolution in Karhunen-Loeve(KL) domain is improved with the negligible additional computational load. The proposed method outperforms both the subspace method suggested by Ephraim and the spectral subtraction suggested by Boll in terms of segmental signal-to-noise ratio (SNRseg) and perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ).

In this paper, a study of damage detection for 2-Dimensional Truss Structures using the parametric projection filter theorr is presented. Many researchers are interested in inverse problem and one of solution procedures for inverse problems that are very effective is the approach using the filtering algorithm in conjunction with numerical solution methods. In filtering algorithm, the Kalman filtering algorithm is well known and have been applied to many kind of inverse problems. In this paper, the Parametric projection filtering in conjunction with structural analysis is applied to the identification of damages in 2-D truss structures. The natural frequency and modes of damaged truss model are adopted as the measurement data. The effectiveness of proposed method is verified through the numerical examples.

자동차 오디오는 차량의 상품성에 큰 영향을 미치고 있다. 고급 차량일수륵 또한 젊은 층일수록 차량 구매시 선택의 기준이 되기도 한다 그러나 자동차 오디오는 크게 두가지 면에서 가정용 오디오와 차이가 있다. 첫번째는 청취공간이 매우 헙소하다는 것이고 둘째로는 주행시 차량소음이 차 실내로 유입되어 오디오 음질에 영향을 미친다. 차 실내는 즘은 공간 음향폭성으로 인한 음향 dip 현상이 발생하며 이는 오디오 음질의 왜곡을 가져오므로 이를 개선하기 위해서는 라우드스피커 최적배치 뿐 아니라 주행소음에 대한 시험 및 분석을 하여 오디오 음질에 영향을 주는 주파수 밴드를 파악하여야 한다 본 논문에서는 오디오 음에 차량소음이 섞인 경우에 대하여 차량의 라우드스피커 위치는 변경하지 않고 라우드스피커의 주파수 밴드별 출력을 디지털필터를 이용하여 수정하는 방법으로 음질 개선을 제안하였다. 디지털 필터의 보정치는 차량 주행소음 특성과 차 실내 음향특성을 고려하였다. 차량소음을 섞은 주파수 옥타브 밴드 분석법을 이용한 객관적인 분석과 감성적 분석법인 NCB곡선으로 차량소음을 분식하여 디지털 필터 보정치를 구하는데 사용하였다. 제안한 9가지 디지털 필터를 이용하여 차량소음과 음악을 합성하였고 이중에서 좋은 음질에 대한 판정을 하기 위해 Scheffe가 제안한 7점 주관 평가법을 사용하여 64명이 내린 주관평가를 수행하였다.

Image magnification is the estimation of a few pixel in images with high quality from a pixel of an image with low resolution and there have been studied many techniques to make images with high quality. In this paper, we propose an image interpolation method using median filter and spatial information. The proposed method makes an interpolating pixel using an average value of a median filtered value and an average value of two pixels correlated with an interpolating pixel tightly. Also we make the magnified image with improved quality to add the directional information of surrounding pixels and the characteristic of ones using average value and max value of spatial variation. We evaluate the performance using PSNR in the quality of enlarged image comparing the proposed method with existing methods. The results show the proposed method improves PSNR than the existing methods and make images preserving the characteristic of original imges.

Restored image is always lower quality than original one due to distortion and noise. The purpose of image restoration is to improve the image quality by fixing the noise or distortion information. One category of spatial filters for image restoration is linear filter. This filter algorithm is easily implemented and can be suppressed the Gaussian noise effectively, but not so good performance for spot or impulse noise. In this paper, we propose the nonlinear spatial filter algorithm for image restoration called the optimal adaptive multistage filter(OAMF). The OAMF is used to reduce the filtering time, increases the noise suppression ratio and preserves the edge information. The OAMF optimizes the adaptive multistage filter(AMF) by using weight learning algorithm of back-propagation learning algorithm. Simulation results of this filter algorithm are presented and discussed.

In marine controlled-source electromagnetic (CSEM) modeling, it may be difficult to evaluate primary fields accurately using conventional linear filters because they decay very rapidly with distance. However, since there exists a closed-form solution to the Hankel transform in TM mode for a homogeneous half space, we can assess the accuracy of linear filters for evaluating the Hankel transform. As a result, only nine out of 36 source-receiver pairs show that EM fields decrease linearly in semi-log scale with an increase of source-receiver distance, while EM fields are either 0 or not reduced significantly due to an effect of the air layer. There also exist closed-form solutions for the nine pairs, and the others can be evaluated accurately with a relatively short filter. This paper proposes a method which uses closed-form solutions for TM-mode Hankel transforms and a filter with 61 coefficients for TE-mode ones.

In this paper, for compensating dynamic voltage sag and harmonic current, 3-phase hybrid series active power filter based on the space vector detection is proposed. The Space vector algorithm for detecting the voltage sag and the harmonic current in compared with conventional theory is a simple method for calculating the compensating reference without any coordinated transformation. The effectiveness of the proposed system is verified by the PSIM simulation in the steady state and the transient state, which the proposed system is able to simultaneously compensate harmonics and source voltage unbalance / sag.
