Numerical analysis for the Bragg reflection due to sinusoidally varying seabeds tying on a sloping beach was performed by using a couple of ordinary differential equations derived from the Boussinesq equations. Incident waves were wane groups generated by two short waves with slightly different phases. Effects of the slope of a seabed to the reflection were investigated in detail. It is shown that the reflection of long waves enhanced by increasing the slope of a seabed. This phenomenon caused by increase of wave amplitude due to increase of nonlinearity and shoaling.

Spatial variation of diffracting wave amplitudes along a semi-infinite breakwater is investigated using the analytical solution of Penney and Price (1952) for wave diffraction. On the front side of the breakwater, the fluctuation of wave amplitudes due to diffracting waves would cause a wave force greater than that of superposed incident and reflected waves. The diffracting wave phase varies in circular shape from the breakwater tip of (x, y) = (0, 0) whereas the incident and reflected wave phases vary in planar shape. So, the total wave amplitude of the incident (or reflected) waves and the diffracting waves would fluctuate at a position away from the energy discontinuity line. The position (x, y) = (0, y) on the front and lee sides of the breakwater is at a distance y(π/2 - β) of the point on the energy discontinuity line along the diffracting wave crest line. The degree of reduction of the diffraction wave energy is proportional to the distance from the point on the energy discontinuity line along the diffracting wave crest line. Therefore, the diffracting wave amplitudes on the front and lee sides of the breakwater would be inversely proportional to the square root of y(π/2 - β).

Ultrasonic pulse echo method comes to be difficult to apply to the multi-layered structure with very thin layer, because the echoes from the top and the bottom of the layer are superimposed. We can easily meet this problem when the silicon chip layer in the semiconductor is inspected by a SAM equipment using fairly low frequency lower than 20MHz by which severe attenuation in the epoxy mold compound of packaging material can be overcome. Conventionally, deconvolution technique has been used for the decomposition of superimposed UT signals, however it has disabilities when the waveform of the transmitted signal is distorted according to the propagation. In this paper, the wavelet transform based deconvolution(WTBD) technique is proposed as a new signal processing method that can decompose the superimposed echo signals with superior performances compared to the conventional deconvolution technique. WTBD method uses the wavelet transform in the pre-stage of deconvolution to extract out the common waveform from the transmitted and received signal with distortion. Performances of the proposed method we shown by through computer simulations using model signal with noise and we demonstrated by through experiments for the fabricated semiconductor sample with partial delamination at the top of silicon chip layer.

Ground roll is a surface wave which is usually observed in the land seismic data. It is one of the typical coherent noise. During the reflection data processing, ground roll is removed because it is considered as noise. This removal process often causes the loss of reflection signals if the ground roll overlaps reflection signals. In this study, we look over Karhunen-Loeve Transform (KLT) and analyze its effects to suppress the ground roll appropriately while reducing the reflection loss. Numerical tests in homogeneous elastic media show that the ground roll has been properly rejected. However, the field data application reveals that there is no significant suppression of ground roll when compared to band-pass filtering. This can be considered that it is hard to calculate horizontally aligned gathers in the field data because the ground roll contains a wide range of frequency bands. On the contrary, the result of singular value decomposition (SVD) filtering shows that the ground roll has been significantly reduced. It is thought that the SVD filtering performs better in the ground roll suppression than KLT because it is easy to calculate the horizontally aligned gathers in the SVD filtering.

In order to analyze wave propagation, tidal current, and sediment transport in the vicinity of the Gaeya open channel, it was classified into before(CASE1W) and after(CASE2W) installation of various artificial structures, and the calculation results for CASE1W and CASE2W were compared. For wave propagation, the results of incident and reflected waves were derived using the SWAN numerical model, and the tidal current velocity results were derived using the FLOW2DH numerical model for tidal current. The results of the SWAN numerical model and the FLOW2DH numerical model became the input conditions for the SEDTRAN numerical model that predicts sediment transport, and the maximum bed shear stress and suspended sediment concentration distribution near the Gaeya open channel were calculated through the SEDTRAN numerical model. As a result of the calculation of the SWAN numerical model, the wave height of CASE2W was increased by 40~50 % compared to CASE1W because the incident wave was diffracted and superimposed and the reflected wave was generated by about 7 km long northen jetty. As a result of the calculation of the FLOW2DH numerical model, According to the northen breakwater, the northen jetty and Geumrando, CASE2W was calculated 10~30 % faster than CASE1W in the tidal current of the Gaeya open channel. As a result of the calculation of the SEDTRAN numerical model, the section where the maximum bed shear stress is 1.0 N/m² or more and the suspended concentration is 80mg/L or more was widely distributed in the Gaeya open channel from the marine environment by the complex wave field(incident wave, reflected wave and tidal wave) and the installation of various artificial structures. it is believed that a sedimentation phenomenon occurred in the Gaeya open channel.

A difficulty encountered in engineering seismic mapping is that reflection events from shallow discontinuities are commonly overlapped with coherent noise such as air wave, direct waves, head waves, and high-amplitude surface waves. Here, the radial trace transform, a simple geometric re-mapping of a trace gather (x-t domain) to another trace gather (v-t domain), is applied to investigate the rejection effect of coherent linear noises. Two different types of data sets were selected as a representative database: good-quality data for intermediate sounding (hundreds of meters) in a sedimentary basin and very noisy data for shallow (${\leq}50m$) mapping of the weathered zone and bedrock surface. Results obtained with cascaded application of the radial transform and low-cut filtering proved to be as good as, or better than, those produced using f-k filtering, and were especially effective for air wave and direct wave. This simple transform enables better understanding of the characteristics of various types of noise in the RT domain, and can be generally applied to overcoming diffractions and back-scatterings caused by joints, fractures, and faults commonly that are encountered in geotechnical problems.

In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed to estimate the damage size by combining the reflected area with the reflected position and extracting contours in proportion to the maximum value of pixels from the visible image. The cumulative summation feature vector algorithm is used to obtain the area of the reflected signal. To get the position of the reflected signal, the signal correlation algorithm is used to decompose the reflected signal from the damage. The proposed algorithm is tested and validated for composite panels. Repetitive experiments are performed and it is confirm that the proposed algorithm is reproducible. Further, it is verified that the damage size can be estimated appropriately by the proposed algorithm.

In land seismic exploration, irregular surface topography and weathering layer in near surface distorts the reflected signals of data. Therefore, typical land seismic data should be compensated for this distortion by static correction. To perform the static correction, near-surface velocity is required, which can be obtained by seismic refraction survey. However, land seismic data is often acquired in a limited form of geometry depending on the equipment availability, accessibility condition, and permission for the survey site. In this situation, refraction analysis should be performed using reflection data because it is impossible to acquire refraction-oriented data due to limited source and receiver geometry. In this study, we aimed to analyze the reliability of the results obtained by refraction traveltime tomography when using reflection data with a limited number of sources and receivers from irregular surface topography. By comparing the inversion result from irregular topography with that from flat surface, we found that the surface topography affects the reliability of the inversion results to some degree. We also found that the number of sources has little effect on the inversion results unless the number of sources are very small. On the other hand, we observed that velocity distortion occurred in the overlapped part of receiver arrays when using a limited number of receivers, and therefore suggested the size of the least overlapping ratio to avoid the velocity distortion. Finally, we performed numerical tests for the model which simulates the surface topography and acquisition geometry of the survey region and verified the reliability analysis of inversion results. We identified reliable areas and suspicious area of the inverted velocity model by applying the analysis results to field data.

The Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM) is a special case of multicarrier transmission, where a single data stream is divided into many subcarriers and transferred in a parallel way. It reduces the necessary bandwidth using the orthogonality between the subcarriers. Therefore it requires the transmission channel which has stable characteristic. When the delay spread of the channel exceed the guard interval, then the orthogonality of the subcarriers cannot maintain and as a result the system performance degrade. In this paper, the XCP-OFDM(OFDM using cross-handed Circular Polarization) system is newly proposed. This system divides the channel in order to eliminate the overlapping of subcarrier's spectrum by using cross-handed circular polarization. Therefore, the proposed XCP-OFDM system can improve the performance without increasing the guard interval. Both theoretical analysis and simulation results are described.
