The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there were differences in sound quality among telecommunication service providers(SPs). To avoid the influence of brand of SPs and mobile phone manufacturer, a series of structured experiments was planed. Possible source of sound difference were tested such as specific genres of music, contents providers, mp3 players for PC, and mobile phone manufacturers. The results show there are differences of sound quality among telecommunication service providers(SPs). But the difference comes from contents, mobile phone, and MP3 player for PC. The same model of mobile phone from the manufacturer sounded differently depending on telecommunication service providers(SPs). The genre of music did not show consistent difference in sound quality.

Owing to the latest development of component and media processing technologies, UHDTV as a successor of the HDTV is expected that this will be coming soon realization. Accordingly, an audio technology that provides a 5.1-channel surround sound in home should be contemplating on what services should be provided with the advent of UHDTV era. In fact, however, the market of 5.1-channel audio is struggling, due to the difficulty of installation and maintenance of the multi speakers in a home. Meanwhile, the movie sound market for a long time been used in 5.1 and 7.1-channel sound formats, have changed as Dolby ATMOS, IOSONO, AURO3D etc. are launched one after another with the introduction of hybrid audio technologies that include the ceiling and object-based sounds. This very object-based audio technology is assured to be introduced in the home theater and broadcast audio market, and this change in audio technology is expected to be a breath of pioneering technological advances and market growth from the channel-based audio market that lacks flexibility. In this paper, we will investigate a suitable realistic audio solution for UHDTV, and introduce hybrid audio technologies, which is expected to be an audio technology for UHDTV, and we will describe the hybrid audio content format and reproduction methods in a home and consider the future prospects of realistic audio.

Spectral modeling synthesis (SMS) has been used as a powerful tool for musical sound modeling. This technique considers a sound as a combination of a deterministic plus a stochastic component. The deterministic component is represented by the series of sinusoids that are described by amplitude, frequency, and phase functions and the stochastic component is represented by a series of magnitude spectrum envelopes that functions as a time varying filter excited by white noise. These representations make it possible for a synthesized sound to attain all the perceptual characteristics of the original sound. However, sometimes considerable phase variations occur in the deterministic component by using the conventional SMS for the complex sound such as whale sounds when the partial frequencies in successive frames differ. This is because it utilizes the calculated phase to synthesize deterministic component of the sound. As a result, it does not provide a good spectrum matching between original and synthesized spectrum in higher frequency region. To overcome this problem, we propose a modified SMS that provides good spectrum matching of original and synthesized sound by calculating complex residual spectrum in frequency domain and utilizing original phase information to synthesize the deterministic component of the sound. Analysis and simulation results for synthesizing whale sounds suggest that the proposed method is comparable to the conventional SMS in both time and frequency domain. However, the proposed method outperforms the SMS in better spectrum matching.

This study presents an analysis of infrasonic signals from two accidental explosions in Gwangyang city, Jeonnam Province, Korea, on December 24, 2019, recorded at 12 infrasound stations located 151-435 km away. Infrasound propagation refracted at an altitude of ~40 km owing to higher stratospheric wind in the NNW direction, resulting in favorable detection at stations in that direction. However, tropospheric phases were observed at stations located in the NE and E directions from the explosion site because of the strong west wind jet formed at ~10 km. The transmission losses on the propagation path were calculated using the effective sound velocity structure and parabolic equation modeling. Based on the losses, the observed signal amplitudes were corrected, and overpressures were estimated at the reference distance. From the overpressures, the source energy was evaluated through the overpressure-explosive charge relationship. The two explosions were found to have energies equivalent to 14 and 65 kg TNT, respectively. At the first explosion, a flying fragment forced by an explosive shock wave was observed in the air. The energy causing the flying fragment was estimated to be equivalent to 49 kg or less of TNT, obtained from the relationship between the fragment motion and overpressure. Our infrasound propagation modeling is available to constrain the source energy for remote explosions. To enhance the confidence in energy estimations, further studies are required to reflect the uncertainty of the atmospheric structure models on the estimations and to verify the relationships by various ground truth explosions.

This study is subjected to two linked research. First is the creation process of dance work applying noise and non-musical sounds in our daily life based on understanding the classification, perception, and factor of the sound, through Murray Schafer's concept of 'soundscape'. Second is to find the value of new type of choreography and musical effect of creation process of the dance work . According to methodological research of practice-based research, three stages which is practice, theory and evaluation were accumulated as somatic data, And the analysis was provided a basis by presenting in a figuration, form of the movement and method of specialization with reference to the paper 『space design and forming practice』(2003). As a result, the creation process was able to discover the musical effect of the sound in daily life and new method of choreography, and also find the possibilities that sound could convey the theme of the dance work, the meaning of the movement and the overall atmosphere of the work to audience. In addition, It is expected that will have been made another new creation environment by potential that music has based on concept 'soundscape'.
