When a vibration data for a rotating machine such as a pump or a compressor is concerned, the frequency fluctuation of the energy contents at an instant time may provide useful information on understanding the vibration characteristics of the rotating machinery, rather than the averaged energy distribution along the frequency axis. Especially, when a periodic signal has different spectral contents, the approach to use the averaged frequency distribution, called the normal frequency analysis, may not be appropriate to extract vibration source characteristics of the structure. This paper introduces a way to analyze the signal based on an instant time. In order to evaluate the performance of the various approach, the investigatation compares three different algorithms which are frequently implemented in the instantaneous frequency analysis. Also for the noise effect embodied in the true signal, various cases for different SN ratio have been examined. The result shows that the noise level is crucial to evalute the instantaneous frequency analysis. In order to implement the instantaneous frequency analysis, the extraction of the relevant information from the measured signal should have the high S/N ratio, i, e., 40 dB or above.

A simple robust fundamental frequency estimator on the time-frequency domain is proposed. Combined with the appropriately designed low-pass filter, the instantaneous frequency estimator based on the Teager-Kaiser energy function can detect the fundamental frequency of speech signal. The Teager-Kaiser function can be obtained through real computation and show the change of frequency as time goes. And when a speech block with N samples is processed with a lowpass fille. with length of L, it requires $O(N{\cdot}(L+5))operations,$ compared to $O(N{\cdot}2log_2N+L))operations$ in the recently introduced wavelet and conventional instantaneous frequency method. The computer simulation confirms the usefulness of the proposed fundamental frequency estimation method.

The bright spot is an indicator for natural gas on seismic stack sections, but it is also shown on layers where the acoustic impedance contrast is large. In order to distinguish sharply between gas and impedance contrast we need additional detailed data processing such as velocity analysis, AVO analysis and seismic complex analysis including measures of seismic amplitude, frequency, and phase. In this study, we performed detailed velocity analysis, complex analysis and DHI (Direct Hydrocarbon Indicator) analysis which is the result of amplitude variation according to the incident angles. The seismic complex analysis gives us the geological information which depends on geophysical properties at the interest layer. For the complex analysis, we computed several seismic attributes such as the instantaneous amplitude, the first and the second derivatives of the instantaneous amplitude, the instantaneous phase, the instantaneous frequency and weighted average instantaneous frequency. Then we applied these analysis techniques to a seismic data of Korea offshore which had been logged. From the result of this data analysis, it could be said that high possibility area for gas layer detection has amplitude anomalies in the instantaneous amplitude, the instantaneous frequency and the DHI section resulting from the AVO analysis. If there are not any other anomalies in detailed data processing, it will have low possibility for gas layer detection.

본 논문에서는 단일주파수망에서 다수의 송신기로부터 전송되는 방송신호 간의 주파수를 일치시키기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 다수의 송신기로 동일한 송신채널을 통해 콘텐츠를 전송하는 경우 신호가 중첩되는 지역에서 주파수를 정확히 일치시키지 않으면 도플러효과가 야기되어 수신성능이 현저히 저하된다. 일반적으로 GPS 기준신호를 송신시스템의 참조주파수로 사용함으로써 방송신호 간의 주파수를 일치시킨다. 이 경우 GPS 기준신호로부터 복원된 참조주파수를 주파수 상하향 변환에 사용하면 위상지터가 증폭되어 방송신호 간의 순간적인 주파수 차이가 크게 발생할 수 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 GPS 참조주파수보다 위상지터가 작은 송신기 자체의 국부발진기 주파수를 주파수 상하향 변환에 사용하는 한편 국부발진기 자체의 주파수 오차를 상쇄함으로써 방송신호 간의 주파수를 일치시킨다.

This paper investigates the performance analysis of the packet DS/SS receiver with a PJED(phase-jump error detector) using the block signal processing(BSP) methods. The conventional packet DS/SS block receiver has a high probability of mistaking the phase-jump detection, which causes the frequency estimation error. The conventional receiver uses a Matched-Pulse Timing Extractor which has a complicated structure. The proposed packet DS/SS block receiver with the PJED which uses libearity of the phase has little probability of mistaking the phase-jump detection. The proposed Matched Pulse Timing Extractor gas the more simple structure but obtains the same performance on the exact matched-pluse timing as the conventional one does. The simulation results show that the proposed receiver gives about 2dB improvement in the BER compared with the conventional receiver.

A recently developed filbert-Huang transform (HHT) technique is applied to detect damage locations of bridge structures. The HHT may be used to identify the locations of damages which exhibit nonlinear and nonstationary behavior, since the HHT can show the instantaneous frequency characteristics of the signal. A series of numerical simulations were conducted for bridge pier systems with damages under a controlled load with sweeping frequency. The results of the numerical simulation study indicate that the HHT method can reasonably identify damage locations using a limited number of acceleration sensors under severe measurement noise condition.

The fundamental frequency of the voiced speech is estimated using the instantaneous frequency based on the symmetric higher order differential energy operator. The instantaneous frequency based on the symmetric higher order energy operator shows better frequency estimation result since it is aligned to the time instance of the signal. The speech is pre-processed by a lowpass filter to remove higher frequency components. Then, it is processed by the instantaneous frequency to obtain the fundamental frequency estimates. The symmetric higher order energy operator has been used as an indicator to determine the voiced/unvoiced speech. The fundamental frequency estimates are further processed by a moving average filter to obtain the monotonically changed estimates. The obtained fundamental frequency estimates have been compared with the spectrogram of the speech to confirm its accuracy.

We simulated Frequency-shifted feedback laser using AOM inside the cavity. We analyze instantaneous oscillation frequency at peak spectral intensity and Comb bandwidth of output spectrum from Wigner-Ville distribution of intracavity electric field. The Comb bandwidth is defined as the product of the saturation-broadened bandwidth and the total resonant modes contributing to FSF operation.

적절한 촉각자극과 결합된 효과음은 실감성을 향상시킨다고 알려져 있다. 예를 들어, 영화나 게임의 총소리 효과음에 진동자극이 결합되면 훨씬 몰입감이 증진된다. 영화의 경우, 미디어 파일 내에 진동효과 관련한 정보를 부가하는 연구가 진행되기도 하였으나 대중화되지는 못했다. 게임의 경우, 진동을 유발시키도록 프로그래밍하는 방식을 사용하기도 한다. 하지만 진동을 고려하여 개발하는 게임은 전체 10% 미만일 정도로 일반화되어 있지 않다. 따라서 효과음향을 실시간으로 감지하여 진동을 발생시키는 시스템이 바람직하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 시스템에서 특정 효과음을 실시간으로 감지하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이 알고리즘에서는 감지하고자 하는 효과음의 주파수 분포를 미리 분석해서 저장해 놓는다. 입력되는 효과음에 대해 실시간으로 주파수를 분석하여 저장된 값과의 차이를 비교하여 특정 효과음을 감지하게 된다. 실시간 주파수 분포에는 sliding fast Fourier transform (SFFT)를 사용한다. 이는 특정 효과음의 시작순간을 명확히 알 수 없기 때문이다. 제안 알고리즘을 First Person Shooting (FPS) 게임에 적용하여 성능분석을 하였다. 소음이 없을 경우, 감지율은 $80{\sim}90%$였으나, 소음 정도가 커질수록 감지율이 선형적으로 반비례하였다. 또한 감지에 걸리는 시간은 효과음 발생순간부터 0.45초 이내였다.

An instantaneous amplitude (IA) estimator using the symmetric higher order differential energy operator is proposed. The amplitude estimator and the instantaneous frequency (IF) estimator based on the symmetric higher order differential energy operator coincide with the analyzed signal in time, and they show better estimation results than the IA and IF based on the higher order differential energy operator. Various IF and IA estimators are applied to AM-FM signals for the performance comparison. Among the IF and IA estimators, the IF and IA estimators based on the symmetric higher order energy operator show the best estimation accuracy. Then, the IA and IF estimators are applied to the distorted power line signal to show their usefulness as power disturbance detectors.
