칼라 역 해프토닝(Color inverse halftoning)은 해프토닝 칼라 영상을 시각적으로 보다 자연스러운 연속계조 칼라영상으로 변환해 주는 방법이다. 본 논문에서는, 분리된 각 칼라 채널 영상에서 나타나는 해프톤 셀 패턴을 효과적으로 제거할 수 있는 새로운 평활화 마스크를 제안하고, 이를 칼라역 해프토닝에 활용하였다. 제안한 평활화 마스크는 기존의 평활화 마스크가 잘 제거하지 못했던 해프톤, 셀 패턴을 시각적으로 보다 자연스럽게 평활해 줄 수 있으며, 마스크의 특성을 평활화하고자 하는 채널 영상에 적합하게 조정할 수 있도록 설계하였다. 실험을 통해, 평활화된 채널 영상과 그 스펙트럼을 비교 분석함으로써 제안한 방법의 유용성을 확인하였다. 이 방법은 전자 출판, 칼라 팩스, 해프톤 영상의 압축 등의 분야에 활용될 수 있다.

This paper analyzes the spectral power properties of various time hopping UWB signals and shows that the power spectral densities of the various signals could have to be determined by the PSD of the pulse used in the signal. The pulse design method by which the FCC emission mask can be utilized fully is proposed. The method combines the arbitrary derivative Gaussian pulse linearly. The coefficients of the linear combination are calculated by the LSE(Least Square Error) method. Various parameters such as the number of coefficients and the types of the basic pulses are considered when calculating the PSD and pulse shapes of the new pulses.

반사 방지막은 LEDs, 태양전지, 센서 등의 광전소자의 효율을 향상시키는데 사용되고 있다. 일반적으로 사용되는 단층 또는 다층 박막의 반사방지막은 thermal expansion mismatch, adhesion, stability 등의 문제점을 가지고 있다. 따라서, 단층 또는 다층 박막의 반사방지막 대신에 파장이하의 주기를 갖는 구조(subwavelength structure, SWS)의 반사방지막 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 입사되는 태양 스펙트럼의 파장보다 작은 주기를 갖는 SWS 구조는 Fresnel 반사율을 감소시켜 빛의 손실을 줄일 수 있다. 이러한 SWS 반사 방지막을 제작하기 위해서는 에칭 마스크가 필요하다. 에칭 마스크 제작을 위해서 사용되는 장비로는 홀로그램, 전자빔, 나노임프린트와 같은 리소그라피 방법이 있으나, 이들은 제작 비용이 고가이며 복잡한 기술을 필요로 한다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 리소그라피 방법보다 간단하고 저렴한 self-assembled Au 나노 입자 에칭 마스크를 이용한 실리콘 SWS 반사 방지막을 제작하여 구조적 및 광학적 특성을 연구하였다. Au박막은 열증발증착(thermal evaporator)법에 의해 실리콘 기판 위에 증착되었고, 급속 열처리(rapid thermal annealing, RTA)를 통해 Au 나노입자 에칭 마스크를 형성시켰다. 실리콘 SWS 반사방지막은 식각 가스 $SiCl_4$를 기반의 유도결합 플라즈마(inductively coupled plasma, ICP) 장비를 사용하여 제작되었다. Au 나노 입자의 마스크 패턴 및 에칭된 실리콘 SWS 프로파일은 scanning electron microscope를 사용하여 관찰하였으며, UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer를 사용하여 300-1100 nm 파장 영역에 따른 반사율을 측정하였다. ICP 에칭 조건을 변화시켜 가장 낮은 반사율을 갖는 최적화된 실리콘 SWS 반사방지막을 도출하였다. 최적화된 구조에 대해서, 실리콘 SWS 반사방지막은 벌크 실리콘 (>35%)보다 더 낮은 5% 이하의 반사율을 나타냈다.

We propose new pulse shapes for FCC-compliant ultra-wideband (UWB) radios. The projections onto convex sets (POCS) technique is used to optimize temporal and spectral shapes of UWB pulses under the constraints of all of the desired UWB signal properties: efficient spectral utilization under the FCC spectral mask, time-limitedness, and good autocorrelation. Simulation results show that for all values of the pulse duration, the new pulse shapes not only meet the FCC spectral mask most efficiently, but also have nearly the same autocorrelation functions. It is also observed that our truncated (i.e., strictly time-limited) pulse shapes outperform the truncated Gaussian monocycle in the BER performance of binary TH-PPM systems for the same pulse durations. The POCS technique provides an effective method for designing UWB pulse shapes in terms of its inherent design flexibility and joint optimization capability.

High efficiency switching mode circuits such as class I amplifiers have been well known in the MHz frequency range. The class E amplifier is a type of switching mode amplifier offering very high efficiency approaching 100%. In this paper, the class E amplifier has been designed by using the harmonic balance method of circuit simulator. The designed amplifier is realized by using pHEMT and microstrip line, shows 66% power added efficiency (PAE) at 2.4GHz with 17.6dBm output power. With -3dBm input power of wireless LAN, measured output spec01m can meet the required IEEE 802.11g standard spectrum mask. That means the required amplifier back off of 9dB from $P_{ldB}$ to satisfy the required wireless LAN spectrum mask.

In this paper. we propose an effective mask estimation scheme for missing-feature reconstruction in order to achieve robust speech recognition under unknown noise environments. In the previous work. colored noise is used for training the mask classifer, which is generated from the entire frequency Partitioned signals. However it gives a limited performance under the restricted number of training database. To reflect the spectral events of more various background noise and improve the performance simultaneously. a new Bayesian classifier for mask estimation is proposed, which works independent of other frequency bands. In the proposed method, we employ the colored noise which is obtained by combining colored noises generated from each frequency band in order to reflect more various noise environments and mitigate the 'sparse' database problem. Combined with the cluster-based missing-feature reconstruction. the performance of the proposed method is evaluated on a task of noisy speech recognition. The results show that the proposed method has improved performance compared to the Previous method under white noise. car noise and background music conditions.

This study intended to verify the effects of face masks on the Korean language in terms of acoustic, aerodynamic, and formant parameters. We chose all types of face masks available in Korea based on filter performance and folding type. Two professional voice actors (a male and a female) with more than 20 years of experience who are native Koreans and speak standard Korean participated in this study as speakers of voice data. Face masks attenuated the high-frequency range, resulting in decreased Vowel Space Area (VSA) and Vowel Articulation Index (VAI)scores and an increased Low-to-High spectral ratio (L/H ratio) in all voice samples. This can result in lower speech intelligibility. However, the degree of increment and decrement was based on the voice characteristics. For female speakers, the Speech Level (SL) and Cepstral Peak Prominence (CPP) increased with increasing face mask thickness. In this study, the presence or filter performance of a face mask was found to affect speech acoustic parameters according to the speech characteristics. Face masks provoked vocal effort when the vocal intensity was not sufficiently strong, or the environment had less reverberance. Further research needs to be conducted on the vocal efforts induced by face masks to overcome acoustic modifications when wearing masks.

When we use Hadamard transform spectrometers (HTS), we can increase signal to noise ratio(SNR) by multiplexing which is done by masks. But if the mask has a single defective element, output-SNR decreases. In this paper the effect of a single defective element on the output-SNR is investigated. And a method of compensating for the defective mask element is presented.
