Fracture behaviors of single-edge-notched monolithic aluminum plates and glass fiber/aluminum laminates under tensile loadings have been studied using acoustic emission(AE) monitoring. AE signals from monolithic aluminum could beclassified into two different types. For glass fiber/aluminum laminates, AE signals with high amplitude and long duration were additionally confirmed on FFT frequency analysis, which corresponded to macrocrack propagation and/or delamination. AE source location determined by signal arrival time showed the zone of fracture. On the basis of the above AE analysis and fracture observation, characteristic features of fracture processes of single-edge-notched glass fiber/aluminum laminates were elucidated according to different fiber ply orientations and fiber/aluminum lay-up ratios.

This paper describes a method for sinusoidal modeling of audio signals using perceptually weighted matching pursuit. Matching pursuits extracts iteratively the greatest energy signals from the input signals until the residual between the original and the reconstructed signal is zero. In this paper, perceptual matching pursuits using psychoacoustic model to matching pursuit extracts greatest perceived energy iteratively. To evaluate the performance of the perceptual matching pursuits it is compared with the sinusoidal matching pursuits which is not included perceptual weighting. For various audio signals the result of simulation shows that the perceptual matching pursuit is superior to the sinusoidal matching pursuits, especially for a high change rate in time domain it can synthesized original signal.

Estimating the mutual time delay between two acoustic sensors is used in various fields such as tracking and estimating the location of a target in room acoustics and sonar. In the time delay estimation methods, there are a non-parametric method, such as Generalized Cross Correlation (GCC), and a parametric method based on system identification. In this paper, we propose a time delay estimation method based on the parametric method. In particular, we propose a method that considers the noise in each receiving acoustic sensor. Simulation confirms that the proposed algorithm is superior to the existing generalized cross-correlation and adaptive eigenvalue analysis methods in white noise and reverberation environments.

Ultrasonic inspection methods are widely used for detecting flaws in materials. The signal analysis step plays a crucial part in the data interpretation process. A number of signal processing methods have been proposed to classify ultrasonic flaw signals. One of the more popular methods involves the extraction of an appropriate set of features followed by the use of a neural network for the classification of the signals in the feature space. This paper describes an alternative approach which uses the least mean square (LMS) method and expectation maximization (EM) algorithm with the model based deconvolution which is employed for classifying nondestructive evaluation (NDE) signals from steam generator tubes in a nuclear power plant. The signals due to cracks and deposits are not significantly different. These signals must be discriminated to prevent from happening a huge disaster such as contamination of water or explosion. A model based deconvolution has been described to facilitate comparison of classification results. The method uses the space alternating generalized expectation maximization (SAGE) algorithm In conjunction with the Newton-Raphson method which uses the Hessian parameter resulting in fast convergence to estimate the time of flight and the distance between the tube wall and the ultrasonic sensor Results using these schemes for the classification of ultrasonic signals from cracks and deposits within steam generator tubes are presented and showed a reasonable performances.

In this paper, it is shown that B-CDMA systems inherently reduce the effects of Multi Path fading phenomena which causes to degrade the performance of mobile communication systems. B-COMA systems use PN codes of high chip rates ( > 10 Mbps) and evaluate autocorrelation with the same code in the receiver. Therefore, it is possible that multipath signals, whose delay time is longer than one chip duration compared to the first signal, are removed. We model the wideband fading channel as a suitable linear filter, and perform computer simulation of signal transmission and reception. Graphic comparison of eye diagrams between the narrowband and wideband systems is shown.

유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에서 다양한 위치 기반 서비스(LBS)를 위해 객체 위치 인식은 필수적인 기술이다. 객체의 위치를 판별하기 위해서 GPS 시스템, 다수의 RF 신호 세기를 이용한 시스템이 이용되고 있다. GPS 시스템의 경우 고가의 수신기가 필요하며 실내 측위 환경에서 활용될 수 없으며, RF 신호를 이용한 위치 인식 시스템의 경우 빠른 신호 속도와 페이딩의 영향으로 충분한 신호의 해상도확보하기 어렵다. 하지만 상대적으로 느린 초음파를 이용한 경우 신호의 해상도가 높아 RF 기반 위치 측위 시스템보다 높은 정확도의 위치 인식이 가능하다. 초음파를 이용한 위치 인식 기술은 RF 통신을 통해 해당 초음파의 정보를 식별하고, 초음파와 RF 신호의 도달 시간의 차를 이용해 위치를 판별한다. 본 논문에서는 초음파 신호 부호화 기법을 통해 RF 통신 모듈 없이 다중 객체의 위치를 인식하는 시스템을 설계하고 구현한다.

The technology of direction finding is very important to find the direction of emitters for ELINT(electronic intelligence) system. The principle of TDOA(time difference of arrival) is to receive an emitter signal with two antennas, measure the time difference between two antennas, and converse the time difference to direction difference. This technology can be used in broadband frequency system and make the system very simple because a phase-discriminator and a voltage comparator are not needed. For fine DF accuracy, high time resolution receiver and long basis line antennas are needed. The DF accuracy of noise added signals is simulated with different time
