Recent developments in the prediction of the contribution of windnoise to the interior SPL have opened a realm of new possibilities in terms of i) how the convective and acoustic sources terms can be identified, ii) how the interaction between the source terms and the side glass can be described and finally iii) how the transfer path from the sources to the interior of the vehicle can be modelled. This work discusses several simulation methods that can be used to represent the physical phenomena involved such as CFD, FEM, BEM, FE/SEA Coupled and SEA. This work focuses on the validation of the wind noise source characterization method and the vibro-acoustic models on which the wind noise sources are applied in the framework of a benchmark proposed by Hyundai Motors Corporation.

본 연구에서는 마이크로폰 어레이를 이용하여 화자의 음성신호로부터 화자의 위치를 추정하는 기존의 대표적인 알고리듬인 CPSP(Cross Power Spectrum Phase)로부터 보다 반향에 강인한 알고리듬인 저주파 위상 복원 알고리듬을 제안한다. CPSP 함수는 상호 상관관계(Cross Correlation)가 정규화 되어있는 형태를 갖는데, CPSP 함수의 최대 값 인덱스로부터 화자의 공간정보인 TDOA(Time Difference Of Arrival)를 추출한다. 그러나 CPSP 함수를 이용한 공간정보 추정 알고리듬은 실내환경에서 심각하게 일어나는 반향신호에 대해서 취약한 단점을 갖고 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 저주파 위상복원 알고리듬은 주파수 측면에서 반향신호가 CPSP 함수에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 반향으로 인하여 왜곡된 위상 성분을 복원함으로써 보다 신뢰도 있는 TDOA 추정을 가능하게 한다. 반향신호로 인한 CPSP의 위상은 저주파보다 고주파에서 심하게 왜곡되는데, 각각의 반향신호의 도달 시간을 기하학적 분포를 갖는 확률변수로 모델링하여 이를 수학적으로 증명하였다. 또한 실제 환경에서 채집한 음성신호를 이용한 모의 실험을 통해 개선된 알고리듬의 성능 개선을 확인하였다.

With the increase in discomfort of living by serious traffic noise pollution, the desire of relieving from discomfort is boosted up more than ever. For this reason, the researches on environmental impact assessmient and noise pollution control are highly required. This research was aimed to analyze the physical characteristics of noise caused by high-speed train in foreign countries by literature survey and field data. And with the attained results, the exterior noise level around Chon-An station, the first station planned for the high-speed train in this country, was estimated. The results of this study might be used as a tool for predicting the unavoidable noise, lessening the noise impact caused by the high-speed train, and preparing the noise prevention measures for the interior space and the exterior around stations.

본 연구에서는 음향센싱 기법을 활용하여 소류사량 계측이 가능한 센서인 파이프 하이드로폰을 2가지 형태로 개발하여 설치 형태에 따른 소류사량 계측 성능을 비교·분석하였다. 파이프 하이드로폰은 수리구조물 끝단에 설치하는 부착식 하이드로폰과 하천 하상에 설치 가능한 형태로 제작하였으며, 파이프 하이드로폰의 실내 실험을 위한 수리실험장치를 구축하였다. 소류사 음향 데이터를 수집 및 저장하기 위해 National Instrument사에서 개발된 LabVIEW 언어를 이용하여 데이터 분석 프로그램을 개발하였으며, 데이터를 시계열 그래프로 표출하여 센서를 통해 계측되는 소류사의 특성을 분석하였다. 분석 결과 하천 하상 설치 형태의 파이프 하이드로폰은 후류가 발생하여 센서 후면으로 소류사가 재충돌되는 현상이 발생하였으며, 이에 6~9% 정도의 과다 산출되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 소류사가 센서에 퇴적되어 지속적인 데이터를 취득하기에는 적합하지 못할 것으로 판단되었다. 동일한 조건으로 실험한 부착식 하이드로폰은 후류로 인한 재충돌 현상 및 퇴적현상 또한 발생하지 않았으며, 소류사량 추정 결과 90.9%로 양호한 수준의 성능이 확인되었다.

This paper investigates the effects of diffuser on the acoustical parameters in music hall with consideration of the result of scattering coefficient measurement. A scale model hall of 600 seats with orchestra shell was used for experiments. The materials of 1:50 scale model was chosen through absorption coefficient measurement based on ISO 354. The model was matched to the computer simulation model in terms of reverberation time. In order to evaluate the effect of diffuser location, the measurements were accomplished with and without diffusers according to 7 configurations by diffuser-installed region; sidewall, balcony front, ceiling and so on. The following acoustical parameters were extracted from each measurement case; Reverberation time (RT), Early decay time (EDT), Clarity (C80), Center time (Ts), Sound strength (G) and Temporal diffusion (TD) from the auto-correlation function (ACF) of impulse responses. As a result, the absorption power and diffusion power were increased with number of diffusers. Accordingly RT, EDT and G were decreased by diffuser and the redirection of reflections was occurred briskly. Averaged TD was 6.05 to 6.30 by measurement cases. RT was found to be the most related factor to diffusion power (R = 0.94). The correlation between TD and EDT was high (R = 0.73). In addition, the effects of diffuser-installed location were discussed in terms of acoustical parameter variation.

The convolution code(CC) of code rate 1/2 as a forward error correction (FEC) in Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) is applied to decrease bit error rate (BER) by background noise and multipath in shallow water acoustic channel. Ratio of transmitting signal bandwidth to channel coherence bandwidth is defined as frequency selectivity index. BER and bit energy-to-noise ratio gain of transmitted signal according to frequency selectivity index are evaluated. In the results of indoor water tank experiment, BER is well matched theoretical results at frequency selectivity index less than about 1.0. And bit energy-to-noise ratio gain is also matched theoretical value of 5 dB. BER is effectively decreased at frequency selective multipath channel with frequency selectivity index higher than 1.0. But bit energy-to-noise ratio greater than a certain size in terms of CC weaving is effective in reducing bit errors. In the results, the defined frequency selectivity index in this study could be applied to evaluate a performance of CC in multipath channel. Also it could effectively reduced BER in a low speed underwater acoustic communication system without an equalizer.

Large span spaces have been widely used for various purposes including sports events in other countries. Due to increasing demands on multi-purpose use of such spaces, recently built large span sport facilities such dome stadiums have been required to accommodate sport events as well as performing events. Also, retractable ceilings and/or walls were generally adopted in those spaces for providing various event conditions. It seems obvious that the openings between diffuse fields and free field may cause difficulties in the acoustic design of such spaces In the present work, the acoustic characteristics of non-diffuse field has been investigated using 1/10 acoustic scale models. It was found that RTs at low- and mid-frequencies decayed faster than those at high-frequencies as the percentage of opening area increased. The decay rate of RTs at high frequencies were not influenced by increasing the area of an opening. Also high dependence of EDT on the percentage of opening area was observed at all frequency range. D50 was not improved by increasing the area of an opening up to 12.5% and then sharply increased. The application of Schroeder integration to evaluate the reverberation charateristics of coupled spaces may not be proper, since non-exponential decay process with double or triple decays of those spaces can not be properly defined. EDT seems more appropriate to predict reverberation at the early acoustic design stage of acoustically coupled spaces.

This study investigated the effect of noise and reverberation on subjective measure of speech transmission performance for elderly person with hearing loss in residential space through listening test. Floor impact, road traffic, airborne, and drainage noise were employed as the residential noise, and several impulse responses were obtained through room acoustical computer simulation for an apartment building. Sound sources for the listening test consisted of residential noises and speech sounds for boh the young (the original sound) and the aged (the sound filtered out by filters with frequency responses of hearing loss of 65 years elderly person). In the listening test, subjects evaluated speech intelligibility and listening difficulty for the presented word ($L_{Aeq}$ 55 dB) at three noise levels ($L_{Aeq}$ 30, 40, 50 dB) and three reverberation times (0.5, 1.0, 1.5 s). Results showed that the residential space with noise level lower than equal to 50 dB ($L_{i,Fmax,AW}$) for jumping noise and 40 dB ($L_{Aeq}$) for road traffic, airborne, and drainage noise had speech intelligibility of 90 % and over and listening difficulty of 30 % and below. Speech intelligibility and listening difficulty for the aged sound source was shown to be 0 % ~ 5 % lower and 2 % ~ 20 % higher than those for the young sound source, respectively.

In this paper, we proposes an idea for improved sound characteristic which decreasing a problem in previous reverberation algorism structure. To later reflection sound, proposed new reverberation structure, using a lopped and nested all-pass delay line, and it is designed to improve an natural concert hall sound. In addition, In order to have best imaginary sound effect, we extracted the factors by controlling each delay line's delay time, and we realized a proposed new algorithm by using general-purpose DSP. Through several experimental cases, we observed better effect on improvement of linear flatten and reverberation density and decreasing about colorlessness and non-linear sound at previous proposed model about impulse input.

The pressure oscillation induced by inhibitor in a solid rocket motor has been investigated by 3D large eddy simulation(LES) and proper orthogonal decomposition(POD). The vortex generation and breakdown at inhibitor are periodically observed between the inhibitor and the nozzle by flow-acoustic coupling mechanism. The excitation of pressure oscillation occurs as the flow impinges on the submerged nozzle head which recirculate in the cavity in rear dome of the motor chamber. The vortex generation frequency is closely related with the shedding frequencies of the detached vorticities at the inhibiter, which fairly compared with the experimental data.
