This paper proposes a selective-weighted energy detection (S-WED) and a synchronization algorithm appropriate for it in IR-UWB system. Energy detectors that are practical in terms of implementation are employed widely for noncoherent reception in IR-UWB systems. However, they show low performance due to using the energy samples captured at symbol rate. For this reason, weighted energy detectors are developed to improve the performance of EDs. Hence, for WED, not only synchronization but also the weight coefficients are needed to be obtained prior to data detection. Meanwhile, the optimal weighting coefficients of WEDs are known to be energy values. Therefore, synchronization and the weighting coefficients can be obtained simultaneously. This paper proposes an S-WED and a simple synchronization algorithm for it in which sub-intervals having energies under a certain level are excluded in energy accumulation resulting in a simpler WED with a bit performance increase in low SNR region. The proposed algorithm is verified through simulations using the preamble symbol and channel models defined in the IEEE 802.15.4a.

Feature detection is recognized as an accurate spectrum sensing approach when the information of the desired signal is partly known at the receiver. This type of detection was proposed to overcome large noise environment. Cyclostationary detection is an example of feature detection in spectrum sensing technique in cognitive radio. However, the cyclostationary process calculation requires a lot of processing time and information about the designed signals. On the other hand, energy detection spectrum sensing is widely known as a simple and compact spectrum sensing technique. However, energy detection is highly affected by large noise and lead to high detection error probability. In this paper, the combination of energy detection and cyclostationary is proposed in order to increase the accuracy and decrease the calculation and processing time. The two-layer threshold is utilized in order to reduce the complexity of computation and processing time in cyclostationary which can lead to the improved throughput of the system. The simulation result shows that the implementation of energy-based cyclostationary detector can help to improve the performance of the system while it can considerably reduce the required time for signal detection.

In this paper, we are suggested development of dual-mode detector for dual-energy digital radiography. Design of dual-energy radiography module for commercial BIS (Baggage Inspection System) is used in the spectrum of the X-ray generator and detector for dual-mode features and radiological characteristics were analyzed. BIS suggestl on the image detector module being used to target X-ray tube to simulate X-ray spectrum and simulated spectrum to offer through the new radiographic characteristics of the detector modules were investigated. Using X-ray experiments with an increase in the thickness of the copper filter low energy detector (LED) and high-energy detector (HED) as the difference between the output signal increases. HED, especially in the size of the output signal decreases with increasing thickness of the copper filter was found.

Teager-Kaiser algorithm that can track the energy of tone signals with simple nonlinear operations, has been applied to detection of tone signals closely spaced in frequency. The performance of the previous detector depends upon the performance of internal filters. An improved scheme is proposed in this paper by employing the nonlinear energy trackers in cascade. The proposed detector is analytically designed and verified by computer simulation. It shows that the new detection scheme improves the detection performance while reducing the implementation complexity.

In the gamma-ray energy spectrum study, nuclide analysis through energy analysis is very important. High-purity Ge detectors, which are commonly used for gamma-ray energy measurements, are commonly used because of their high energy resolution and relatively high detection efficiency. However, in order to maintain a high energy resolution, the semiconductor detector has a problem in that it is difficult to maintain the original performance if the noise generated from the surrounding environment is not effectively blocked, and the effect of the expensive device is not achieved. Therefore, in this study, ground loop isolator (NEXT-001HDGL) was used to remove the electrical noise generated from the detector. In order to test the effect of improving energy resolution, HPGe detection device newly installed in the proton accelerator KOMAC was used. In the case of gamma-ray energy 2614 keV, the energy resolution was improved from (0.16 ± 0.02) % to (0.11 ± 0.01) %, and in the case of gamma-ray energy 662 keV of 137Cs isotope, the energy resolution was improved from (0.72 ± 0.07) % to (0.27 ± 0.03) %. This result is considered to be very useful for the gamma ray spectrum study using the HPGe detection equipment of KOMAC(Korea Multi-Purpose Accelerator Complex).

This paper presents a robust speech end-point detector using double talk detection in echoic conditioned speech recognition robot.

We have tested the proposed method in isolated word recognition system under echoic conditioned environment. As a result, the proposed algorithm shows superior performance of 30 % to the available techniques in the points of speech recognition rates.

Facial analysis is used in many applications like face recognition systems, human-computer interface through head movements or facial expressions, model based coding, or virtual reality. In all these applications a very precise extraction of facial feature points are necessary. In this paper we presents a method for automatic extraction of the facial features Points such as mouth corners, eye corners, eyebrow corners. First, face region is detected by AdaBoost-based object detection algorithm. Then a combination of three kinds of feature energy for facial features are computed; valley energy, intensity energy and edge energy. After feature area are detected by searching horizontal rectangles which has high feature energy. Finally, a corner detection algorithm is applied on the end region of each feature area. Because we integrate three feature energy and the suggested estimation method for valley energy and intensity energy are adaptive to the illumination change, the proposed feature extraction method is robust under various conditions.

소음이 존재하지 않는 환경에서는 에너지 파라메터만으로도 정확한 끝점 검출을 수 행할 수 있으나 신호대 잡음비가 0dB에 가까운 자동차 환경에서는 끝점 검출이 거의 불가 능하다. 본 논문에서는 자동차 소음 환경에서 음성 구간 검출을 위하여 단구간 영교차율과 2∼4kHz의 주파수 영역 에너지를 사용한 끝점 검출 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법과 기 존의 방법의 성능을 DTW를 이용한 단독음 인식 시스템에 적용하여 인식률로 비교하였으 며 제안된 음성 구간 검출 방법을 적용한 경우가 보다 좋은 인식률을 나타내었다.
