MBE (multi-band excitation) coder can achieve high qualify synthetic speech below 4.0 kbps. There are, however, significant differences of the fine structure between the original spectrum and the synthetic spectrum. They are mainly due to the exclusive partition of voiced and unvoiced regions in frequency domain and the decision procedure based on the experimental threshold. This paper proposes MMBE (mixed multi-band excitation) speech model to overcome drawbacks of a MBE coder. In addition, two analysis methods, which do not need my decision procedure based on a threshold, are presented. Both voiced and unvoiced components can be mixed over all the frequency axis in the MMBE speech model. To illustrate the potential of the proposed speech model, we develop a 2.6 kbps MMBE coder and compare it with a 2.9 kbps MBE coder by both objective and subjective methods. The results have shown that the proposed coder has a better performance even at a lower bit-rate compared with the MBE coder.

Due to aging, adhesively bonded and riveted aircraft lap joints can contain distends, cracks around rivet holes, fatigue induced flaws, and corrosion. It is required for the safety of aircraft to inspect these defects through the whole region of mint in rapid speed. Bond quality or adhesively bonded and riveted aluminum lap splice joints is investigated using non-contact remote ultrasonic nondestructive evaluation (NDE). Non-contact ultrasonic tests are performed using laser generation and air-coupled transducer detection. A Q-switched Nd:YAG laser and a periodic transmission mask are used to generate a selected Lamb mode. The Lamb wave is generated on one side of the lap splice joint, propagates along the plate, interacts with the joint and is detected on the other side by a micromachined air-coupled capacitance transducer. Analysis of recorded signals allows to evaluate the condition of the bond.

This paper presents real time implementation of 4kbps EHSX (Enhanced Harmonic Stochastic Excitation) speech coder that combines the harmonic vector excitation coding with time-separated transition coding. The harmonic vector excitation coding uses the harmonic excitation coding for voiced frames and used the vector excitation coding with the structure of analysis-by-synthesis for unvoiced frames, respectively. For transition frames mixed with voiced and unvoiced signal, we use the time-separated transition coding. In this paper. we present the optimization methods of implementation speech coder on the EMS320C6701/sup (R)/ DSP. To reduce the complex for real-time implementation. we perform the optimization method in algorithm by replacing the complex sinusoidal synthesis method with IFFT. and we apply fully pipelines hand assembly coding after converting it from floating source to fixed source. To generate a more efficient code. we also make use or the available EMS320C6701/sup (R)/ resources such as Fastest67x library and memory organization.

In the sum and difference pattern synthesis problem of the equi-spaced monopulse tracking linear array antennas, an efficient numerical approach to deriving the relative excitation current weights of antenna elements is presented for the desired patterns. This method is based on the optimum perturbation of null points which are inherent to the Schelkunoffs polynomial representing the pattern array factor. Accordingly, opposite to the conventional method in which the excitation weights are directly optimized, this method is advantageous in that the patterns with the desired individual sidelobe levels(SLLs) and the corresponding excitation weights are easily synthesized by the control of null points. Furthermore, it is showed that two types of difference patterns can be synthesized as imposing the different initial values of null points in the optimization process. The proposed method is numerically validated by synthesizing the patterns with the arbitrary SLLs and substituting the extracted results into the array factor equation.

Since a codebook-based CELP coder models its excitation signal according to one of several bit rates pre-assigned to codebooks and synthesizes speech signal using codebooks, it can not support encoding of speech signal at an arbitrary bit rate in one encoder. The proposed variable bit rate speech coder encodes the excitation signal based on the bit rate assigned to a present frame of speech using one-dimensional SPIHT and wavelet transform. Also it does't need to model excitation signal (or codebook) to some types as CELP coder, and can encode excitation signal at various bit rates without exact pitch information according to user requirement. As a result, since the coder doesn't have a codebook structure, it has relatively low coder complexity and provides equal or better speech quality compared to G.729 and G.723.1 coder.

To develop the red pepper seasoning oil(RPSO), corn oil was used as the base oil. For generating hot taste and color, oleoresin capsicum and oleoresin paprika were mixed to base oil (SSO1). Then, for generating black red color, natural black pigment that is extracted from gardenia and kaoliang was added SSO1 to prepare SSO2. To magnify the hot taste, extract of red pepper, phosphoric salt and emulsifier (monogly 20) were. then added to SSO2 to prepare SSO3. This SSO3 was very similar to real red pepper seed oil as a color and taste, but its hot flavor was not enough. To resolve this problem, we mixed about 5% of another oil(SSO4), which was mingled and roasted red pepper powder with corn oil, to SSO3. In terms of above experiment, RPSO was obtained.

In this Paper, the structure of a split bandwidth wideband speech coder and its highband coder for tone qualify elevation are Proposed. The lowband and highband by the split bandwidth method are encoded independently applying the G.729E and MLT (Modulated Lapped Transform) residual model. In the highband structure which is encoded by low bit rate of 4kbps, the MLT residual signals are distinguished to voice and unvoice signal . The voice signals are applied to MLT peak picking method by lowband pitch period. Because transformed MLT residual signals are represented by periodic signal that have periodic peak. The unvoice signals are applied to MLT which linear prediction spectral response is added and do vector quantization. Performance for proposed 15.8kbps wideband speech coder was verified through subjective listening test.
