In this paper, we propose a wavelet-based detection method to identify efficiently the time-delay or multipath channel of ocean acoustic signals due to complex ocean medium and boundary layers. Our proposed method employs wavelet packet transform to analyze the received broadband acoustic signals and applies the matched filter to determine the time region of interest. Also, we present numerical testing that results on both the simulated and real data revealed the efficiency of this method in time-delay estimation and moreover its capability in estimating the time-delay of individual path in multipath channel, in which the arrival patterns are too close to be separated by the matched filter method.

In this paper, we propose a subband acoustic echo canceller using the weighted Overlap-add adaptive filter bank to prevent the decrease of convergence speed in full-band US processing, and make it possible to realize the adaptive filter in block-parallel processing, this paper introduces the weighted overlap-add technique for subband echo canceller. Moreover, we propose a new double-talk detector which employs dedicated filter in addition to the energy comparison method simultaneously. The computer simulation results show that the performance of the proposed subband adaptive echo canceller double-talk detection

Acousto-optical wavelength tunable optical filters in LiNbO$_3$ have been demonstrated using taperd directional weighted coupling acoustic waveguides and Ti double diffusion technique. Conversion efficiency in excess of 61%, 86% and sidelobe intensity of -14.29㏈, -14.99㏈ were measured at a wavelength of 1551.1nm RF frequency of 173.58MHz and RF power of 35㎽ for both TE and TM input polarizations, respectivelv. A spectral width of ~l.8nm and linear tuning late of 8.6nm/MHz were demonstrated. A 2.82$mutextrm{s}$ switching time has been measured. With two channels with 2.5nmseparation, channel cross-talk was lower than -l4㏈ for single wavelength filtering due to sidelobe.

In general, analog amplifiers for 5.1 or more channels have been used to configure home theater systems. In order to make high-performance systems, it is desirable to process audio signals in digital techniques in consideration of output and efficiency of speakers. Especially we need 7.1-channel system to separate audio signals efficiently. In this paper we implemented the architecture of S/PDIF 7.1-channel digital amplifier for home theater systems. The amplifier shows good performance with less loss of original sounds because of both strong characteristics against noises and direct processing of input data.

This paper proposes a novel approach to the problem of audio signal clustering using a stacked autoencoder. The proposed stacked autoencoder learns an efficient representation for the input signal, enables clustering constituent signals with similar characteristics, and therefore the original sources can be separated based on the clustering results. STFT (Short-Time Fourier Transform) is performed to extract time-frequency spectrum, and rectangular windows at all the possible locations are used as input values to the autoencoder. The outputs at the middle, encoding layer, are used to cluster the rectangular windows and the original sources are separated by the Wiener filters derived from the clustering results. Source separation experiments were carried out in comparison to the conventional NMF (Non-negative Matrix Factorization), and the estimated sources by the proposed method well represent the characteristics of the orignal sources as shown in the time-frequency representation.

Rocket noise generated from the exhaust plume produces the enormous acoustic loading, which adversely affects the integrity of the electronic components and payload (satellite) at liftoff. The prediction of rocket noise consists of two steps: the supersonic jet exhaust is simulated by a method of the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and an acoustic transport method, such as the Helmholtz-Kirchhoff integral, is applied to predict the noise field. One of the difficulties in the CFD step is to remove the boundary reflection artifacts from the finite computation boundary. In general, artificial damping, known as a sponge layer, is added nearby the boundary to attenuate these reflected waves but this layer demands a large computational area and an optimization procedure of related parameters. In this paper, a cost-efficient way to separate the reflected waves based on the two microphone method is firstly introduced and applied to the computation result of a laboratory-scale supersonic jet noise without sponge layers.

According to developments of digital signal processing, 3D sound come into focus on multimedia systems. Many studies on 3d sound have proposed lots of clues to create realistic sounds. But these clues are only focused on binaural systems which two ears are normal. If we make the 3d sound using those clues at monaural systems, the performance goes down dramatically. In order to use the clues for monaural systems, we have studies algorithms such as duplex theory. In duplex theory, the sounds that we listen are affected by human's body, pinna and shoulder. So, we can enhance sound localization performances using its characteristics. In this paper, we propose a new method to use psychoacoustic theory that creates realistic 3D audio at monaural systems. To improve 3d sound, we calculate the excitation energy rates of each symmetric HRTF and extract the weights in each bark range. Finally, they are applied to emphasize the characteristics related to each direction. Informal listening tests show that the proposed method improves sound localization performances much better than the conventional methods.

Sound barrier walls are one of the most effective alternatives for reducing environmental noise on roads and railways in the city center. The insertion loss of the sound barrier against road traffic noise is the sum of the sound transmission loss, sound absorption loss, and sound energy reduction due to the diffraction attenuation of the sound barrier. The sound transmission loss of the sound barrier is one of the important factors that determine the insertion loss of the sound barrier and is a basic indicator that determines the performance of the sound barrier. Nevertheless, there is not a separate standard in Korea for measuring the acoustic transmission loss of sound barrier panels. There are only a few conditions in KS F 4770 series that stipulates on the general material of sound barrier panels. This thesis examines the necessity of the acoustic transmission loss measurement and evaluation standards of sound barrier walls, and seeks a measurement method in a free sound field (anechoic chamber) sound receiving room considering the characteristics of sound barrier walls installed in external spaces, unlike indoor building materials. In addition, a single number evaluation method using a reference spectrum was proposed so that the sound insulation effect according to various installation places such as roadside or railroad side can be easily displayed.
