This paper addresses the way in which we can find where impulsive noise sources are. Specifically, we have an interest in the case that the signal is embedded in noise. We propose a signal processing method that can identify impulsive sources' location. The method is robust with respect to spatially distributed noise. This has been achieved by the modified beamforming method with regard to cepstrum domain is used. It is noteworthy that the cepstrum has the ability to detect periodic pulse signal in noise. Numerical simulation and experiments are performed to verify the method. Results show that the proposed technique is quite powerful for localizing the faults in noisy environments. The method also required less microphones than conventional beamforming method.

층간소음의 대부분의 원인이 아이들 뛰거나 발걸음으로 나타나고 있어 층간소음 저감을 위한 선행 연구로 층간소음의 주요 충격원인 보행 행위에 대한 정밀한 연구가 필요하다. 성인 보행 충격력과 그에 따른 바닥충격음을 계측하여 보행하중이 바닥충격음에 영향을 주는 요소를 분석하였다. 보행하중 중 발 뒤꿈치 충격력은 전체 충격하중을 주파수 특성을 대변할 수 있는 임펄스 형태의 하중으로 충격력은 뱅머신 또는 고무공보다 낮지만 1 차 영점(First zero)이 80Hz 정도로 높아 유효 가진 주파수 대역이 표준 중량충격원 보다 높았다. 구조물과 수음실의 고유모드 특성으로 인해 외부 충격에 대한 구조체 진동 및 음압의 공진 현상이 발생되기 때문에 공진 성분이 포함되는 바닥충격음 레벨은 순수 충격력 특성인 보행 또는 표준 중량충격원의 옥타브 밴드 충격력 폭로레벨과는 전혀 다른 주파수 특성을 나타내었다.

For the evaluation of the normalized impact sound pressure level, the reverberation time of the receiving room should be measured. This paper deals with the effect of the time constant of FFT analyzer and the measuring points on reverberation time. It is found that the time constant should be in the range between 10 ms and 35 ms. While the effect of measuring points on the reverberation time is significant when the bandwidth is narrow it is negligible in the evaluation of the normalized impact sound pressure level.

Passive sonar system is designed to classify the underwater targets by analyzing and comparing the various acoustic characteristics such as signal strength, bandwidth, number of tonals and relationship of tonals from the extracted tonals and frequency lines. First of all the precise detection and extraction of signal frequency lines is of particular importance for enhancing the reliability of target classification. But, the narrowband frequency lines which are the line formed in spectrogram by a tonal of constant frequency in each frame can be detected weakly or discontinuously because of the variation of signal strength and transmission loss in the sea. Also, it is very difficult to detect and extract precisely the signal frequency lines by the complexity of impulsive ambient noise and signal components. In this paper, the automatic detection and extraction method that can detect and extract the signal components of frequency tines precisely are proposed. The proposed method can be applied under the bad conditions with weak signal strength and high ambient noise. It is confirmed by the simulation using real underwater target data.
