기존의 음성인식시스템의 잡음환경에서 인식률의 한계를 극복하기 위해 음성신호뿐만이 아니라 입술정보를 결합하여 음성인식에 이용하여 바이모달(Bi-modal) 음성인식이 근래에 제안되어지고 있다. 그래서 바이모달 음성인식 시스템을 실제로 구현해보고 인식 실험을 수행해 보았다. 입술영상은 이미지에 근거한 입술모양을 파라메터화하여 인식실험에 사용하였으며 음성과 입술영상을 각각 인식한 후 인식스코어(Score)에 가중치를 적용하여 통합하는 방법을 사용하였다. 마지막으로 바이모달 음성인식의 잡음환경에서의 성능을 알아보기 위해 음성신호에 여러 레벨의 잡음을 섞어서 실험을 하고 잡음환경에서 인식률의 한계를 입술정보를 이용하여 극복할 수 있다는 것을 보이고자 한다.

An auditory model is proposed for robust speech recognition in noisy environments. The model consists of cochlear bandpass filters and nonlinear stages, and represents frequency and intensity information efficiently even in noisy environments. Frequency information of the signal is obtained by zero-crossing intervals, and intensity information is also incorporated by peak detectors and saturating nonlinearities. Also, the robustness of the zero-crossings in estimating frequency is verified by the developed analytic relationship of the variance of the level-crossing interval perturbations as a function of the crossing level values. The proposed auditory model is computationally efficient and free from many unknown parameters compared with other auditory models. Speaker-independent speech recognition experiments demonstrate the robustness of the proposed method.

마이크로파대 이상의 높은 RF 전파는 신호레벨이 비교적 작고 간섭현상에 매우 민감한 특성을 가지고 있다. 따라서 이러한 미소한 입력전파의 수신시 수신기 전체의 감도를 높이고 잡음을 저감시킬 목적으로 사용되는 고주파 증폭기가 저잡음 증폭기이다. 본 고에서는 LNA의 기본적 특성분석과 지능형교통시스템에 응용되는 5.8GHz대 단거리전용통신용 LNA를 구현하기 위한 기본 FET 증폭기의 전기적 특성을 연구하고 직렬 궤환에 의한 최소잡음과 최소 입력 정재파비의 최적 설계 파라미터를 도출하였다.

Satellite generates a complex electromagnetic noise by conducted and radiated coupling effect of the various electrical instruments. This noise may cause serious problems on the satellite system. To minimize the electromagnetic coupling effects and maintain the system safety margin, system noise reduction technique should be applied from the beginning of the system design. The COMS system is evaluated by measuring the conducted noise on system electrical power leads at PSR(Power Supply Regulator) and verifying a 6 dB system safety margin under the complex noise environment with current injection. The radiated noise due to the complex transmit antenna configuration is evaluated by integrating all unit-level RE measurement results, and the RF compatibility between spacecraft and launch vehicle is analyzed with the above estimations. This paper describes the COMS EMC compatibility analysis with respect to each unit level EMC test results, and RF compatibility analysis between spacecraft and launch vehicle. The analyzed results will be reflected on FM(Flight Model) EMC test.

The highest frequency band of wavelet decomposition band is divided into 4 equal subbands and by the minimum power of the subbands and by the monotonic transform, the level adapted threshold is obtained. The adapted threshold is applied to the soft threshold technique to denoise high and middle frequency band noise of image signals. And the results of PSNRs are compared with the results obtained by the VisuShrink technique and by the technique using the monotonic transform and the weight value. The results showed the validity of this technique.

In this paper, the effect of the phase noise of a local oscillator on the ACPR of a transmitter and the reception sensitivity of a receiver to meet the TIA/EIA/IS-98-D for the CDMA mobile station was analyzed. And the optimum condition for performance of the local oscillator was suggested. It was found that the phase noise level of the local oscillator in a receiver and a transmitter should be below -138.3dBc/Hz and -120dBc/Hz, respectively, at 900kHz offset. It was confirmed that the reception sensitivity and ACPR efficiency were satisfactory when the signal of the local oscillator to the down-converter of a receiver with the phase noise level of less than -138.3dBc/Hz is supplied to the up-converter of the transmitter.

Millimeter-wave tracking radars operate in various environmental restrictions, thus they demand stable power sources with low noise level under high fluctuation of input voltage. This paper presents the design and implementation of the compact power supply with max power of 727 W for Ka-band tracking radar applications. To meet requirements of voltage accuracy and system efficiency for transceiver circuits, upper plates of buck converters are attached on the covers of power supply for efficient heat dissipation. The proposed power supply achieves system efficiency of 88.4 %, output voltage accuracy of ±2 % and noise level of <1% under full load conditions.

In order to obtain the fundamental data on the auditory thresholds of fishes for marine ranching, the auditory thresholds of black rock fish Sebastes Schlegeli were measured in the presence of masking noise in the spectrum level range of 73 - 83dB (0dB re $1{\mu}Pa/{\sqrt{Hz}}$) with a classical cardiac conditioning technique. Critical ratios were about 19 - 30dB at 80 - 300Hz and 46 - 54dB at 500 - 800Hz. The ratio increased almost linearly with increasing frequency to 500Hz. The noise spectrum level at the start of masking was about 70dB within the frequency range of 80 - 800Hz excepting 65dB at 300Hz. This suggests that hearing of the black rock fish is masked in the natural environment with the noise spectrum level above 65dB. The sound pressure level of which the signal sound of 100 - 200Hz is recognized by black rock fish under the ambient noise is above 90dB and the critical ratio of them is above 20dB.

In daily life, there are many information broadcasting by using voice information systems. If surrounding noises are mixed with the information signals, the clarity of the signal become down graded too much to understand. Surrounding noises are not uniformed, but very irregular signals always changing. Therefore, it is very hard to control the output signals along with the irregular signals. This paper suggests a method to change the level of the voice information adapting to the surround noise in the white noise environment. The surround noise level is measured by subtracting the stored output voice signal from the voice signal degraded by the noise. The noise is used to estimation of SNR. And, the method to change the output level of voice signal adapting to the noise level. The suggested adaptive voice information system has the advantage to improve listeners' speech perception and to use amplifier's energy effectively.

In order to obtain the fundamental data on the auditory thresholds of fishes for catching method using low frequency sound, the auditory thresholds of coralfish Chromis notatus were measured in the presence of masking noise in the spectrum level range of 73~83dB re l$\mu$Pa/√Hz by heartbeat conditioning technique using pure tones coupled with a delayed electric shock. Critical ratios were about 23~41dB at measurement frequency, The critical ratio increased almost linearly with increasing frequency from 500Hz. The noise spectrum level at the start of masking was about 60~65dB. This suggests that hearing of coralfish is masked in the natural environment with the noise spectrum level above 60dB. The sound pressure level of which the signal sound of 300Hz is recognized by coralfish under the ambient noise is above 88dB and the critical ratio of them is above 23dB. The hearing index of coralfish with ambient noise was 81.
