본 논문에서는 충격성 잡음에 강인하기 위한 시변 주파수 추정 기법을 제안하였다 충격성 잡음에 강인하기 위해서는 충격성 잡음에 의한 추정 변수의 동요를 제한하고 추정된 오차가 향후 추정시 영향을 미치는 오차의 전파현상을 제한하여야 한다. 충격성 잡음에 의한 추정오차의 전파를 제한하기 위해서는 망각인자의 도입이 필요함을 증명하였고 보다 효과적으로 사용하기 위해서 가변 망각인자를 도입하였다. 가변 망각인자의 도입으로 충격성 잡음에 의한 오차의 전파를 선택적으로 제한할 수 있으며 충격성 잡음에 의한 추정계수의 변동은 영향함수 측면에서 Huber함수를 이용하여 제한하였다. 제안된 알고리듬은 Huber함수와 가변망각인자의 도입으로 충격성 잡음에 의해 생기는 오차의 크기와 오차의 영향이 전파되는 것을 적응적으로 제한하기 때문에 모의실험을 통해 기존의 칼만 알고리듬보다 나은 성능을 보임을 알 수 있었다.

The performance of a system can be affected by the variance of noise factors, which arise owing to uncertainties of the material properties and environmental factors acting on the system. For robust design optimization of the system performance, it is necessary to minimize the effect of the variance of the noise factors that are impossible to control. However, present robust design techniques consider the variation of design factors, and not the noise factors, as being important. Furthermore, it is necessary to assume a normal distribution; however, a normal distribution is often not suitable to estimate the variations. In this study, a robust design technique is proposed to consider the variation of noise factors that are estimated as non-normal distributions in a real experiment. As an example of an engineering problem, a deep-sea manganese nodule miner tracked vehicle is used to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method.

The Optimal results of Kalman Filtering on the Inverted Pendulum System requires an effective factor such as the noise covariance matrix Q, the measurement noise covariance matrix R and the initial error covariance matrix $P_0$. We present a special case where the optimality of the filter is not destroyed and not sensitive to scaling of these covariance matrix because these factors are unknown or are known only approximately in the practical situation. Moreover, the error covariance matrices issued by this method predict errors in the state estimate consistent with the scaled covariance matrices and not the issued state estimates. Various results using the scalar gain $\delta$ are derived to described the relations among the three covariance matrices, Kalman Gain and the error covariance matrices. This paper is described as follows: Section III a brief overview of the Inverted Pendulum system. Section IV deals with the mathematical dynamic model of the system used for the computer simulation. Section V presents a various simulation results using the scalar gain.

In this paper, robust structural design of the PEMFC stack gasket is pursued with Taguchi method by considering the noise factor in stack assembly. The study of noise problem in stacking is required to secure the safety and performance improvement of PEMFC stack. The design parameters in the Taguchi method are selected so that the structural responses are insensitive to the noise factors. In the gasket analysis, a Mooney-Rivlin strain energy function is used to consider hyperelasticity between load and displacement. By uni-axial and equi-biaxial tension tests of the gasket, the material properties are determined for the use in robust design of PEMFC gasket. The robust design of the PEMFC stack may provide structural reliability.

Powerline interference in bioelectric recordings is a common source of noise. IEF(Incremental Estimation Filter) has been used to eliminate powerline interferences in biosignals, especially in ECG(Electrocadiogram) signals. The constant incremental factor in the IEF filter, which affects the performance of noise rejection, is usually determined empirically or experimentally based on the input signals. This paper presents the design of neural network based IEF filter for time-varying control of the incremental factor. The proposed IEF filter is evaluated by applying to artificial signals as well as ECG signals of MIT-BIH database. For the relative comparison of noise-rejection performance, it is compared with adaptive noise canceler and conventional IEF filter. Simulation results show that the neural network based IEF filter outperforms these adaptive filters with respect to convergence speed and noise rejection is specific frequencies.

Taguchi has used the signal-to-noise ratio (SN) to achieve the appropriate set of operating conditions where variability around target is low in the Taguchi parameter design. Many Statisticians criticize the Taguchi techniques of analysis, particularly those based on the SN. Moreover, there are difficulties in practical application, such as complexity and nonlinear relationships among quality characteristics and design (control) factors, and interactions occurred among control factors. Neural networks have a learning capability and model free characteristics. There characteristics support neural networks as a competitive tool in processing multivariable input-output implementation. In this paper we propose a substantially simpler optimization procedure for parameter design using neural network without resorting to SN. An example is illustrated to compare the difference between the Taguchi method and neural network method.

In this paper, we propose a new approach to reduce the audible noise generated by TFT-LCD module in mobile applications. We also analyzed impact factors which effect on the audible noise. It is expected that this noise source comes from various impact factors such as vibration of flexible printed-circuit board (FPCB) and LCD panel, and static electricity charged in window and back-light unit. Windowless type and window type models are evaluated to analyze noise level due to the static electricity charged in window. To obtain reliable and reproducible data, we constructed controllable test jig and measurement set-up.

본 논문에서는 ToF(Time-of-Flight) 카메라의 거리 잡음을 제거하는 방법으로 거리와 진폭에 따른 거리 잡음 모델링을 이용한 적응적인 SUSAN(Smallest Univalue Segment Assimilating Nucleus) 필터를 제안한다. ToF 카메라의 거리 잡음 제거를 위해서 기존에 제안된 여러 가지 방법들은 거리 잡음의 특성을 고려하지 않거나 진폭에 따른 거리 잡음의 특성만을 고려하였다. 하지만 실제 ToF 카메라의 거리 영상에 포함되는 거리 잡음은 진폭과 거리에 따라서 변화하기 때문에 거리와 진폭을 모두 고려한 거리 잡음 모델링이 필요하다. 따라서 제안하는 방법은 우선 거리와 진폭의 변화에 따른 ToF 카메라의 거리 잡음 특성을 모델링 한다. 이후 제안하는 방법은 생성된 거리 잡음 모델에 의해 인자가 결정되는 적응적 SUSAN 필터를 이용하여 ToF 카메라의 거리 영상의 잡음을 제거한다. 실험 결과 제안하는 방법은 기존의 ToF 거리 영상의 거리 잡음제거 방법에 비해 보다 효과적으로 거리 영상의 잡음을 제거하면서 디테일을 잘 보존하였다.

In this paper, performance of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system in an impulsive noise environment is analyzed. Here, it is verified that performance of the OFDM system with window nonlinearity, which is one of the impulsive noise mitigation algorithms, is dependent on the over-sampling rate and the size of window. With respect to the variation of those parameters, we also provide an appropriate region of threshold values that control amplitudes of the sampled waveform of received signals. As a result, a new combination of parameters which improves error performance of OFDM system in an impulsive noise environment as compared to the previously reported parameters is presented.
