Acoustic OFDM is used for audible frequency band acoustic communication which employs loudspeaker as transmitter and microphone as the receiver antenna. Since acoustic OFDM can transmit about 1 kbps using 1600 Hz band. acoustic OFDM signal is inserted into the audio signal like music or speech, However. audio quality deteriorates definitely during the inserting process. This paper introduces a reason for audio quality deterioration and discuss how to reduce this phenomenon.

본 논문에서는 음향센서를 기반으로 한 지하시설물 화재 위험감지 방법을 제안하였다. 음향센서는 진동이나 광센서처럼 접촉식이 아니기 때문에 결로가 발생하고 있는 취약구간에 설치하여 보다 효율적으로 활용이 가능하고 지하시설물 내부에 설치된 기기나 장비들과 상호작용하거나 간섭하지 않기 때문에 안전하게 관리가 가능하다. 이러한 특징으로 지하 시설물에서 내 통행이 불편하여 관리하기 힘든 구간이나 결로가 많아 화재안전에 주의가 필요한 곳에 설치하여 전기스파크 발생 감지를통해 재난이 발생하기 이전 화재위험을 감지하는 방법론 중 하나가 될 수 있다. 제안하는 방법은 음향 센서를 통해 지하공동구 안에서 발생하는 소리들을 수집하고 일정한 길이의 시간 단위 프레임들로 분할한 후 분석하여 전기스파크의 특징 벡터를 도출한다. 전기스파크 감지 모델로는 전기스파크 신호의 지역적 특성을 포착할 수 있도록 2D-CNN 구조를 사용하며 모델에서 출력된 전기 스파크 발생 예측확률을 분할된 단위 프레임 따라 계산하여 융합한다. 이로 인해 높은 정확도의 전기스파크 감지 정밀도를 얻을 수 있으며, 이는 전기 스파크에 의한 화재 이벤트 감지 있어서 효과적인 센싱 기술임을 알 수 있다.

A high-intensity ultrasound wave generates acoustic streaming and acoustic radiation forces when propagating through a medium. An acoustic radiation force generated in a three-dimensional space can produce a solid tactile sensation, delivering spatial information directly to the human skin. We placed 154 ultrasound transmit elements with a frequency of 40 kHz on a concave circular dish, and generated an acoustic radiation force at the focal point by transmitting the ultrasound wave. To feel the tactile sensation better, the transmit elements were excited by sine waves whose amplitude was modulated by a 60 Hz square wave. As an application of ultrasonic tactile sensing, a region where tactile sense is formed in the air is used as an indicator for the position of the hand. We confirmed the utility of ultrasonic tactile feedback by implementing a system that provides the number of fingers to a machine by receiving the shape of the hand at the focal point where the tactile sense is detected.

Interfacial durability and electrical properties of CNT, ITO or xGnP coated PVDF nanocomposites were investigated for acoustic actuator applications. The xGnP coated PVDF nanocomposite exhibited better electrical conductivity than CNT and ITO case due to the unique electrical property of xGnP, and this nanocomposite also showed good sound characteristics. Interfacial adhesion durability between either neat CNT or plasma treated CNT and plasma treated PVDF were measured by static contact angle, surface energy, work of adhesion, and spreading coefficient tests. The optimum acoustic actuation performance of xGnP coated PVDF nanocomposite was measured using sound level meter with changing radius of curvature and coating conditions. As compared to CNT and ITO, the xGnP was known as more appropriate acoustic actuator due to the characteristic electrical property. It is the most appropriate condition when the radius of curvature is 15 degree. Although sound characteristics were different with various coating thicknesses, it is possible to manufacture transparent actuator with good sound quality.

In this paper, objectively quantified consonance of complex sound is proposed as a new psychoacoustical parameter. Proposing algorithm quantifies consonance of complex sound after applying psycho acoustical models which are parts of human perception such as masking effect, equal loudness contour, and critical band. To verify proposing algorithm, experiments with 10 car horn signals which have different complex sound were performed. The experiments show cross correlation of 0.95 between objectively quantified consonance by proposing algorithm and subjectively assessed consonance by listening tests. Considering the fact that there are few psychoacoustical parameter except Zwicker parameter, proposing algorithm will help to quantify psychoacoustical effect of complex sounds objectively.

In airport terminal, aural information is transmitted during 24 hours a day including announcement, background music and emergency control. So, clear sound is mostly necessary to transmitted to the passengers in airports. IIA (Incheon International Airport) is one of the largest airports accommodating 45 million people a year which have been built since 2001. There are currently three passenger terminals including Terminal 1 & 2, and boarding concourse. The $2^{nd}$ passenger terminal is under construction to expand the spaces which will be finished in 2020. The present work aims to explain the design principles of both architectural acoustics and electo-acoustics which have been applied to all the terminal buildings in IIA including ticketing counter, great hall, departure concourse and transportation center. Also, the acoustical performances of those spaces were examined. As a result, acoustic standards for airport were suggested. Architectural concepts for designing ceiling spaces and sound absorption treatments were suggested. Also, electro-acoustic design principles were commented.

음향공명 발생원인 가스가 들어있는 방전관내에 방전전류가 흐르면 전력에너지가 발생하여 열을 발생 시키고 이 열은 방전관내의 압력변화를 가져온다. 이 압력변화는 방전관내의 음향변화와 같다. 주기적인 압력변화가 내벽에 반사되어 정재파가 발생되는 현상이 방정관의 고유진동수이며 이 고유진동수와 전원주파수가 일치될 때 음향공명현상이 일어난다.

In this paper, a Negative Impedance Converter (NIC) circuit was employed for the electro-mechanical characteristic control of a thickness mode piezoelectric vibrator. Two circular plane piezoelectric vibrators were bonded together and the NIC circuit was connected to one of the vibrators. The theoretical and experimental analysis of the characteristics shown that the quality factor and the electro-acoustic efficiency of the vibrator with the NIC circuit could be improved by 20 times and 2.5 times, respectively.
