본 워터마크를 삽입 할 수 있는 임베디드 시스템을 구현 하였다. 워터마크 삽입을 위해 DWT와 Data Matrix가 사용되었다. DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform)는 주파수 공간에서 워터마크를 삽입하기 위해 사용되었고, Data Matrix는 워터마크로 사용되었다. 데이터 매트릭스는 미국의 Data Matrix사가 만든 이차원 바코드로 오류검출 및 복원 알고리즘을 가지고 있어 작은 에러는 복원이 가능하다. 시스템으로는 PDA를 사용하였고, 틀로는 EVC를 사용하였다. 삽입 알고리즘은 다음과 같다. DWT를 한 경우 4개의 서브밴드로 나누어지며, 그 중 cV(horizontal detail)와 cH(vertical detail)를 선택하여 4*4블록 단위로 나눈다. 나누어진 블록과 대응하는 워터마크의 픽셀 값에 의해 계수에 일정 값(가중치)을 더하거나 때주어 워터마크를 삽입한다. 추출 알고리즘은 역으로 이루어진다. 성능평가는 PDA에서 워터마크 삽입 알고리즘을 통하여 워터마크를 삽입, 추출된 영상을 가지고 Matlap을 이용하여 평가하였다.

최근 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 시대로 진입하면서 센서 네트워크에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있다. 그 중에서 위치인식을 이용한 다양한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 주파수의 회절 및 반사, 감쇄 현상을 최소화 하기 위해 모바일 노드가 속해 있는 클러스터부터 수신된 RSSI 값을 사용하여 위치 정보를 추출한다. 또한 가까운 라우터 노드에 더 높은 가중치를 주어 수신한 라우터노드들의 무게 중심을 노드의 위치로 판단하는 방법을 통하여 위치 정보를 추출하는 방법을 제안한다.

OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system is robust to frequency selective fading and narrowband interference in high-speed data communications. However, an OPDM signal consists of a number of independently modulated subcarriers and the superposition of these subcarriers causes a problem that can give a large PARR(Peak-to-Average Power Ratio). PTS(Partial Transmit Sequence) scheme can reduce the PAPR by dividing OFDM signal into subblocks and then multiplying the phase weighting factors to each subblocks, but computational complexity for selecting of phase weighting factors increases exponentially with the number of subblocks. Therefore, in this paper, MG-PSO(Modified Greedy algorithm-Particle Swarm Optimization) algorithm that combines modified greedy algorithm and PSO(Particle Swarm Optimization) algorithm is proposed to use for the phase control method in PTS scheme. This method can solve the computational complexity and guarantee to reduce PAPR. We analyzed the performance of the PAPR reduction when we applied the proposed method to telecommunication systems.

Full-image guided filter reflects all pixels of image in filtering by using weight propagation and two-pass model, whereas the existing guide filter is processed based on the kernel window. Therefore the computational complexity can be improved while maintaining characteristics of guide filter, such as edge-preserving, smoothing, and so on. In this paper, we propose an efficient VLSI architecture for the full-image guided filter by analyzing the data dependency, the data frequency and the PSNR analysis of the image in order to achieve enough speed for various applications such as stereo vision, real-time systems, etc. In addition, the proposed efficient scheduling enables the realtime process by minimizing the idle period in weight computation. The proposed VLSI architecture shows 214MHz of maximum operating frequency (image size: 384*288, 965 fps) and 76K of gates (internal memory excluded).

We describe word boundary detection that extracts the boundary between speech and non-speech. The proposed method uses two features. One is the normalized root mean square of speech signal, which is insensitive to white noises and represents temporal information. The other is the normalized met-frequency band energy of voice signal, which is frequency information of the signal. Our method detects word boundaries using a recurrent fuzzy associative memory(RFAM) that extends FAM by adding recurrent nodes. Hebbian learning method is employed to establish the degree of association between an input and output. An error back-propagation algorithm is used for teaming the weights between the consequent layer and the recurrent layer. To confirm the effectiveness, we applied the suggested system to voice data obtained from KAIST.

The feature extraction mechanism of the CASA(Computational Auditory Scene Analysis) system uses time continuity and frequency channel similarity to compose a correlogram of auditory elements. In segmentation, we compose a binary mask by using cross-correlation function, mask 1(speech) has the same periodicity and synchronization. However, when there is delay between autocorrelation signals with the same periodicity, it is determined as a speech, which is considered to be a drawback. In this paper, we proposed an algorithm to improve discrimination of channel similarity using Weighted Cross-correlation in segmentation. We conducted experiments to evaluate the speech segregation performance of the CASA system in background noise(siren, machine, white, car, crowd) environments by changing SNR 5dB and 0dB. In this paper, we compared the proposed algorithm to the conventional algorithm. The performance of the proposed algorithm has been improved as following: improvement of 2.75dB at SNR 5dB and 4.84dB at SNR 0dB for background noise environment.

In this paper, the beamforming and user scheduling scheme for device-to-device (D2D) underlaying celullar networks with partial channel state information is investigated. In the proposed scheme, cellular users whose channels are nearly orthogonal to the channel between base station and D2D receiver are selected for unitary beamforming so as to minimize the interference to the D2D receiver. The interference caused by underlaying D2D communication can be minimized by reducing the D2D transmitter's transmission power. To enhance the cellular users' throughput further, we also investigate codebook generation method in which each code vector belongs to multiple unitary code matrices. From simulation results, we show that the proposed beamforming and user scheduling scheme mitigates D2D interference to the cellular networks and the codebook generation method improves cellular users' throughput.

In this thesis, an enhanced method for the feature extraction of vocal source signals and score combination using an MCE-Based weight estimation of the score of multiple feature vectors are proposed for the performance improvement of speaker recognition systems. The proposed feature vector is composed of perceptual linear predictive cepstral coefficients, skewness, and kurtosis extracted with lowpass filtered glottal flow signals to eliminate the flat spectrum region, which is a meaningless information section. The proposed feature was used to improve the conventional speaker recognition system utilizing the mel-frequency cepstral coefficients and the perceptual linear predictive cepstral coefficients extracted with the speech signals and Gaussian mixture models. In addition, to increase the reliability of the estimated scores, instead of estimating the weight using the probability distribution of the convectional score, the scores evaluated by the conventional vocal tract, and the proposed feature are fused by the MCE-Based score combination method to find the optimal speaker. The experimental results showed that the proposed feature vectors contained valid information to recognize the speaker. In addition, when speaker recognition is performed by combining the MCE-based multiple feature parameter scores, the recognition system outperformed the conventional one, particularly in low Gaussian mixture cases.

OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system is robust to frequency selective fading and narrowband interference in high-speed data communications. However, an OFDM signal consists of a number of independently modulated subcarriers and the superposition of these subcarriers causes a problem that can give a large PAPR(Peak-to-Average Power Ratio). Phase rotation method can reduce the PAPR without nonlinear distortion by multiplying phase weighting factors. But computational complexity of searching phase weighting factors is increased exponentially with the number of subblocks and considered phase factor. Therefore, a new method, which can reduce computational complexity and detect phase weighting factors efficiently, should be developed. In this paper, a modeling process is introduced, which apply metaheuristic algerian in phase rotation method and optimize in PTS (Particle Swarm Optimization) scheme. Proposed algorithm can solve the computational complexity and guarantee to reduce PAPR We analyzed the efficiency of the PAPR reduction through a simulation when we applied the proposed method to telecommunication systems.
