This paper proposes a speech enhancement method through the process of combining the gain function with spectrum subtraction method in the two microphone array with close spacing. A speech enhancement method that uses a gain function estimated by the SNR (Signal-to Noise Ratio) based on the multi frequency band coherence function causes the performance degradation in high correlation between input noises of two channels. A new speech enhancement method is proposed where the weighted gain function is used by combining the gain function from the spectral subtraction. The performance evaluation of the proposed method was shown by comparison with PESQ (Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality) value which is an objective quality evaluation test provided by the ITU-T (International Telecommunications Union Telecommunication). In the PESQ tests, the maximum 0.217 of PESQ value is improved in the various background noise environments.

음성 신호에는 언어정보이외에 여러 요인에 의한 정보가 포함되어 있어서, 문자와 일대일로 대응되는 분절을 정확하게 검출하기가 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 선형 예측계수 (LPC) 스펙트럼의 첨두 부분을 강조한 이진 (binary) 스펙트럼을 제안하고, 이를 바탕으로 음의 안정영역과 천이영역을 통합하여 음향특징을 추출하고자 한다. 각 영역의 특징은 이진 스펙트럼을 누적하여 구하며, 통합적인 특징은 각 영역의 특징을 결합한 관계적 특징으로 나타낸다. 제 2 차 포르만트 주파수의 궤적을 관계적 특징으로 하여, 양순 비음과 치조 비음을 구별한 결과, 모음의 문맥과 화자에 비교적 독립적인 인식결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 이진 스펙트럼이 원래의 스펙트럼에 포함된 정보를 유지하는지 검토하기 위해, 같은 거리척도 (distance measure) 에 의해 인식 실험한 결과 이진 스펙트럼의 성능이 오히려 우수하게 나타났으며, 관계적 이진 스펙트럼의 경우 화자에 따른 변화가 더욱 적었다. 음성에 백색 잡음 (Gaussian white noise)을 더하여 잡음음성 (noisy speech) 을 만든 뒤, 같은 방법으로 실험한 결과도 유사한 인식결과를 얻을 수 있어 제안된 이진 스펙트럼의 유효성을 확인하였다.

Since power spectrum has no information about the phase of a signal, the power spectral analysis technique can not be used to interpret the phase coherency of the signal produced by some nonlinear process. In this case, third-order spectrum, the so called bispectrum, is very useful in analyzing such signals. some typical computer simulation results are shown in order to represent the usefulness of the bispectrum, and the bispectra of the measured acoustic signals of three vehicles are shown in order to use to identify the sources of those signals.

We present the double resonance optical pumping(DROP) spectra in the transition 5P$_{3}$2/-4D$_{3}$2/ and 5P$_{3}$2/-4D$_{5}$ 2/ of ($^{87}$ Rb) and the frequency stabilization in the $1.5mutextrm{m}$ region using those spectra. Those spectra have high signal-to-noise ratio and narrow spectral linewidth, which is about 10 MHz. We could account fur the relative intensities of the hyperfine states of those spectra by the spontaneous emission into the other state. When the frequency of the $1.5mutextrm{m}$ laser diode was stabilized to the DROP spectrum, the frequency fluctuation was about 0.2 MHz fDr sampling time of 0.1 s and the Allan deviation(or the square root of the Allan variance) was about 1${\times}$10$^{-11}$ for averaging time of l00s.

This paper investigates the evolution of EM admittance of piezoelectric transducers mounted on a notched beam from wave propagation perspective. A finite element analysis is adopted to obtain numerical solutions for Lamb waves reverberating on the notched beam. The mode-converted Lamb wave signals due to a notch are extracted by using the polarization characteristics of piezoelectric transducers collocated on the beam. Then, a series of temporal spectrums are computed to demonstrate the evolution of EM admittance through fast Fourier transform of the mode-converted Lamb wave signals which are consecutively truncated in the time domain. When truncation time is relatively small, the corresponding temporal spectrum is governed by the characteristics of the input driving frequency. As truncation time becomes large, however, the modal characteristics of the notched beam play a crucial role in the temporal spectrum within the input driving frequency band. This implies that mode-converted Lamb waves reverberating on the beam contributes to the resonance of the beam. The root mean square values are computed for the temporal spectrums in the vicinity of each resonance frequency. The root mean square values increase monotonically with respect to truncation time for any resonance frequencies. Finally the implications of the numerical observation are discussed in the context of damage detection of a beam.

In this study, our purpose is to develop a technique to discriminate artificial explosions from local microearthquakes on the basis of time-frequency domain. To obtain spectral features of artificial explosions and microearthquakes, we used 3-d spectrograms(frequency, time and amplitude) because this is a useful tool to study the frequency content of entire seismic waveforms observed at local and regional distances (e. g., Kim et al., 1994). P and S waves from quarry blasts show that frequency content of dominant amplitude appeared above 10 Hz and Rg phases that are observed at near distance ranges. But P and S waves from microearthquakes have more broad frequency content as well as below 10 Hz. And for discrimination, Pg/Lg spectral ratio is performed below 10 Hz. In order to select time windows we computed group velocity using multiple filter method(MFM) and removed free surface effects from all 3-components data for improving on data quality. Next step, we computed Fast-Fourier transform, and a log average spectral amplitude over seven frequency bands : 0.5 to 3, 2 to 4, 3 to 5, 4 to 6, 5 to 7, 6 to 8 and 8 to 10 Hz. The best separation is observed from 6 to 8 Hz.
