This paper analyses the performance of either the minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) or the recursive least square (RLS) beamformer structured on the systolic array. Provided that the snapshot vector including the desired user's signal and the interferences with the noise is received at the array antenna. In order to improve the quality of received signal, MVDR or RLS algorithm can be utilized to update the beamformer weights recursively. Furthermore to increase the channel capacity, by the usage of the above schemes, the effect of the spatial filtering can be obtained which constructively combining multipath components corresponding to the desired user whereas the multiple access interferences (MAI) is nulled out on spatial domain. This paper introduces the MVDR and RLS beamformer structured on systolic array conducting the spatial filtering, and its performance under the multipath fading channel in the presence of multiple access interferences will be analyzed. To show the superior spatial filtering performances of the proposed scheme employing the systolic way structured beamformer, the computer simulations are carried out. And the validity of practical deployment of the proposed scheme will be confirmed throughout showing the BER behaviors and the beampatterns.

In this paper, the automatic determination algorithm of strike and dip of a line source using gravity gradient on a single profile is proposed. In general, the gravity gradient tensor due to a line source has only two independent components because of its 2-Dimensional (2-D) characteristics. However, if the line source has the strike and dip regarding the observation profile, it comes to have five independent components. The proposed algorithm of the determination both strike and dip is based on the rotational transform that converts full gravity gradient tensor to reduced 2-D gravity gradient tensor. The least-square method is applied in order to find optimum rotational angles that make one of the row components minimalized simultaneously. The two synthetic cases of a line source are represented; one has strike only and the other has both strike and dip. This study finds that the automatic determination method using gravity gradient tensor can find directions of a line source in each case.

To do fuzzy modelling of a nonlinear process needs to analyze the characteristics of input-output of fuzzy inference systems according to the division of entire input spaces and the fuzzy reasoning methods. For this, fuzzy model is expressed by identifying the structure and parameters of the system by means of input variables, fuzzy partition of input spaces, and consequence polynomial functions. In the premise part of the fuzzy rules Min-Max method using the minimum and maximum values of input data set and C-Means clustering algorithm forming input data into the clusters are used for identification of fuzzy model and membership functions are used as a series of triangular, gaussian-like, trapezoid-type membership functions. In the consequence part of the fuzzy rules fuzzy reasoning is conducted by two types of inferences such as simplified and linear inference. The identification of the consequence parameters, namely polynomial coefficients, of each rule are carried out by the standard least square method. And lastly, using gas furnace process which is widely used in nonlinear process we evaluate the performance and the system characteristics.

To accurately predict the motion of a submergible, the nonlinear structure of dynamic model should be selected and corresponding parameters should be estimated using model test. Providing the model structure, only the values of parameters are unknown and the estimation can thus be formulated as a standard least square problem. Unfortunately, the nonlinear model structure of submersibles is rarely known a prior and method of model structure determination from measurement data of model test should be developed and included as a vital part of the estimation procedure. In this study, the well-known linear least square algorithm for the analysis of model tests and a way to measure the goodness are reviewed, and the identification algorithm based on an orthogonal decomposition method of Gram-Schmidt is extended to combine structure selection and maneuvering coefficients estimation in a very simple and efficient manner. Finally, the efficiency of this algorithm is verified by using simulation and applying to the analysis of model test of a submerged body. As a result, it was verified that this combined method might be very erective in selecting the structure of dynamic model estimating the maneuvering coefficients from measurement fiat of model test.

As marine accidents happen frequently, it is required to establish a marine traffic monitoring system, which is designed to improve the safety and efficiency of navigation in VTS (Vessel Traffic Service). For this aim, recently, X-band marine radar is used for extracting the sea surface information and, it is necessary to retrieve wave information correctly and provide for the safe and efficient movement of vessel traffic within the VTS area. In this paper, three different current estimation algorithms including the classical least-squares (LS) fitting, a modified iterative least-square fitting routine and a normalized scalar product of variable current velocities are compared with buoy data and then, the iterative least-square method is modified to estimate wave information by improving the initial current velocity. Through several simulations with radar signals, it is shown that the proposed method is effective in retrieving the wave information compared to the conventional methods.

This study deals with a method to localize a noise source occuring in a marine vehicle in a 3D environment. Even when access to the noise source is limited for a marine vehicle, such as a ship or a submarine in operation, the signal received on a hydrophone located elsewhere contains Doppler effected noise by moving relatively. This study suggests noise localization algorithm in 3D based on Doppler effect by moving marine vehicle. Using a known source mounted on the vehicle, the noise source was estimated by reducing the range of Doppler center and closest point of approach via the least square method. The algorithm was verified through various simulations and it was shown that the noise could be localized in 3D based on Doppler effect by employing two fixed hydrophones located at the vehicle's exterior points and a known reference signal generator located somewhere on the vehicle.

In this study, we introduce Radial Basis Function Neural Networks(RBFNNs) classifier using Artificial Bee Colony(ABC) algorithm in order to classify between precipitation event and non-precipitation event from given radar data. Input information data is rebuilt up through feature analysis of meteorological radar data used in Korea Meteorological Administration. In the condition phase of the proposed classifier, the values of fitness are obtained by using Fuzzy C-Mean clustering method, and the coefficients of polynomial function used in the conclusion phase are estimated by least square method. In the aggregation phase, the final output is obtained by using fuzzy inference method. The performance results of the proposed classifier are compared and analyzed by considering both QC(Quality control) data and CZ(corrected reflectivity) data being used in Korea Meteorological Administration.

In conventional structural design, deterministic optimization which satisfies codified constraints is performed to ensure safety and maximize economical efficiency. However, uncertainties are inevitable due to the stochastic nature of structural materials and applied loads. Thus, deterministic optimization without considering these uncertainties could lead to unreliable design. Recently, there has been much research in reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) taking into consideration both the reliability and optimization. RBDO involves the evaluation of probabilistic constraint that can be estimated using the RIA (Reliability Index Approach) and the PMA(Performance Measure Approach). It is generally known that PMA is more stable and efficient than RIA. Despite the significant advancement in PMA, RBDO still requires large computation time for large-scale applications. In this paper, A new reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) method is presented to achieve the more stable and efficient algorithm. The idea of the new method is to integrate a response surface method (RSM) with PMA. For the approximation of a limit state equation, the moving least squares (MLS) method is used. Through a mathematical example and ten-bar truss problem, the proposed method shows better convergence and efficiency than other approaches.

본 논문에서는 자동적인 퍼지 규칙 생성을 위해 퍼지 균등화(Fuzzy Equalization)와 유전알고리즘(Genetic Algorithm)을 이용한 TSK 퍼지 시스템의 구축을 다룬다. Pedrycz에 의해 제안된 퍼지 균등화 방법은 수치적인 데이터로부터 확률분포함수를 구축한 후 전체공간상에서 이들을 적절히 표현할 수 있는 소속함수를 생성한다. 이렇게 구축된 각 입력에 대한 소속함수는 유전알고리즘에 의해 입력공간이 분할되며 결론부 파라미터는 최소자승법에 의해 추정되어 진다. 제안된 방법은 그리드 분할로 인해 규칙의 수가 증가하는 문제를 해결하고 학습데이터와 검증데이터에 의해 타당한 입력공간분할과 퍼지 규칙을 생성할 수 있다. 시뮬레이션의 예로서 Box-Jenkins의 가스로 데이터의 모델링에 적용하여 제안된 방법의 유용성을 알 수 있다.
