In this paper, we propose the measurement techniques of mixed waveform. Mixed waveform has phase-continuous periodic waveform with fixed frequency signal and Linear Frequency Modulation(LFM) signal. This waveform is generated from a compact radar transmitter with frequency synthesizer and high power amplifier. Frequency synthesizer generates various signal waveform with continuos phase and high power amplifier amplify transmitting signal. First, we describe a compact radar transmitter with the phase-continuos signal and then verify the distortion characteristic of pulse compression by the mismatch of LFM waveform. Second, we describe three kinds of measurement techniques for measuring LFM waveform. These techniques include methods using signal analyzer, signal source analyzer and new methods using RF mixer and phase shifter. Finally, we verify the accuracy of the measurement technique from the pulse compression result of receiving signal.

Most waveform coding techniques attempt to reduce redundancy of speech signal while preserving the shape of the waveform. In speech synthesis, wavefrom coding methods are used to the synthesis by rule for high quality speech. However, it is difficult to apply the waveform coding to the synthesis by rule because the parameters of the wavefrom coding cannot be classified as either the excitation or the vocal tract parameters. The proposed method shows little spectrum distortion of 2.7% or less for 50% pitch changes. It also achieves smooth connection of wavefrom magnitudes among the frames by compensating the phase in time domain.

An architecture of direct digital frequency synthesizers (DDFS) is studied in this paper The Direct digital frequency synthesizers (DDFS) provide fast frequency switching with high spectral purity and are widely used in modern spread spectrum wireless communication systems. ROM-based DDFS uses a ROM lookup table to store the amplitude of a sine wave. In this paper, we suggest three new techniques to reduce the ROM size. One new technique uses more number of hierarchical levels in ROM structures. Another techniques use simple interpolation techniques combined with hierarchical ROM structures. A 12 bit sine wave is generated by using these techniques. Experimental results show that the new proposed techniques can reduce the required ROM size by up to 24%, when compared to that of a resent method[1].

It is very important to design of QAM modulator of high spectral efficiency for high speed data transmission. In this paper, typical 16-QAM modulator is designed by modification design of DDFS(direct digital frequency synthesizer). DDFS generates sinusoidal waveform digitally to the frequency setting word. Phase modulation is accuratly made by control of a generated phase increment value and amplitude modulation is accomplished in the D/A converter output by control of amplitude level. For the suppression of harmonics and glitch, dual-structured DDFS is studied to improve the spurious characteristics. P-Spice is used for design and simulation in mixed mode. Also we can get the satisfactory results of designed 16-QAM modulator from the constellation output.

This paper presents the methods that design the Wavelet-based pitch detector for 2,4 kbps Harmonic-CELP Coder, and that achieve the effective waveform interpolation by decision window shape of the transition region, Waveform interpolation coder operates by encoding one pitch-period-sized segment, a prototype segment, of speech for each frame, generate the smooth waveform interpolation between the prototype segments for voiced frame, But, harmonic synthesis of the prototype waveforms between previous frame and current frame occur not only waveform errors but also discontinuity at frame boundary on that case of pitch halving or doubling, In addtion, in transition region since waveform interpolation coder synthesizes the excitation waveform by using overlap-add with triangularity window, therefore, Harmonic-CELP fail to model the instantaneous increasing speech and synthesis waveform linearly increases, First of all, in order to detect the precise pitch period, we use the hybrid 1st pitch detector, and increse the precision by using 2nd ACF-pitch detector, Next, in order to modify excitation window, we detect the onset, offset of frame by GCI, As the result, pitch doubling is removed and pitch error rate is decreased 5.4% in comparison with ACF, and is decreased 2,66% in comparison with wavelet detector, MOS test improve 0.13 at transition region.

Recently portable terminal is received attention by wireless networks and mass capacity ROM. In this result, TTS(Text to Speech) system is inserted to portable terminal. Nevertheless high quality synthesis is difficult in portable terminal, users need high quality synthesis. In this paper, we proposed Distributed TTS (DTTS) that was composed of server and terminal. The DTTS on corpus based speech synthesis can be high quality synthesis. Synthesis system in server that generate optimized speech concatenation information after database search and transmit terminal. Synthesis system in terminal make high quality speech synthesis as low computation using transmitted speech concatenation information from server. The proposed method that can be reducing complexity, smaller power consumption and efficient maintenance.

This paper discussed the Multi-PAM inverter for static power supply design. The controller part composed of one-chip microcomputer obtained control pattern simply. The configuration of termination part was composed of double bridge inverter and three-phase, three-winding transformer. The output waveforms using a controller and transformers synthesized the multi-PAM wave form by a voltage level of 22 steps per one-cycle. The output waveforms using the Low Pass Filter approximated to the sine wave.

음성 합성이란 기계적인 장치나 전지회로 또는 컴퓨터 모의를 이용하여 자동으로 음성파형을 생성해 내는 것으로 정의한다. 음성 합성에 대한 연구는 다른 음성에 관련된 기술들보다 가장 먼저 연구된 기술이다. 음성 합성기는 PC의 보급이 확대되고 통신 시장이 컴짐에 따라 그 응용 분야가 점차 확대되어 가고 다양한 방식의 음성 합성 기법에 관한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 일반적으로 자연스러운 대화를 할 때나 글을 읽을 때의 음성에는 퍼지, 지속시간, 에너지 등의 운율 정보가 포함되어 있다. 따라서, 문장을 합성하는 경우 운율정보를 합성음에 반영하면 보다 명확한 의미 전달과 다양한 발성변환이 가능해 진다. 본 논문에서는 시간영역에서 PSOLA 합성방식에 의한 피치 변경과 지속시간 변경을 이용하여 다양한 발성변환에 따른 다중음성 합성기를 구현하였다.

It has been generally used for PLL(Phase Locked Loop) to be synthesized randomly chosen frequency state, but the PLL locking time was inevitable element. A direct digital synthesizer. Which makes output frequency directly in sine wave by a phase accumulating method, could be leiminate the defect, although a phase distortion in frequency spectrum. In order to improve this disadvantage, the phase accumulating method is reconsidered in the side of he output wave formula expression. A new mechanism is proposed, and it is constructed by a most suitable logic elements. The spectrum of synthesized sine waveform is simulated and compared with a measured value, and it’s the coherence frequency hoppong state with the PN(Pseudo Noise) code sequence is confirmed. In this results, the power levels of phase distortion harmonics are decreased to 10~25dB and bandwidths are increased to 420kHz.
