This paper tests whether frication duration plays an important role in perceiving fricatives and affricates. In other words, whether the frication duration is an acoustic cue for distinguishing fricatives from affricates. For this purpose two types of experiments are carried out. In the first experiment two sets of stimuli are created by decreasing the frication duration of fricatives by 10ms, and in the second experiment two steps of stimuli are created by increasing the frication duration of affricates by 10 ms. The results of the present study show that frication duration is the primary acoustic cue in perceiving fricative/affricate distinction in Korean. In addition, the amplitude rise time and burst information appear to play secondary roles in perceiving the distinction by a series of perception tests.

This paper described the positioning algorithm of partial discharge in insulation oil by acoustic method for the application of an on-line diagnosis in oil-immersed transformers. In the experiment, five AE sensors having the resonant frequency of 150 kHz were used, and a signal conditioner was fabricated. A needle-plane electrode system which is composed of a needle with a curvature radius of $10{\mu}m$ and a plane electrode with a diameter of 60 mm was installed to simulate partial discharges in insulation oil. From the time difference of arrival (TOA) of acoustic signal, we calculated the location of partial discharge in insulation oil. In the experiment, an algorithm of positioning of PD occurrence by the time difference of arrival was proposed. From the experimental results, the positioning error of PD calculated by three AE sensors was within 4%.

This study aimed to evaluate the room acoustical performances of multi-purpose halls, surveying the architectural features and analysing the acoustical characteristics by measurements. In addition, adjectives appropriate for the evaluation of the room acoustical performance in multi-purpose halls were determined through the method of questionnaire survey and subjective evaluation through psycho-acoustic experiment. The results from the experiment were analysed by the correlation analysis and the factor analysis, consequently useful adjectives for the evaluation of acoustical performances in multi-purpose halls were determined depending on the types of performance.

본 논문에서는 음향현미경의 V(z)곡선을 해석하고 실험결과와 비교 고찰하였으며 V(z)곡선과 재료의 탄성 특성사이의 관계를 연구분석하였다. V(z)곡선의 이론적인 해석은 angular spectrum과 ray optics 이론을 사용하였고 실험은 동작주파수가 3MHz인 음향현미경을 구성하여 행하였다. 실험결과 V(z)곡선은 재료마다 고유의 형태를 나타내며 V(z) 곡선에서 극대치 사이의 간격은 재료에서 Rayleigh 파의 음향속도를 산출하는 데 이용될 수 있음을 보였다.

This study aimed to show that Selkirk's concept of resyllabification offers a better analysis than Kahn's ambisyllabification to account for phonetic resyllabification. We conducted two production experiments to investigate the acoustic characteristics of the English /s/ in real words and nonce words. Ten English native speakers and six English native speakers participated in experiment 1 and experiment 2, respectively. Three acoustic cues - frication duration, center of gravity and aspiration duration of word-medial /s/ - were measured. We found that these three cues of the word-medial /s/ were realized significantly differently depending on the stresshood and openness of the preceding syllable. We preferred Selkirk's resyllabification to Kahn's ambisyllabification to explain this result because the word-medial and intervocalic /s/ behaved as the coda (as opposed to the onset) when the preceding syllable was stressed and open. The result thus suggested that two conditions must be met for the resyllabification rule to apply in English: a word-medial consonant is resyllabified only when its preceding syllable is stressed and open.

Assessment and management of fisheries abundance in fresh water like a river or a lake is very important to maintain fisheries itself as well as tourist industry even if their scale is not much large. The species for catch in fresh water are mainly a mandarin fish, a carp, an eel, and others. Because oriental river prawn is a main prey of these species and the change in its abundance is directly related to their abundance change in fresh water, information on the abundance and distribution of the species are necessary. Hydroacoustic survey is known to one of the efficient method among several methodology. Information on acoustic target strength is key parameter to estimate abundance for acoustic survey. In this study, measurements on oriental river prawn, Macrobrachium koreana, were conducted for two high frequencies(200kHz and 420kHz) with tilt angle using automatic rotating system. The results of acoustic target strength obtained from the experiment were compared with those of acoustic scattering model, Distorted Wave Born Approximation(DWBA) model. For 200kHz, the result of acoustic target strength experiments was expressed in terms of the averaged target strength dependence on the body langth(BL, cm) as a following relationship; < $TS_{200kHz}$ > = 45.9log(BL) - 107.4. These results provide basic information for studying acoustic target strength and conducting acoustic survey of oriental river prawn.

Nowadays, it is required for naval ships to estimate 3D underwater radiated noise pattern in all direction at peak frequencies of hull vibration for the reduction of being detected and doing the effective operation. For this purpose, the numerical method has to be developed to calculate 3D underwater radiated noise pattern with experimental data. It is very difficult to obtain the experimental data for the real ship. Alternative to get the experimental results is to use NAH(near-field acoustic holography) in acoustic tank with experimental model. Application of NAH in acoustic tank for the experimental model needs some investigation of reflection wave from the wall of the acoustic tank and unmeasured zone of the experimental model due to the supporting structure for it. In this study, the effect of reflection wave in the acoustic tank and unmeasured area of the experimental model when using the NAH was investigated with experiment and numerical model. From these, it is known for the error due to reflection wave can be reduced when the distance between the measurement plane and source is being shorten. Also, unmeasured area of the experimental model gives rise to some error in the estimation of the far-field acoustic pressure.

Multiuser communication has been an important research area of underwater acoustic communications and networking. This paper studies the use of adaptive orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) in a downlink scenario, where a central node sends data to multiple distributed nodes simultaneously. In practical implementations, the instantaneous channel state information (CSI) cannot be perfectly known by the central node in time-varying underwater acoustic (UWA) channels, due to the long propagation delays resulting from the low sound speed. In this paper, we explore the CSI feedback for resource allocation. An adaptive power-bit loading algorithm is presented, which assigns subcarriers to different users and allocates power and bits to each subcarrier, aiming to minimize the bit error rate (BER) under power and throughput constraints. Simulation results show considerable performance gains due to adaptive subcarrier allocation and further improvement through power and bit loading, as compared to the non-adaptive interleave subcarrier allocation scheme. In a lake experiment, channel feedback reduction is implemented through subcarrier clustering and uniform quantization. Although the performance gains are not as large as expected, experiment results confirm that adaptive subcarrier allocation schemes based on delayed channel feedback or long term statistics outperform the interleave subcarrier allocation scheme.

수중음향통신 채널은 해수면의 시변동성, 해저지형, 음속 분포 및 송수신단 사이의 기하학적인 구조 등에 따라 매우 복잡한 형태의 채널 특성을 나타낸다. 특히, 바람과 해류에 의한 시변동성과 도플러 효과를 갖는다. 이러한 수중음향통신 환경에서 전송 효율을 높이기 위해서는 변화하는 채널의 상태를 파악하고 통신기법에 적용시켜야 한다. 이 논문에서는 채널 시변동 매개변수 가운데 도플러 주파수 추정을 위하여 모호 함수와 자기상관 기법을 적용한 프레임 재귀 변복조 방식을 제안하고, 모의실험과 실제 남해에서의 해상실험을 통해 성능을 확인하였다. 해상실험 결과 채널 부호화 기법을 적용하지 않은 경우, 기존의 방법에 비해 제안한 방법의 비트 오류율이 약 32% 향상되었다.
