CDMA receiving algorithms, such as single/multi user detector and smart antenna system which have been proposed to suppress ISI and MAI. still suffer from the residual interferences among the output signals. A blind adaptive CMA post-processing technique, which is able to suppress the residual ISI and MAI symbol-by-symbol was proposed. It can be easily applied to any conventional detector at the expense of a small amount of additional computations. In this paper, a solution for the convergence problem of proposed method is proposed and analyzed. Through computer simulations it was shown that the proposed method has stable convergence property and good performance in BER.

Noisy speech recognition is one of most important problems in speech recognition. In this paper, a method which efficiently removes the mixed noise with speech, is proposed. The proposed method is based on the ICA to separate the mixed noise. ICA(Independent component analysis) is a signal processing technique, whose goal is to express a set of random variables as linear combinations of components that are statistically as independent from each other as possible.

This paper proposes a variable step size parameter method in frequency domain ICA (FDICA). The FDICA and the temporal analysis (TA) algorithm are experimented for blind source separation (BSS). This paper will compare the separation qualities of these two algorithms in various reverberation environments. Furthermore, it is shown that the proposed technique has the better separation performance than those of two methods especially in recorded data.

Rotator cuff tear is a common reason for shoulder pain. Although the surgical technique of rotator cuff repair is developing, high retear rate requires additional supplementary methods. Among these supplementary methods, as a kind of biologic augmentation, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been spotlighted and has recently been studied by many researchers. PRP, a concentrate of platelet extract obtained from whole blood, contains numerous growth factors. As this is known to play an important role in the tissue recovery process, it had been used for research in a variety of fields including orthopedics. Use of PRP has been attempted in surgical treatments of rotator cuff tear for better results; however, only a few large-scale research studies on the effect of PRP have been reported. Clinical results of each study are also variable. Therefore research using large-scale randomized, double-blind trials should be conducted in order to prove the application range, safety, and clinical effects of PRP.

멀티미디어의 저작권 보호를 위한 기술로서 워터마킹 기술은 현재 멀티미디어의 여러 분야에서 많이 연구되며 사용되고 있다. 이 기술은 컨텐츠가 질적으로 소비자에게 인식되지 않으며, 그리고 컨텐츠자체에 다양한 정보를 은닉하기 때문에 컨텐츠에 항상 포함되어 있다는 장점이 있다. 현재 MP3등과 같은 압축기술이 발달되어 있기 때문에 네트웍에 의한 데이터 전송성능이 향상되었고, 그러므로 디지털 데이터들이 유통이 활성화되었다. 이것으로 인하여 불법적으로 복제된 다양한 컨텐츠의 유통이 생산자의 이익을 해치고 있다. 디지털 오디오 컨텐츠의 소유권을 위하여, 본 논문에서는 압축에 대한 견고성을 제고하기 위하여 청각시스템의 마스킹 효과를 이용하여 시간영역에서 오디오신호에 특정된 주파수를 가진 워터마크 정보를 삽입하였다. 이 특정된 주파수는 반드시 압축에 살아남는 주파수 대역이어야 하며, 음질을 동시에 고려하여야 한다. 그리고 추출할 때는 FFT변환을 하여 주파수 대역에서 추출한다. 저작권 정보를 쉽게 확인하기 위하여 2진 송상을 워터마크 정보로 삽입하였다.

In this study, transferrin which is an iron-carrying glycoprotein in plasma was evaluted for its iron binding capacities(TIBC), iron solubilizing abilities, and enhancing effect of biological availbability of iron. Results of TIBC showed that 1 mg of transferrin could blind 1.28$\mu\textrm{g}$ of iron indicating that one molecule of transferrin can bind about 2 molecules of iron. Also, solubility of iorn (7.5$\mu\textrm{g}$ Fe/ml) was significantly incresed to 96.0% with addition of transferrin (5mg/ml) .When FeCl3(80$\mu\textrm{g}$ Fe/ml) was injected to iron-deficient rats by intestinal segment in situ technique, 18.4% of injected iron was absorbed wherease 48.49 and 48.76% of injected iron was absorbed with addition of 10 and 20 mg transferrin/ml , respectively.

Sciatic nerve block is frequently used for anesthesia or analgesia during lower leg surgery or chronic lower leg pain syndrome. Recently, a lot of ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve block has been reported because there are several benefits compared to blind technique. We performed ultrasound-guided right sciatic nerve block successfully to the patient who has been suffering from right buttock pain after previous radiation therapy.

A problem of signal transmitted and received in OFDM systems is considered. In particular, an efficient solution to the problem of blind channel estimation based on Maximum Likelihood (ML) principle has been investigated. The paper proposes a new upper-bound cost, used in conjunction with a standard branch and bound integer programming technique for solving the ML problem. The tighter upper-bound cost exploits a finite-alphabet property of the transmitted signal. The proposed upper-bound cost was found to greatly speed up the ML algorithm, thus reducing computational complexity. Experimental results and discussion are included.

This thesis is concerned with the development of useful engineering techniques to detect and analyze nonlinearities in mechanical systems. The methods developed are based on the concepts of higher order spectra, in particular the bispectrum. The study of higher order statistics has been dominated by work on the bispectrum. The bispectrum can be viewed as a decomposition of the third moment(skewness) of a signal over frequency and as such is blind to symmetric nonlinearities. Initially auto higher order spectra are studied in detail with particular attention being paid to normalization method. Traditional method based on the bicoherence are studied. Under certain conditions, notably narrow band signals, the above normalization method is shown to fail and so a new technique based on prewhitening the signal in the time domain is developed.

This paper describes a method for recognition of two-dimensional position of an object by use of aerial ultra-sonic sensor and signal processing technique, which would become a help for blind person or self-mobile robot. First, we have developed a method for measuring the time difference between the transmitted and the received burst wave by use of one ultrasonic transmitter and three receivers. Secondly, a new method is developed for measuring the distance to an object by use of M-sequence correlation method. Thirdly, a measurement method to obtain the position of an object is described by use of phase-arrayed ultrasonic sensor, which gives us a wide-range position determination in a short time.
