A method of the low-frequency noise reduction in an enclosure by using an array of Helmholtz resonator is presented. An integral form of equation, which represents the acoustical coupling between the internal sound field and the resonator array, is formulated so that the boundary element method can be applied to solve the coupling problem. It is shown that the resonator array on the surface of the enclosure can be regarded as impedance patches on the boundary element. Experiments on a simple enclosure acoustically coupled with an array of resonators are conducted to verify the method. The predicted noise reduction by the boundary element method shows good agreement with the measured one. The effects of the resistance of resonators as well as the number of resonators on the noise reduction are demonstrated. As a practical example, the presented method is applied to the payload fairing of a space launcher with resonator arrays. It is demonstrated that the resistance of resonators affects significantly the required number of resonators to achieve a desired noise reduction.

In this paper, we investigated the signal-to-noise ratio improvement in a differential detector, which is a function of the optical noise coupling ratio and the differential gain ratio. A differential detector consists of two photodiodes and a differential amplifier. The differential detector reduced the noise component and improved the signal-to-noise ratio by about 20 dB when the differential gain ratio equals to the optical noise coupling ratio. The differential detector is very effective in removing the environmental optical noise or interference from an adjacent optical channel. This method is also effective when the noise wavelength is similar to the signal.

A novel technique for minimization of simultaneous switching noise is Presented. Dual Layer Power Line (DLPL) structure i:; newly proposed for a possible silicon realization of a mutual inductor, with which an instant large current in the power line is half-divided flowing through two different, but closely coupled, layers in opposite directions. This mutual inductance between two power layers enables us to significantly reduce the switching noise. SPICE simulations show that with a mutual coupling coefficient higher than 0.8, the switching noise reduces by 63% compared to the previously reported solutions. This DLPL technique can also be applied to PCB artworks.

In this paper Statistical Energy Analysis has been considered to predict middle, high frequency air borne interior noise. PIM method is used for verification. Damping loss factor and coupling loss factor have been derived from the response(SPL) of sub systems when the power is applied. The airborne SEA model of vehicle is modeled through AutoSea2. Insulation material's absorption coefficient and transmission loss are acquired from closed form solution and experiment.

In this paper, the impact of integrating large number of I/O (Input-Output) and Core power Delivery Network (PDN) on a 6 layers Flip-Chip Ball Grid Array (FCBGA) package is investigated. The impact of core induced supply noise on high-speed I/O interfaces, and high-speed I/O interface's supply noise coupling to adjacent high-speed I/O interfaces' jitter impact are studied. Concurrent stress validation software is used to induce SSO noise on each individual I/O interfaces; and at the same time; periodic noise is introduced from Core PDN into the I/O PDN domain. In order to have the maximum coupling impact, a prototype package is designed to merge the I/O and Core PDN as one while impact on jitter on each I/O interfaces are investigated. In order to understand the impact of the Core to I/O and I/O to I/O noise, the on-die noise measurements were measured and results were compared with the original PDN where each I/O and Core PDN are standalone and isolated are used as a benchmark.

Noise regulation of heavy construction machinery is getting stricter： 3 dB per every 4 year in European community. To meet this requirement many engineers have adopted the enclosing structures with thick absorbing materials and small opening, This increases internal temperature of the enclosure which have engine systems such as electric equipment that are vulnerable to heat, and engine block and muffler that can be regarded as heat sources. So noise control engineers have to consider a coupling problem: combining heat balance and noise reduction. This paper describes this approach by introducing simple heat transfer theory and SEA. The enclosing system of the loader whose enclosing structure consists of two rooms is investigated to show the validity of this method. The results represent that the simple heat transfer theory can be useful to estimate cooling performance when it is linked together by the back pressure theory in duct system. and the radiated noise can also be estimated by the SEA. Therefore a designer can use these approaches to define the opening ratio of an enclosure and the mass flow rate of air considering radiating noise.

Difficulties in developing process of Liquid Crystal Display(LCD) products such as frequent design modifications, various design requirements, and short-term development period bring on the need of integrated design approach that is efficient and easy to handle. Back Light Unit(BLU) of the LCD, which drastically affects the optical performance of LCD products, is divided into in-coupling part and out-coupling part. Serration of the in-coupling part flattens the light received from point light sources and dot pattern of the out-coupling part regularizes the light sent to screen. Therefore, the optical performance of a LCD product is largely influenced by the shape of serration and the arrangement of dot pattern. In this research, a new design approach which enables to improve the optical performance of LCD products and overcome the prementioned difficulties in developing process of LCD products is proposed. The shape of serration is parameterized to 3 parameters and out-coupling part is partitioned into 10 partitions to apply the optimization technique to this problem. 3 parameters for the shape of serration and densities of 10 partitions are used as design variables in the design optimization. Optical simulation tool named SPEOS is used to evaluate the optical performance of the LCD product. Since the optical simulation uses the random ray tracing technique, numerical noise may possibly be included in the simulation process. To solve the problem caused by numerical noise, the PQRSM which can stably find the solution of the noise problem is used in this research.

In this paper, a novel voltage-controlled oscillator(VCO) using the metamaterial broadside coupled spiral resonators(BC-DSRs) is presented for reducing the phase noise. For reducing of the phase noise, the series spiral structures have been applied for the signal plane and ground plane at each in order to have the large coupling. Compared with the conventional VCO, the proposed VCO has the larger coupling coefficient constant, which makes a higher Q-factor and has reduced the phase noise of the VCO. The proposed VCO has the phase noise of $-121{\sim}-117.16\;dBc$/Hz at 100 kHz in the tuning range, $5.749{\sim}5.853\;GHz$. The figure of merit(FOM) of this VCO is $-198.45{\sim}-194.77\;dBc$/Hz at 100 Hz in the same tuning range, respectively.

A new structure-vibration-control approach is proposed which uses a passive coupling element between two parallel structures to reduce the seismic response of a system due to earthquake excitation. Dynamic characteristics of the two coupled single-degree-freedom systems subject to stationary white-noise excitation are examined by means of statistical energy analysis (SEA) techniques. Optimal parameters of the passive coupling element such as damping and stiffness under different circumstances are determined with an emphasis on the influence of the structural parameters of the system on the optimal parameters and control effectiveness. Numerical results including the root mean square values of the response due to the filtered white-noise excitation and the time-histories of response to El Centro 1940 NS excitation are presented.
