The ultrasound image uses ultrasonic pulses to receive the reflected waves and construct an image necessary for diagnosis. At this time, when the signal becomes weak, noise is generated and a slight difference in brightness occurs. In addition, fluctuation of image due to breathing phenomenon, which is the characteristic of ultrasound image, and change of motion in real time occurs. Such a noise is difficult to recognize and diagnose visually in the analysis process. In this paper, morphological features are automatically extracted by using image processing technique on ultrasound acquired images. In this paper, we implemented a GPU - based fast filter using a cloud big data processing platform for image processing. In applying the GPU - based high - performance filter, the algorithm was run with performance 4.7 times faster than CPU - based and the PSNR was 37.2dB, which is very similar to the original.

The main purpose of this paper is to compare the performances of various filters with color images to remove the noise. Furthermore, we suggest a modified de-noising process by the transformation of color model from RGB to another color models, such as HSV and $YC_BC_R$, to improve the quality of de-noising methods encompassing Median, Wiener, and Mean filters. Neither the performance comparison of the de-noising filters with color images nor the converting the color model for better de-noise on the degraded images haven't been performed before. Inspired to make improvements, we conduct experiments with new de-noising process on color images. The result of the experiments is shown that it could assist on certain filters being more reliable techniques.

The demand of high speed machining is increasing because the high speed cutting providers high efficiency of process, short process time, improved metal removal capacity and better surface finish. Active magnetic bearings allow much high surface speed than conventional ball bearings and therefore greatly suitable for high speed cutting. The automatic control concept of magnetic bearing system provides ability of intelligent control of spindle system to increase accuracy and flexibility by means of adaptive vibration control. This paper describes a design and development of a milling spindle system which includes built-in motor with power 5.5㎾ and maximum speed 70,000rpm, HSK-32C tool holer and active magnetic bearing system. Magnetic actuators are designed for satisfying static load condition. The Performances of manufactured spindle system was examined for its static and dynamic stiffness, load capacity, and rotational accuracy. This spindle was run up to 70,000 rpm stably, which is 3.5 million DmN.

This paper presents a new control scheme for a DVR(Dynamic Voltage Restorer) system consisting of series voltage source PWM converters. To control negative sequence component of source voltage the detection of negative sequence is necessary. Generally, filtering process is used tn do that. Through this filtering process has some problems. This paper suggests a new method of separating positive and negative sequences. This control system is designed using differential controllers and digital filters, and positive sequence and negative sequences are controlled respectively. The performance of the presented controller and scheme are confirmed through simulation and actual experiment by 2.5kVA prototype DVR.

Doppler processing is the heart of pulsed Doppler radar. It gives a clutter elimination and coherent integration. With the improvement of digital signal processors (DPSs), the implementation using them is more widely used in radar systems. Generally, so as for Doppler processor to process the input data in real time, a parallel processing concept using multiple DSPs should be used. This paper implements a programmable Doppler processor, which consists of MTI filter, DFB and square-law detector, using 8 ADSP21060s. Formulating the distribution time of the input data, the transfer time of the output data and the time required to compute each algorithm, it estimates total processing time and the number of required DSP. Finally, using the TSG that provides radar control pulses and simulated target signals, performances of the implemented Doppler processor are evaluated.

With the development of Information Technology in recent years, the image has been an important means to store or express information. Generally, during the process of acquiring and storing images, the images can be corrupted by noise of which typical types are Impulse(Impulse Noise) and AWGN(Addiction White Gaussian Noise). Impulse noise shows irregularly in black and white over the length and breadth of the image by sharp and sudden disturbance of the image signal. In the Impulse noise environment, SM(Standard Median) filter would be used because of its good noise removal performance and simple algorithm. However, when SM filter removes noise, it also produces error at the edge of image and causes whole image quality deterioration. In this paper, we propose a method based on modified nonlinear filter operation scheme which enhances the features of noise removal and detail image preservation when restoring image in Impulse noise environment. And, we compared it with existing methods and the performances through simulation.

In order to use limited frequency resources efficiently, a single frequency network using digital on-channel repeater(DOCR) has been studied and would be implemented. The DOCR generates strong pre-ghosts to ATSC DTV receivers. The forward filter of equalizer in ATSC DTV receivers compensates the distortion made by pre-ghosts. This process induces noise enhancement and colored noise, thereby results in the performance degradation. In this paper we propose to use a dual-feedback equalizer to combat strong pre-ghosts. The proposed equalizer has two feedback filters. One is the decision feedback filter and the other is non-decision feedback filter. The additional non-decision feedback filter decreases the noise by whitening the noise and preventing the generation of colored noise in pre-ghost channel. Thus the equalization technique of dual-feedback structure has performance enhancement in pre-ghost channel in comparison with conventional decision feedback equalizer(DFE). By simulation we analyzed the performance enhancements of DTV receiver using dual-feedback equalization structure.

The digital images are being degraded by noise in the process of acquisition, storage and transmission, Gaussian or impulse noise is the representative noise. Meanwhile, the image has lots of tendency to be degraded by complex noise, so various researches are being conducted for reducing these complex noise. In this paper, to remove complex noise, the algorithm processed by modified switching median filter and modified adaptive weighted filter according to the result after judging the kinds of noise is proposed. In the simulation result, excellent denoising capabilities. Furthermore, we compared proposed algorithm with existing methods for objective judgement, and PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio) is used by the criterion of judgement.

This paper describes a new method of dynamic error compensation, using a digital convolution integrator and two digital low pass filters. In this method, the process of compensation consists of three steps. First, sampling and digitizing of input signal, second, removing the noise in sampled data by the low pass filter and third, making a convolution integral using the output data of low pass filters. This method showed a good experimental result of reducing dynamic error even if there was a slight noise in the input signal. As a result, the detecting time constant of resistance thermo-bulb was improved to about 1/10th.

In this study digital holographic microscopy system for measurements of 3-D velocities of particles in MR fluid is developed. Holograms are recorded using either a CCD camera with a double pulse laser or a high-speed camera with a continuous laser. To process recorded holograms, the correlation coefficient method is used for focal plane determination of particles. To remove noise and improve the quality of holograms and reconstructed images, a Wiener filter is adopted. The two-threshold and image segmentation methods are used for binary image transformation. For particle pairing, the match probability method is adopted. The developed system will be applied to measurements of the characteristics of unsteady 3-D particle velocities in MR fluids through the next stage of this study.
