The noise reduction of the In-The-Ear (ITE) hearing aid (HA) can be achieved by arrays of microphones. Each of the right and the left ears was assumed to have two HA microphones. These arrays of HA microphones produce particular patterns of directivity by some time delay between two microphones. The directivity pattern geometrically increase the S/N ratio. The boundary element method (BEM) was used for the three dimensional simulation of the HA directivity pattern with the two pairs' microphone arrays. The separation between two microphones was fixed to 10 mm. The time delay between the two microphones was calculated to produce the most narrow directivity pattern in the fore front of the head. The variation of the time delay was examined in accordance with input frequencies. This numerical analysis may be then applied for the calculation of the time delay parameter of the digital hearing aid DSP chip.

Two twin microphones may produce particular patterns of binaural directivity by time delays between the twin microphones. The boundary element method (BEM) was used for the simulation of the sound pressure field around the KEMAR head model in order to quantify the acoustic head effect. The sound pressure onto the microphone was calculated by the BEM to an incident sound pressure. Then a planar directivity pattern was formed by four sound pressure signals from four microphones. The optimal binaural directivity pattern may be achieved by adjusting time delays at each frequency while maintaining the forward beam pattern is relatively bigger than the backward beam pattern. The simulation results were verified by the experimental measurement.

This paper describes the design for radiation pattern directivity of vehicle license plate RFID tag antenna to improve the readable range. Directivity pattern of the proposed passive antenna is decided by the meander line position and the bumper size attached to the tag antenna. In order to prove the verification of the calculated directivity pattern and readable range of the proposed antenna, the tag antenna has been fabricated and measured at the anechoic chamber. It is shown that the maximum directivity gain of the measured radiation pattern of active and passive tag antenna were observed 2.32 dBi and 3.1 dBi, respectively. The maximum readable range of passive tag antenna was measured about 8.5 m at ${\pm}45^{\circ}$ beam direction on the basis of the driving car direction($0^{\circ}$ of azimuth angle).

The directivity of the sound pressure increases the sensitivity of the incoming sound from specific directions. The directivity measurement of the sound pressure is usually done in an anechoic room using a sloping motor. In this paper a replaceable anechoic chamber was designed for the acoustic directivity pattern measurement. Electrical equipments were interfaced with a PC for experiment automatic control. Some comparative results are shown in the result.

In this paper, we simulated a radiation pattern directivity of microstrip patch antenna for 9[GHz] using the computer. It is analyzed and compared the directivity of field characteristics at two different aspects. One is that of 1-dimension and 2-dimension array, the other is that of a linear and planar array antenna. We tried the constants for the simulation of teflon substrate, dielectric constant ${\varepsilon}r=2.50$, ground plane conductor thickness t=0.03556, substrate height h=0.72188, dielectric loss degree $tan{\delta}$=0.00085, characteristics impedence of line $Zo=50({\Omega})$. The major advantage of microstrip patch antenna is that the arrangement of antenna is associated with the directivity and effectiveness. We have been studied the difference of the radiation pattern of antenna with wave variety through computer simulation.

A theoretical model has been developed to analyze the jet-edge interaction and the sound radiation. The edge responding to the sinuous impinging jet is regarded as an array of dipoles and their strength is determined by the boundary condition on the edge surface. The surface pressure distribution and the edgeforce are estimated using these dipoles. Then the pressure amplitude and directivity of the sound field is obtained by summing the radiating sounds from the dipole sources. It is found that the effective source is located a little distance downstream from the edge tip. And the directivity of the sound radiation is cardioid pattern near the edge but dipole pattern far from the edge. The theoretical model is confirmed by comparing the theoretical prediction of the edgeforce and sound pressure level with available experimental data.

Noises from the large scale marine propeller are calculated numerically on non-cavitation condition. The hydrodynamic analysis are carried out by potential based panel method with time marching free wake approach. The distribution of hyrodynamic loads on the propeller surface and noise signals are obtained using the unsteady Bernoulli's equation and the Farasssat formula respectively. It turns out that the noise signal shows strong peak at the blade passage frequency. Noise signals and directivity patterns for both the thickness and the loading noise are compared with each other. The directivity pattern for the loading noise shows minor lobe at the backward side of the rotating disc plane.

Noises from the large scale marine propeller are calculated numerically on non-cavitation condition. The hydrodynamic analysis is carried out by potential based panel method with time marching free wake approach. The distribution of hydrodynamic loads on the propeller surface and noise signals are obtained using the unsteady Bernoulli's equation and the Farasssat's formula respectively. It turns out that the noise signal at the narrow band shows strong peak at the blade passage frequency, and the peak value at the 1/3 octave band also shows the same trend. Noise signals and directivity patterns for both the thickness and the loading noise are compared with each other. The directivity pattern for the loading noise shows minor lobe at the backward side of the rotating disc plane.
