Wavelet transformed data can filter signal with each frequency band, because it includes detail information about original signal. Therefore, in this paper, important two noises were removed by wavelet. About AWGN environment UDWT(undecimated discrete wavelet transform), applying hard-threshold, was used and about impulse noise environment, it can be possible to recognize edge of original signal as well as superior denoising effect by using two methods, denoising by threshold and slope of signal by wavelet. SNR was used as a judgemental criterion of a denoising effect and Blocks and DTMF(dual tone multi frequency) were used as a test signal.

A low-power low-cost polar transmitter for EDGE is designed in $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS. A differential delta-sigma modulator (DSM) tunes a three-terminal voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) to perform RF phase modulation, where the VCO tuning curve is digitally pre-compensated for high linearity and the carrier frequency is calibrated by a dual-mode low-power frequency-locked loop (FLL). A digital intermediate-frequency (IF) pulse-width5 modulator (PWM) drives a complementary power-switch followed by an LC filter to achieve envelope modulation with high efficiency. The proposed transmitter with 9mW power dissipation relaxes the time alignment between the phase and envelope modulations, and achieves an error vector magnitude (EVM) of 4% and phase noise of -123dBc/Hz at 400kHz offset frequency.

In this paper we propose a new dual structured tap selection algorithm for voice echo canceller in digital cellular communication system, investigating adaptive filtering algorithms for echo cancellation in long distance telephony or mobile communication system. The proposed algorithm has a two-stage processing structure that after a dispersive region in an impulse response of an echo path is found out, the tap coefficients of a short length filter are adjusted adaptively for the region, because the impuse response has a very little portion of the dispersion. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm with 256 taps gives a performance of convergence speed superior to both full-tap normalized least mean with 256 taps gives a performance of convergence speed superior to both full-tap normalized least mean square (NLMS) and a scrub taps waiting in a queue (STWQ) algorithms by about eighty per cent, also to a tap selection algorithm by about twenty per cent. And the resutls diplay that if the more tap coefficients are used due to a long delayed dispersive zone, the proposed algorithm produces the better performance.

Metal halide (MH) lamps have been largely used due to high luminous efficiency, good color rendering, and long life. Since the metal halide lamps have problems of high ignition voltage and acoustic resonance. Thus, the design of ballast is very difficult for engineers. This paper proposes prototype of electric ballast in order to solve above two problems. The proposed electric ballast is consisted of EMI filter, full wave rectifier circuit, active PFC, DBI(Dual Buck Inverter), dimming circuit and ignitor circuit. The DBI supplies both rectangular voltage and current to the lamp. As the result of the experiment, the acoustic resonance was eliminated and the ignitor circuit was designed to generate high ignition voltage than 5kV. It makes the dimming circuit possible to control the lamp power in range between 230W and 350W.

In this paper, a new optical parallel binary arithmetic processor (OPBAP) capable of computing arbitrary n-bit look-ahead carry full-addition is proposed and implemented. The conventional Boolean algebra is considered to implement OPBAP by using two schemes of optical logic processor. One is space-variant optical logic gate processor (SVOLGP), the other is shadow-casting optical logic array processor (SCOLAP). SVOLGP can process logical AND and OR operations different in space simultaneously by using free-space interconnection logic filters, while SCOLAP can perform any possible 16 Boolean logic function by using spatial instruction-control filter. A dual-rail encoding method is adopted because the complement of an input is needed in arithmetic process. Experiment on OPBAP for an 8-bit look-ahead carry full addition is performed. The experimental results have shown that the proposed OPBAP has a capability of optical look-ahead carry full-addition with high computing speed regardless of the data length.

This paper proposed a versatile algorithm based on a dual-tree complex wavelet transform for intensifying the visual aspect of medical images. First, the decomposition of the input image into a high sub-band and low-sub-band image is done. Further, to improve the resolution of the resulting image, the high sub-band image is interpolated using Lanczos interpolation. Also, contrast enhancement is performed by singular value decomposition (SVD). Finally, the image reconstruction is achieved by using an inverse wavelet transform. Then, the Gaussian filter will improve the visual quality of the image. We have collected images from the hospital and the internet for quantitative and qualitative analysis. These images act as a reference image for comparing the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm with the existing state-of-the-art. We have divided the proposed algorithm into several stages: preprocessing, contrast enhancement, resolution enhancement, and visual quality enhancement. Both analyses show the proposed algorithm's effectiveness compared to existing methods.

Frequency-multiplication technology based on microwave photonic principles can be used to generate microwave and millimeter wave signals with a wide frequency tuning range. However, the existing cascaded external modulation frequency-tupling scheme needs to ensure the phase coherence of the modulated Radio Frequency (RF) signal, while the phase modulation directly limits the frequency tuning range of the external modulation frequency multiplication. In this paper, a novel approach for generating an incoherent frequency 12-tupling signal with cascade modulation is proposed. The structure of cascaded dual-parallel Mach-Zehnder modulators can generate a frequency 12-tupling signal. The proposed structure uses no filter or phase control of the RF driving signal. Microwave photonic frequency-tupling was realized under incoherent conditions. Software simulations and experiments validated the proposed structure and proved that it can generate frequency 12-tupling microwave signals under incoherent conditions. Both the frequency range and reliability of the frequency-tupling system has been improved by the proposed structure.

We introduce Maemi Dual Field Telescope System (MDFTS) which is newly installed at Kyung Hee Astronomical Observatory (KHAO). MDFTS consists of two telescope tubes (40cm and 10cm), whose observing fields are aligned with different field of view, 15' x 11' and 83' x 63' respectively. We present the specification of instruments (telescope, mount, camera, and filter system) and the observation environment of KHAO. We expect that MDFTS can be used for transient survey e.g. Intensive Monitoring Survey of Nearby Galaxies (IMSNG). Based on observations conducted so far, the limiting magnitude of 40cm telescope in B-band is B_lim ~ 16 mag at 5-σ detection with 150 seconds total integration time under dark and clear observing condition. Also the integrated observing software for MDFTS, KAOS40 is now under developing.

The open circuit voltage (OCV) is widely used to estimate the state of charge (SOC) in many estimation algorithms. However, the relationship between the OCV and SOC can not be exactly same for all batteries. Because the conventional OCV-SOC differs between batteries, there is a problem that the relationship of the OCV-SOC should be measured to accurately estimate the SOC. Therefore, the conventional OCV-SOC is modified to a new relationship in this paper. Thus, problems resulting from the defects of the extended Kalman filter (EKF) can be avoided by preventing the relationship from varying. In this paper, SOC and capacity of the lithium-ion battery are estimated using the dual EKF with the proposed method.
