This paper describes the realization of a rela-time adaptive acoustic echo canceller, which adopts a microprogramming method, for removing acoustical echoes in speakerphone systems using th eADSP-2101 microprocessor with a pipeline and modified harvard architecture. We apply the LMS (least mean square) algorithm to estimate the coefficients of a transversal FIR filter. For the acustic adaptive echo canceller, we propose a parallel operation programming to imrove algorithm execution speed and apply a nonlinear quantization to reduce the quantization error caused by large dynamic range of voice signal.

The Impact Echo method can be used to measure the thickness of concrete plate like structures. Measurements are based on the identification of a clear thickness resonance frequency which can be difficult in very thick or highly attenuative plates. In this study the detectability of the measured resonant frequency is enhanced by time domain summation of signals with different source receiver spacing. The proposed method is based on the spatial and temporal properties of the first higher symmetric zero group velocity Lamb mode (S1-ZGV) which are described in detail. No application dependent tuning or filtering is needed which makes the method robust and suitable for implementation in automatic IE thickness measurements. The proposed technique is exemplified with numerical data and field data from a thick concrete wall and a highly attenuative asphalt concrete layer.

A Multibeam Echo Sounder (MBES) is commonly used for rapid seafloor mapping. We herein present a time-domain integrated system simulation technique for MBES development. The Modeling and Simulation (M&S) modules consist of four parts: sensor array signal transmission, propagation and backscattering modeling in the ocean environment, beamforming of the received signals, and image processing. Also, the simulation employs a ray-theory-based algorithm to correct the reconstructed bathymetry, which has errors due to the refraction caused by the vertical sound velocity profile. The developed M&S technique enables design parameter verification and system parameter optimization for MBES. The framework of this technique can also be potentially used to characterize the seabed properties. Finally, typical seafloor images are presented and discussed.

Friction welding has emerged as a reliable process for high-production commercial applications with significant economic and technical advantages. But nondestructive test in friction weld was not clearly developed. Therefore the experimental verification is necessary in order to understand the characteristcs of the pulse echo effects according to various change in welding conditions. This paper presents an attempt to determine the relationship between the varios welding conditions and the coefficients of reflection using the ultrasonic pulse echo method in dissibilar metals friction weld. The new approach of calculating the coefficients of reflection based on measured amplitudes of the echoes is applied in this paper. These coefficients provides a single quantitative measurement which involves both acoustic energy reflected at the welded interface as well as transmitted across the interface. As a result, it was known that the quantitave relationship between welding conditions and the coefficients of reflection using the ultrasonic pulse echo exists in dissimilar metals friction weld.

Quadrupolar interaction is a strong line broadening agent for nuclei of half-integer spin except the central line. The two-pulse quadrupolar echo technique is widely used, which refocuses the quadrupolar broadening. Echo formation is due to the cancellation of quadrupolar broadening effect by the applied two pulses. Since the central line is not quadrupolar broadened, it should not be involved in the echo formation. However, the central line peak always appears in experiments. This is explained qualitatively here by close examination on the time development of individual coherence. This explanation is used to predict the number of echoes that will be formed with 2 pulse sequence for nuclei of I=3/2, 5/2, 7/2, 9/2 with ease.

이선 선로를 통한 full-duplex 데이타 전송에 있어서 hybrid-coupler의 불완전한 송·수신에 따른 반향신호는 데이타 검출에 큰 장애가 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 산술평균에 의한 반향신호 추정법을 제시하고 이를 적응 디지탈 필터에 의한 추정법과 이론적 해석 및 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 비교하였다. 양자화 효과를 고려한 이론적인 해석 결과 산술평균 추정을 사용한 반향제거는 hardware 구성이 간단하면서도 수렴이 매우 빠름을 밝혔다. 특히 제시된 방식은 선로 감쇠량에 관계없이 반향신호를 정해진 시간내에 충분히 제거할 수 있다.

본 논문에서는 릴레이 스테이션에서 에코 제거를 사용하는 새로운 릴레이 시스템을 제안하였다. 제안된 릴레이 시스템에서는 한 심볼을 전송하는데 기존 릴레이 시스템에 비해 절반의 시간 자원만을 필요로 한다. 에코 제거 기법과 제안된 시스템의 프레임 구조를 기술하였으며 제안된 기법은 기존 시스템에 비해 두 배의 용량을 가짐을 모의실험으로 보였다.

We propose a new method for detecting voids behind tunnel concrete linings using the impact-echo method that is based on continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and a convolutional neural network (CNN). We first collect experimental data using the impact-echo method and then convert them into time-frequency images via CWT. We provide a CNN model trained using the converted images and experimentally confirm that our proposed model is robust. Moreover, it exhibits outstanding performance in detecting backfill voids and their status.

This research aims at investigation of accuracy potential of RTK(Real-Time Kinematic) GPS in combination with Echo Sounder(E/S) for the coastal mapping. Apart from this purpose, the accuracy of ambiguity resolution with the OTF(On The Fly) method was tested with respect to the initialization time. The result shows that the accuracy is better than 1cm with 5-minute initialization in the distance of 10km baseline. The seaside topography was measured by the RTK GPS only, on the other hand the seafloor topography was surveyed in combination of RTK GPS and E/S. Comparing to the volume of seaside measured by RTK GPS and digital topographical map, the difference of only 2% was achieved. This indicates that the coastal mapping. As a result, it has been revealed that every possible noise in surveying could be corrected and the accuracy could be improved. The accuracy of GPS data acquired in real time was as good as that acquired by post processing. It is expected that it will be useful for the analysis of coastal geographic characteristics because DTM(Digital Terrain Model) can be also constructed for the harbor reclamation, the dredging, and the variation of soil movement in a river.

The seaside topography was measured by the RTK GPS only, on the other hand the seafloor topography was surveyed in combination of RTK GPS and E/S. Comparing to the volume of seaside measured by RTK GPS and digital topographical map, the difference of only $2\%$ was achieved. This indicates that the coastal mapping. As a result, it has been revealed that every possible noise in surveying could be corrected and the accuracy could be improved.
