  • Today, stage technology is developing highly by application of digital computer. Performance is composed of audio/video and acoustic technology takes very important position in field of stage technology. Generally speaking, four factors of sound are loudness, pitch, sound timbre and duration. Loudness depends on sound pressure level, yet partly related with spectrum and dulation. Pitch depends mainly on frequence and have a relation with sound pressure and duration. sound timbre depends strongly on spectrum and have a relation with frequence. In this paper, I designed a multi-microphone system which can used in broadcasting and performance stage with vicboss 200MHz-VHF wireless microphone and vicboss 900MHz-VHF wireless microphone. I also studied about multi-microphone which can use conveniently in the super play that needs many microphones. If this multi-microphone is prodused, we could expect better sound quality and a big progress in stereo recording technology.

  • In order to visualize the transfer of sound waves, we performed real-time processing with the fast operating system of GPU, the Graphics Processing Unit. Simulation by using the method of the discrete Huygens' model was also implemented. The sound waves were visualized by varying the real-time processing, the reflecting surfaces within the two-dimensional virtual sound field, and the states of the sound source. Experimental results have shown that reflection and diffraction patterns for the sound waves were identified at the reflecting objects.

  • 인류는 이동수단의 발전으로 많은 편리함을 누리고 있다. 그러나 발전하는 만큼 대기오염의 문제도 증가하고 있다. 이를 해결하기위해 친환경 자동차가 대안으로 떠오르고 있으나, 저속주행시의 엔진음이 미세하여 좁은길이나 골목길 에서의 보행자 교통사고가 증가하고 있다. 이를 해결하기위해 VESS가 개발되었다. 본 논문에서는 보행자 청각 특성을 고려한 가상 엔진음 설계를 제안하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 보행자 사고 예방 및 생명과 재산보호에 도움이 되길 바란다.

  • In order to reduce the threat by illegal unmanned aerial vehicles, a tracking system based on sound was implemented. There are three main points to the drone acoustic tracking method. First, it scans the space through variable beam formation to find a sound source and records the sound using a microphone array. Second, it classifies it into a hidden Markov model (HMM) to find out whether the sound source exists or not, and finally, the sound source is In the case of a drone, a sound source recorded and stored as a tracking reference signal based on an adaptive beam pattern is used. The simulation was performed in both the ideal condition without background noise and interference sound and the non-ideal condition with background noise and interference sound, and evaluated the tracking performance of illegal drones. The drone tracking system designed the criteria for determining the presence or absence of a drone according to the improvement of the search distance performance according to the microphone array performance and the degree of sound pattern matching, and reflected in the design of the speech reading circuit.

  • Sound source localization system is used in a robot, a video conference and CCTV(Closed-circuit television) systems. In this Sound source localization systems are applied to human and they can receive a number of sound data frames during speaking. In this paper, we propose methods which is reducing angle estimation error by selecting sound data frame which can more precisely compute the angles from inputted sound data frame. After selected data converted to angle, the error of sound source localization recognition system can be reduced by applying to medium filter. By the experiment using proposed system it is shown that the average error of angle estimation in sound source recognition system can be reduced up to 31 %.

  • The conventional stethoscope can not store its stethoscopic sounds. Therefor a doctor diagnoses a patient with instantaneous stethoscopic sounds at that time, and he can not remember the state of the patient's stethoscopic sounds on the next. This prevent accurate and objective diagnosis. If the electronic stethoscope, which can store the stethoscopic sound, is developed, the auscultation will be greatly improved. This study describes an amplifier for electronic stethoscope system that can extract heart sounds of fetus as well as adult and alow us hear and record the sounds. Using the developed stethoscopic amplifier, clean heart sounds of fetus and adult can be heard in noisy environment, such as a consultation room of a university hospital, a laboratory of a university. Surprisingly, the heart sound of a 22-week fetus was heard through the developed electronic stethoscope. Pitch detection experiments using the detected heart sounds showed that the signal represents distinct periodicity. It can be expected that the developed electronic stethoscope can substitute for conventional stethoscopes and if proper analysis method for the stethoscopic signal is developed, a good electronic stethoscope system can be produced.

  • An acoustic sensor using PVDF film is proposed in this paper. And its properties, such as sensitivity level, identification of sound source frequencies. and directivity, were experimented. Sensitivity level measured at the distance of 1[m] was limited in the range of ${\pm}$10dB. Adjacent three frequencies were also tested to identify the frequency of sound sources. In the range of audible frequencies, it could distinguish the frequencies of a complex sound. In addition, it was found that the sensor outputs were maximum in the coincided direction with a source, when directivity was experimented with three sound sources and FFT. The proposed PVDF film sensor has good characteristics of directivity and identifying ability as an acoustic sensor.

  • A speech that play a part of important mediation in the man's conversation is the sound of representation to man's emotion and thought, then voice sound could be verified and identified a speaker's speech by individual property. This study indicates as distribution of pitch in searching for sample number of each pitch with eye in the sound waveform of speaker. We propose the algorithm that judge speaker's emotion state, personality, regional group, age, sex distinction, e.t.c., according to the deviation degree.
