Mucociliary transport is one of the essential defensive functions of the airway mucosa. In this paper, the objective and quantitative method of measuring CBF(Ciliary Beat Frequency) was developed based on the image processing method. Microscopic ciliary images are acquired through image processing board inside PC, and data necessary for the FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) analysis are extracted. By means of FFT analysis, maximum peak frequencies are found in each divided block of a whole acquired image. Finally using these frequencies, we compose a frequency map showing the spatial distribution of CBF's.

An experiment to observe reduction of pressure fluctuation in the compressing system utilizing snubber has done. The experiment measured pressure at inlet and outlet of snubber. It used an air compressor as a model of hydrogen one. Snubber with buffer and snubber without buffer were used to get comprehensive comparison between both of that snubber. An analysis by using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method was conducted to verify working pressure frequency. With this method pure signal of static pressure was filtered from noisy signal. The experiment was run for several speeds of piston movement. It was controlled by adjustable frequency regulator that controled rotation of actuator motor. This was connected to the piston-reciprocating compressor with V-belt. From result obtained, the fluctuation was increasing proportionally when frequency of driver motor was increased.

The correlation identification of the subsurface is a novel electrical prospecting method which could suppress stochastic noise. This method is increasingly being utilized by geophysicists. It achieves the frequency response of the underground media through division of the cross spectrum of the input & output signal and the auto spectrum of the input signal. This is subject to the spectral leakage when the cross spectrum and the auto spectrum are computed from cross correlation and autocorrelation function by Discrete Fourier Transformation (DFT, "To obtain an accurate frequency response of the earth system, we propose an improved correlation identification method which uses all phase Fast Fourier Transform (APFFT) to acquire the cross spectrum and the auto spectrum. Simulation and engineering application results show that compared to existing correlation identification algorithm the new approach demonstrates more precise frequency response, especially the phase response of the system under identification.

For the excavation of the rock, blast method is put into operation in most of the construction site in Korea. In comparison to other methods of excavation, blast method has many merits such as improvement in efficiency in operation, reducement of operation period, and etc. However, blast operation also creates much loss due to the blast vibration, noise, and fly rocks. Thus, in this study, we have examined main features, rock fragmentation effect and the application of plasma method the one of shallow vibration method. In this study, the attenuation exponent of blast method operated in the site was 1.39~1.40 and that of the plasma method was analysed to be 1.45~2.23. From the location where the distance between excavation location and observation location was over 15 m, most of excavation vibration were measured to be less than 0.2 kine(cm/sec), which is also the allowed standard value of sensitive buildings, such as cultural assets and computer facilities. According to the result of FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) analysis, the frequency measured through blast method in this site was 30~50 Hz and the frequency of plasma method ranges in between 30~130 Hz.

In the maritime communication, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) communication terminal should be operated with low power consumption, because the communication should be accomplished in the circumstance of disaster. Therefore, Low power FFT processor is required to be designed with current mode signal processing technique than digital signal processing. Current- to-Voltage Converter (IVC) is a device that converts the output current signal of FFT processor into the voltage signal. In order to lessen the power consumption of OFDM terminal, IVC should be designed with low power design technique and IVC should have wide linear region for avoiding distortion of signal voltage. To design of one-chip of the FFT LSI and IVC, IVC should have a small chip size. In this paper, we proposed the new IVC with wide linear region. We confirmed that the proposed IVC operates linearly within 0.85V to 1.4V as a function of current-mode FFT output range of -100~100[uA]. Designed IVC will contribute to realization of low-power maritime data communication using OFDM system.

OFDM Wi-Fi AP is susceptible to the co-channel interference. As a countermeasure, the insertion of a smart has been addressed. Despite of the guaranteed efficiency, the complexity of the post-FFT algorithm often keeps itself from being selected as the countermeasure. Instead, simply constructed pre-FFT smart antenna of which the algorithm is based on the received signal covariance matrix is commonly used and the mathematical modeling of it has been deployed. Computer simulations evaluating the improved BER characteristics of the proposed pre-FFT using the covariance matrix of channel estimator output have been carried out. It has been demonstrated that channel matrix output based smart antenna is superior to that using received signal covariance matrix.

The standard approach consists of using correlation of orthogonal functions in digital filtering, such as well-known FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) and FWT(Fast Walsh Transform). But it needs much calculations, multiplications and additions. The calculation amount is m $log_2m$ in the general case. Therefore, this requires high speed processors to calculate in real time, which can calculate floating point. This study developed improved fast Walsh transform based on dyadic-ordered fast Walsh transform, then regenerated signal flow graph of improved fast Walsh transform, and used it for digital filtering, and then measured fundamental frequency and harmonics for current and voltage signals of power system.

Normalized cross-correlation (correlation coefficient) is a useful measure for pattern matching in PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) analysis. Because it does not have a corresponding simple expression in frequency domain, several fast but inexact measures have been used. Among them, three measures of correlation for PIV analysis and the normalized cross-correlation were evaluated with a sample calculation. The test revealed that all other proposed correlation measures sometimes show inaccurate results, except the normalized cross-correlation. However, correlation coefficient method has a weakpoint that it requires so long time for calculation. To overcome this shortcoming, a fast and exact method for calculating normalized cross-correlation is suggested. It adopts Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) for calculation of covariance and the successive-summing method for the denominator of correlation coefficient. The new algorithm showed that it is really fast and exact in calculating correlation coefficient.

Recently, we extract the representative melody of the music and index the music to reduce searching time at the content-based music retrieval system. The existing study has used MIDI data to extract a representative melody but it has a weak point that can use only MIDI data. Therefore, this paper proposes a representative melody retrieval method that can be use at all audio file format and uses digital signal processing. First, we use Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and find the tempo and node for the representative melody retrieval. And we measure the frequency of high value that appears from PCM Data of each node. The point which the high value is gathering most is the starting point of a representative melody and an eight node from the starting point is a representative melody section of the audio data. To verity the performance of the method, we chose a thousand of the song and did the experiment to extract a representative melody from the song. In result, the accuracy of the extractive representative melody was 79.5% among the 737 songs which was found tempo.

Assessing the condition of air insulation by measuring electromagnetic wave generated in it by partial discharges gives warning of developing faults and breakdown which may give some bad effects to other thing concerned with it. Electromagnetic wave are taken from UHF antenna with 20k ~ 2GHz frequency range. The signal waveform and FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) results from UHF antenna for PD(partial discharge) generated from two different electrode(needle-plane, needle-needle) configurations are shown and it is processed by using PRPD($\Phi-q-n$ distribution) method. Cumulative pulse sequence during 100 period is compared with PRPD method. This also will show the possibility of making apparent distinction between two PD sources.
