Medical X-ray examination are increased double for the last $6{\sim}8$ years. Therefore a patient exposure dose should be decrease half every 7 years. We made an experiment on copper filter thickness to decrease a patient exposure dose up to half and compared to the Image quality by MTF. The results as follow 1. A thin region like extremities needs a thicker Cu filter as compared a thick region. 2. 1/2 reduction filter must be thicker when kVp Increase. 3. Exposure factor should be increas when using 1/2 reduction filter ; extremity is 4.0 times, chest 2.9 times, skull 1.62 times, and abdomen 1.58 times 4. The MTF of using 1/2 reduction filter is lower than without filter. But no difference of visual image. 5. 1/2 reduction filter compared with double speed screen showed almost same image quality.

This study selected and analyzed filter media that can be applied in non-point pollution reduction devices aimed at processing the source of pollution on site for road runoff that increases rapidly in rainfall-runoff in order to improve the water quality of urban areas. First, the factors that affect the quality of runoff caused by sources of non-point pollution include physical and social factors such as the usage of land around the area of water collection, type of pavement and movement of cars and people, as well as rainfall characteristics such as frequency, intensity, amount and duration of rainfall. Second, the purification tests of the filter media were processed for pH, BOD, COD and T-P, and the filter media showed to have initial purification effect at that items. However, the filter media showed to be very effective for the processing of SS, T-N, Zn and Cd from the beginning to the end. Third, for filter media, zeolite and vermiculite showed to be effective for processing SS, T-N, Zn and CD constantly, and composite filter media including zeolite showed to have strong processing effects. The authors conclude that this study can be applied to technical areas and policies aimed at reducing non-point pollution in urban areas and can also contribute to allowing eco-friendly management of rainfall as well as improvement of water quality.

난청인의 청력 손실은 개인별로 다양하므로 기존의 대칭적으로 주파수 밴드별 청각 필터를 구현하는 방법은 다양한 형태의 난청인의 청력 손실을 적절하게 모사해주지 못한다. 각 중심주파수와 음성의 입력크기에 따라 청각 필터의 형태가 비대칭적으로 바뀌고 청력손실이 있는 난청인은 청력 손실에 따라 청각필터의 형태가 정상인들과는 다른 형태로 바뀌게 되며 음질에도 차이가 있다. 본 연구에서는 난청인의 난청 정도에 따라 변하는 비대칭 청각 특성을 잘 반영한 청각필터를 구현하여 몇 가지 실험을 통해 각 구현된 청각 필터의 성능을 객관적으로 평가하였다. 실험은 구현된 청각 필터를 통한 음성의 perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ) 와 log likelihood ratio (LLR)를 사용하였으며 그 값을 통해 처리된 음성의 객관적인 음질과 왜곡정도를 평가 하였다. 청력 손실을 주었을 때 대칭과 비대칭 청각 필터사이의 PESQ 와 LLR 값을 실험해 본 결과 청각 필터 간의 큰 차이를 보였다. 위 실험 결과들로 대칭과 비대칭 청각 필터의 형태에 따라서 음성의 음질에 영향을 받는다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 특히, 난청이 있을 때 중심 주파수별 청각 필터의 비대칭적 형태 변화가 난청인이 받아들이는 음질에 영향이 있었다.

의료영상의 화질이 진단의 정확성에 중요한 요소이다. 그러므로 의료영상의 화질을 향상시킬 수 있는 방법들이 연구되어져 왔다. 그 중에서 주파수 도메인 필터가 영상의 화질을 향상시킬 수 있는 강력한 도구이다. 본 논문에서는 X선 의료영상에 기존의 고주파통과 필터에 최적값을 적용해서 에지영역을 개선하였고, 결과영상에 기존의 고주파 강조 필터에 최적값을 사용하여 에지영역 및 평탄영역의 대비를 향상시켰다. 마지막으로, 최소평균제곱오차필터를 사용해서 결과영상에 잡음을 최소화했다. 결과적으로, 제안된 방법이 기존 필터들에 비해서 영상의 대비와 에지부분들을 향상시켰으며, 더불어 잡음제거의 효과를 보였다.

An automation process of filter unit is presented for the application of the assembling procedure and dry furnace work. By that automation procedure, it is expected to enhance working environment such as reducing laboring load, harmful gas, and burning scald. Furthermore, this automation process also minimizes via standardization of manufacturing process so that it may increase productivity and reliability. An automation process of filter unit is presented for the application of the assembling procedure and dry furnace work. Filter automation process also gives a good quality and productivity by simplifying to only one line from the complicated process such as filter cutting$\rightarrow$ adhering$\rightarrow$fabricating in a very small space. It is found that a new conceptual design of dry furnace shows the better quality like uniform heat distribution compared to the conventional design. It is also found that the present design gives a better working environment by adding cooling system.

In power quality monitoring, voltage fluctuation is one of the power quality problems, which cause light flickers. To determine the flicker severity, the flicker meter concept was developed in an IEC 61000-4-15 standard. Generally, voltage fluctuations are described as an amplitude modulation(AM). The flicker meter of IEC 61000-4-15 as an international standard for flicker measurement recommends square demodulation method to detect flicker signals from voltage fluctuation signals. This paper suggests a new effective method using filter bank to detect and estimate flicker signals, which do not need square demodulation. For the accurate detection of flicker signals, the filter bank is designed with a full consideration of the spectrum characteristics of voltage fluctuation signals described as AM. The frequency and magnitude of the detected flicker signals are estimated using recursive method. Computer simulations were performed on synthesized signals to prove validity of the proposed method.

In speech communication systems where two different speech codecs are interoperated, transcoding algorithm is a good approach because of its low complexity and improved synthesized speech quality. This paper proposes an efficient method to further improve the performance of transcoding algorithms as well as to reduce the complexity. In the conventional transcoding algorithms. a post-filter and a perceptual weighting filter should be operated sequentially because both decoding and encoding processes are needed. This results in the redundancy of the processing in terms of complexity and perceptual quality. Using the fact that their filter structures are similar, we replaced the two filters with one. The proposed algorithm requires 72.8% lower complexity than the conventional transcoding algorithm when we compare only the complexity of the filtering processes. The results of both objective and subjective tests verify that the proposed algorithm has slightly better quality than the conventional one.

In this paper, we present a new interpolation method for the color filter away(CFA). In order to capture color images. typical input devices use a single chip CCD imaging sensor with color filter array. As a result, the single chip CCD does not provide sufficient color resolutions since it arranges different color filters sequentially on a single CCD, resulting in aliasing noise and loss of resolution. In order to reconstruct high quality color images, we propose to use the interpolation algorithm using high order B-splines. Experiments show promising results.

This study compares the performance of the filters with various media in pretreatment of seawater desalination by reverse osmosis. For this purpose, Masan bay seawater is used as raw water. The filter performance is evaluated by the filtrate quality and the head loss development. Five media is selected in this study: anthracite, $Filtralite^{(R)}$, sand, Pumice, $AFM^{(R)}$. These media are used in combination for dual media filter and alone for mono media filter. The comparison results show that NC0.8-1.6 is the best $Filtralite^{(R)}$. The dual media filter of NC0.8-1.6 and sand outperformed other filters in particle removal. The dual media filter of anthracite and sand showed good performance in organic removal. The mono media filter of Pumice produced the similar filtrate quality as the mono media filter of sand although the effective size of Pumice is considerably greater than that of sand. Due to big size, head loss development is maintained slow in the filtration of Pumice.
