In this paper, we propose a new single carrier - frequency domain equalization (SC-FDE) structure to cope with narrow band interference. In the conventional SC-FDE structure, when a high-power narrow band interference exists, channel estimation and data recovery is difficult. To relieve from this problem, this paper proposes a new SC-FDE frame structure to enable frequency-domain channel estimation in the environments that exist narrow band interference. Specifically, in the conventional method, the channel estimation is performed in time-domain first and from that, the frequency-domain channel is obtained by Fourier transform. In contrast, we proposed a new SC-FDE structure to enable frequency-domain channel estimation directly from received signals without time-domain channel estimation. The receiver performance improvement is verified through computer simulation. According to the results, the proposed technique can detect the signal with less than 2 dB loss compared with jammer-free environments, while the conventional method does not communicate with each other.

A New speech processing algorithm using neural networks is proposed. We transform input data into frequency domain and process them by neural networks of 22 output neurons which have Bark scale on the ground that the Bark scale is similiar with that of the characteristics of human cochlea. An utilized neural network is multilayer perceptron, and the characteristics of cochlea have it trained by error back propagation learning algorithm. The trained neural networks suffices functions of human cochlea including the effects of automatic gain control, compression and equalization. Simulation results show that the proposed speech processing algorithm has good performance in automatic gain control, compression and equalization.

An equalization technique for OFDM systems in tine variant fading environment is described. Time variant channels lead to interchannel interference which increases the bit mr rate. A frequency domain equalizer using pilot symbols is proposed. The equalizer decreases the interchannel interference affecting the error performance. The effectiveness of the proposed technique is analyzed via computer simulation.

Time-varying channel characteristics in OFDM systems over doubly selective channels cause inter-carrier interferences(ICI) in the frequency domain. Time domain windowing gives rise to restriction on the bandwidth of the frequency domain channel matrix and makes it possible to approximate the OFDM system as a simplified linear input-output model. When successive interference cancellation based on linear MMSE estimation is employed for channel equalization in OFDM systems, symbol detection ordering produces considerable effects on overall system performances. In this paper, we show the reduction of the residual ICI by time domain windowing and the resultant performance improvements, and investigate the effects of SINR- and CSEP-based symbol detection ordering on the performance of successive interference cancellation.

Multi-carrier data transmission system performance is mostly limited by Inter- symbol-interference that is caused by a dispersive characteristic of the transmission channel. In order to enhance the system performance to meet the service requirements of local access, the channel impulse response shortening method incorporated with a channel frequency response compensation method is proposed. For a fast and efficient implementation of the equalizer proposed, Kalman and LMS algorithms are successively used. To verify the channel equalization performance, a set of computer simulation is performed on a filter bank based multitone system operating in a typical high-speed local area data transmission environment. The results showed us a comparable signal-to-interference improvement over the conventional multitone equalization scheme.

Chest X-ray image cannot be focused in the same manner as optical lenses and the resultant image generally tends to be slightly blurred. Therefore, appropriate methods to improve the quality of chest X-ray image have been studied in this paper. As the frequency domain filters work well for slight blurring and moderate levels of additive noises, we propose an algorithm that is particularly suitable for enhancing chest image. First, the chest image using Gaussian high pass filter and the optimal high frequency emphasis filter shows improvements in the edges and contrast of the flat areas. Second, as compared to using histogram equalization where each pixel of chest image is characterized by a loss of detail and much noises, in using fuzzy logic, each pixel of chest image shows the detail preservation and little noise.

In this paper, we propose a FD USE (frequency domain minimum mean square error) equalizer algorithm for MBOK DS-UWB (M-ary bi-orthogonal keying direct sequence UWB) systems considered as a PHY proposal for high-speed wireless communication in IEEE 802.15.TG3a. The conventional FD MMSE equalization scheme has a structural limit due to insertion of the cyclic prefix (CP) in all transmit packets, but the proposed scheme is able to equalize the channel effect without CP. In order to overcome channel estimation error by multipath delay, we introduce a moving FFT and a moving average scheme. Compared with conventional FD MMSE equalizer and the traditional TD (time domain) MMSE-RAKE receiver, the proposed FD MMSE equalizer has better BER performance and we demonstrate this result by computer simulation.

Since OFDM system suffers from high peak-to average power ratio(PAPR) drawbacks, more energy has been converted to seek for a new substitutable system which can maintain OFDM system's inherent virtues while avoid its defects. Consequently, a new multicarrier system called as CI/OFDM system has been proposed which applied carrier interferometry(CI) code to OFDM system. Due to its low PAPR advantage and orthogonal property, it has received more and more attention. Simultaneously, an old technique called single carrier(SC) system has retaken its attractions for the same purposes. This paper analyzes two cyclic prefixed transmission schemes variants of OFDM system: 1.carrier interferometry-Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (CI/OFDM); 2. Cyclic prefixed single carrie(CP-SC) with frequency domain equalization. We compare the achievable bit rate transmission of the two systems in terms of signal to noise ratio(SNR) by mathematical derivation. We demonstrated that CI/OFDM achieves a bit higher transmission bit rate to that of the CP-SC with frequency domain equalizer.
