Microphone array is designed to measure the equivalent source height of vehicle noise. The equivalent source position is defined for an arbirary distribution of acoustic sources above a perfectly reflecting plane and a microphone array for its measurement is developed. The normalized errors of the measured equivalent source heights are defined including the effects of background noise, the geometric near field, and source size. Normalized errors of the measured source heights obtained by a nemerical simulation for each parameter lead to optimization of the microphone spacing and to the design of an array which gives the equivalent source height as a function of frequency. The performance of the designed array is verified using the stationary loudspeaker experiments.

The relationship between the observable noise model and the satellite elevation angle can be modeled quite well by an exponential function.[Jin, 1996] Noise size and dependence on the elevation angle are, however, different for each observation and receiver type. Therefore, the coefficient determination of this model is an issue, and various methods including PR-CP, single difference, and time difference have been suggested. The limitations of them are difficulty to model the carrier phase noise and to eliminate bias. To overcome these disadvantages for using Jin's model, we suggest zero baseline double difference (DD) and noise sorting algorithm. Data DD technique in zero baseline is useful to eliminate all the troublesome GPS biases, and the remaining error is the sum of GPS measurement noises from two satellites. These DD residuals for hours should be sorted by the combination of satellite elevation angles, and then variance value of the residual for each combination can be estimated. Using these values, we construct an over-determined linear equation whose solution is a set of noise variance for each satellite elevation angle. With 24hr Trimble 4000ssi data, we easily worked out the coefficients of the noise model not only for pseudorange but also for carrier phase. We estimated the standard deviation of the measurement DD using our model, and plotted 1 and 3 sigma lines for every epoch to verify the representation of the residual error. 63.3% of pseudorange residual and 65.9% of phase error did not exceed the 1 sigma lines. Additionally, 99.2% and 99.5% of them lied within 3sigma line. These figures prove that the Gaussian property of measurement noise, and that the suggested model by our algorithm corresponds to the observable noise information.

This paper is concerned with the measurement of static and dynamic displacement by image processing(IP) and study for prediction method of velocity and acceleration. To measure the displacement visually, the measurement system consists of a telephoto zoom camera, ccd image device and a computer. The specific target on the white board is used to calculate the displacement of the structure. The captured image is then converted into a pixel-based data and then analyzed numerically. The limitation of the system depends on the image capturing speed and the pixel-size of image. In this paper, we developed for the displacement measurement using the image processing method. The proposed method enables us to measure the vibration measurement, velocity and acceleration directly without any contact. The current resolution of the displacement measurement is limited to 1/100 millimeter scale.

In this paper, we study about the measuring algorithm that can implement Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) more efficiently by two measurement methods using smart sensor. Through the impedance measurement method, the damage condition of structures on wide area is monitored first, and then it changes the mode to guided wave measurement mode by mode switching algorithm when impedance measurement mode detects abnormal signals. Efficient handling of the real-time data would be available by analyzing location and shape of damage through guided wave measurement.

U.S. nuclear regulatory commission(NRC) regulatory guide(RG) 1.20 requires a comprehensive vibration assessment program(CVAP) for use in verifying the structural integrity of reactor vessel internals(RVI) for flow-induced vibrations prior to commercial operation. The CVAP program consist of vibration and fatigue analysis, a vibration measurement program, an inspection program, and a correlation of their results. One of the main purposes of the analysis program is to select measurement locations, however measurement locations can not be determined by only analysis results, therefore we developed selection criteria of measurement locations for advanced power reactor 1400(APR1400) RVI CVAP, It will be used to select measurement locations and instrument types for APR1400 RVI CVAP.

In measuring, uncertainty in measurement is essential to improve measuring reliability. Currently, however, in measuring impact sound insulation of floors, there are no guidelines to estimate uncertainty in measurement. In addition, the concept of uncertainty in rating is required to recognize the relation between measuring and rating. Therefore, through this paper, the efforts have been made to establish uncertainty in measurement and rating of light impact insulation of floors. The result of estimating of uncertainty in measurement and rating in our laboratory is considered reliable, considering ${\pm}0.46{\sim}1.44dB$ of uncertainty in measurement and 1 dB of uncertainty in rating.

In this paper, we fabricated two on-wafer type DUT(Device-Under-Test)s; a 10-dB attenuator and an amplifier using commercially available MMIC and we proposed the measurement method of the noise parameters for the two fabricated DUTs. Since the 10-dB attenuator DUT is a passive device, its noise parameters can be accurately determined when its S-parameters are measured. In the case of the amplifier DUT, its noise parameters are available in the datasheet. Hence, the measured noise parameters using the proposed method can be assessed by comparing with the known noise parameters. The noise parameter measurement method having been presented by the authors requires the S-parameters of the 8-port network used in the measurement and limited to coaxial type DUTs. When on-wafer probes are included in the 8-port network, the 8-port S-parameters requires the measurements with different kinds of connectors. In this paper, we obtained the 8-port S-parameters using the Smart-Cal function in the network analyzer. The measured noise parameters shows about ${\pm}0.2dB$ fluctuations for $NF_{min}$. Other noise parameters with the frequency change show good agreement with the expected results.

Measurement noise variance of the radar is one of the main inputs of a state estimator of surveillance data processing system for air traffic control and has influences on the accuracy performance of maneuvering target tracking. A method is presented of estimating measurement noise variances every frame of target tracking using likelihood functions of multiple IMM filter. The results by running of Monte Carlo simulation show that variances are estimated within 5% of errors compared with true values and the tracking accuracy performance is improved.

In this paper, we propose a controller for a ball and beam system which reduces the measurement error effect under AC and DC noise. The ball and beam system measures data through a sensor. If sensor noise is included in a controller via the feedback channel, the signal is distorted and the entire system cannot work normally. Therefore, some appropriate action for the measurement error effect is essential in the controller design. Our controller is equipped with a gain-scaling factor and a compensator to reduce the effect of measurement error in the feedback signal. Effectively, our proposed controller can reduce the AC and DC noise of a feedback sensor. We analyze the proposed controller by Laplace transform technique and illustrate the improved control performance via an experiment for a ball and beam system.

ISO 140-11 specifies a method for measuring the acoustic properties of floor coverings from the view-point of reducing impact sound transmission. This test method is limited to the specification of procedures for the physical measurement of sound originating from an artificial impact source under laboratory conditions. In this study, ISO 140-11 was reviewed to applicable to domestic floor coverings installed on lightweight floors.
