A novel microstrip low-pass filter is presented to achieve an ultra-wide stopband with 11 harmonic suppression and very sharp skirt characteristics. The filter is composed of a modified U-shaped resonator (which creates two fully adjustable transmission zeroes), a T-shaped resonator (which determines a cut-off frequency), and four radial stubs (which provide a wider stopband). The operating mechanism of the filter is investigated based on a proposed equivalent-circuit model, and the role of each section of the proposed filter in creating null points is theoretically discussed in detail. The presented filter with 3 dB cut-off frequency ($f_c=2.35GHz$) has been fabricated and measured. Results show that a relative stopband bandwidth of 164% (referred to as a 22 dB suppression) is obtained while achieving a high figure-of-merit of 15,221.

본 논문에서는 곱셈연산이 필요치 안은 변형 비적 적응필터(MMADF : Modified Multiplication-free adaptive Filter) 알고리즘을 제안하고 수렴특성을 해석하였다. 제안한 구조는 DPCM(Differential Pulse Code Modulation)과 Sign 알고리듬을 이용한 MADF 구조에서 1차 필터를 첨가한 구조이다. 해석방법은 계수 비정렬벡터와 그 자기상관행렬의 수렴을 유도하였다. 수렴특성을 평가하기 위하여 분할등기(FSE : Fractionally Spaced Equallizer)에 적용하였으며, Sign 알고리듬, MADF 알고리듬, MMADF 알고리듬을 사용하여 정상상태오차와 수렴속도로 특성을 비교평가 하였다. MMADF 알고리듬을 FSE에 적용한 결과 안정된 수렴특성을 나타내었으며, 동일한 정상상태오차를 갖는 조건에서 시뮬레이션한 결과 기존의 Sign 및 MADF 알고리듬에 비해 신호특성 및 수렴속도가 개선 되었다.

UKF (Unscented Kalman Filter) has been used in the nonlinear systems without initial accurate state estimates instead of EKF (Extended Kalman Filter) of the last decade because the UKF has robustness to the large initial estimation error. In the multirate integrated system such as INS (Inertial Navigation System)/GPS (Global Positioning System) integrated navigation system, however, it is difficult to implement the UKF based navigation algorithm in the mid-grade micro-processor due to the large computational burden. To overcome this problem, this paper proposes a MUKF (Modified UKF) that has a reduced computation burden using the basic idea that the change of the provability distribution for the state variables between measurement updates is small in the multi-rate INS/GPS integrated navigation filter. The performance of the proposed MUKF is verified by numerical simulations.

주파수 영역에서의 적응 신호처리는 입력의 자기 상관 행렬에 이산 퓨리에 변환(DFT Discrete Fourier Transform)을 이용할 때 거의 대각선화 되는 특성으로 인해 시간영역 적응필터보다 주파수 영역 적응 필터가 빠르게 적응한다. 본 논문에서는 변형된 이산 퓨리에 변환(MDFT: modified DFT)을 이용하여 주파수 영역 적응 필터를 설계함으로써 안정한 수렴 속도를 갖는 잡음 제거 시스템을 제안한다. 제안한 구조는 MDFT를 이용하여 연산수를 최소화하며, 안정한 수렴을 유지하면서 블록 없는 처리를 할 수 있고, 최적의 수렴 속도를 위해 입력 자기 상관 행렬에 MDFT를 사용해 근사적으로 대각화 시키고 시간적으로 변하는 스텝 크기를 정규화 하는 고속 적응 잡음 제거(HANR: high speed adaptive noise reduction) 알고리즘이다. HANR 알고리즘을 적용한 필터는 DFT변환법을 사용한 LMS방법(non-proposed)보다 30%정도의 속도 개선이 있다.

사회가 고도의 디지털 정보화 시대로 발전함에 따라 영상복원 등 디지털 영상처리 기술분야에 관한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 임펄스 잡음에 훼손된 영상을 복원하는데 대표적인 방법은 SM(Standard Median) 필터가 있지만, SM 필터는 에지영역에서 오류를 나타내어 영상의 품질을 저하시킨다. 본 논문에서는 임펄스 잡음환경에서 훼손된 영상을 복원하기 위해 화소를 중심으로 하여 이중 마스크를 취하는 변형된 메디안 필터 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 이중 마스크를 취함에 따라 제안한 방법은 우수한 잡음제거 및 에지보존 특성을 나타내었고 영상의 화질을 개선하였다.

In order to investigate the purification effects of livestock waste water, Modified Activated-Sludge Process(MASP) containing marine silica and volcanic ash-rock as the contact media and Sawdust-Soil Filter Method were used. The results obtained are as follows: 1. MASP which treated two metric tons' livestock waste water a day decreased BOD by 97.5% from 4,400.0mg/I to 108.8mg/I and SS by 98.0% from 5,335.0mg/I to 111.0mg/I. 2. MASP decreased BOD by 93.9% from 2,549.1mg/I to 156.6mg/I and SS by 96.3% from 3,521.9mg/I to 132.0mg/I when ten metric ton's livestock waste water was treated a day. 3. BOD and SS were decreased by 83.4% from 45.1mg/I to 7.5mg/I and by 83.4% from 47.5mg/I to 7.9mg/I when the supernatant layer treated by MASP was purified by Sawdust-Soil Filter Method.

This paper presents a modified residual-based EKF (Extended Kalman Filter) for performance improvement of indoor positioning using WiFi RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) measurement. Radio signal strength in indoor environments may have irregular attenuation characteristics due to obstacles such as walls, furniture, etc. Therefore, the performance of the RSSI-based positioning with the conventional trilateration method or Kalman filter is insufficient to provide location-based accurate information services. In order to enhance the performance of indoor positioning, in this paper, error analysis of the distance calculated by using the WiFi RSSI measurement is performed based on the radio propagation model. Then, an IARM (Irregularly Attenuated RSSI Measurement) error is defined. Also, it shows that the IARM error is included in the residual of the positioning filter. The IARM error is always positive. So, it is presented that the IARM error can be estimated by taking the absolute value of the residual. Consequently, accurate positioning can be achieved based on the IEM (IARM Error Mitigated) EKF with the residual modified by using the estimated IARM error. The performance of the presented IEM EKF is verified experimentally.

In the present paper, a novel fast peak detector for single- or three-phase unsymmetrical voltage sags is proposed. The proposed detector is modified from a single-phase digital phase-locked loop based on a d-q transformation using an all-pass filter (APF). APF generates a virtual phase with $90^{\circ}$ phase delay. However, this virtual phase cannot reflect a sudden change of the grid voltage in the moment of voltage sag, which causes a peak value to be significantly distorted and to settle down slowly. Specifically, the settling time of the peak value is too long when voltage sag occurs around a zero crossing, such as phase $0^{\circ}$ and $180^{\circ}$. This paper describes the operating principle of the APF problem and proposes a modified all-pass filter (MAPF) to mitigate the inherent APF problem. In addition, a new fast peak detector using MAPF is proposed. The proposed detector is able to calculate a peak value within 0.5 ms, even when voltage sag occurs around zero crossing. The proposed fast peak detector is compared with the conventional detector using APF. Results show that the proposed detector has faster detection time in the whole phase range. Furthermore, the proposed fast peak detector can be effectively applied to unsymmetrical three-phase voltage sags. Simulation and experimental results verify the advantages of the proposed detector and MAPF.

We consider some problems of the Modified SPRT(Sequential Probability Ratio Test) method for fault detection and isolation of inertial redundant sensor systems and propose an Advanced SPRT method to solve the problems of the Modified SPRT method. One problem of the Modified SPRT method to apply to inertial sensor system comes from the effect of inertial sensor errors such as misalignment, scale factor error and sensor bias in the parity vector, which make the Modified SPRT method hard to be applicable. The other problem is due to the correlation of parity vector components which may induce false alarm. We use a two-stage Kalman filter to remove effects of the inertial sensor errors and propose the modified parity vector and the controlled parity vector which removes the effect of correlation of parity vector components. The Advanced SPRT method is derived form the modified parity vector and the controlled parity vector. Some simulation results are presented to show the usefulness of the Advanced SPRT method to redundant inertial sensor systems.
