This paper is concerned with the suppression of noise and vibrations of the brake system of elevator traction machine by means of a solenoid control technique. The solenoid is used to hold the brake shoe, which is then released by turning the solenoid off. Since the brake shoe hits the brake disk, vibrations and noise occur. We developed the solenoid control technique based on the dynamic behavior of the solenoid. The theoretical model for the solenoid is modeled by using linear magnetic principles. The solenoid model was then combined with the vibration model to simulate the vibrations of brake system. The simulation results show that the additional pulse input to the solenoid can decrease the vibrations. The timing of the applied pulse is determined by observing the current. The experimental results show that both the vibrations and noise can be substantially decreased, which validates the approach developed in this paper.

This paper presents a 1.9-GHz digital ${{\Delta}{\Sigma}}$ fractional-N PLL with a finite impulse response (FIR) filter embedded for noise suppression. The proposed digital implementation of FIR provides a simple method of increasing the number of taps without complicated calculation for gain matching. This work demonstrates 32 tap FIR filtering for the first time and successfully filtered the in-band phase noise generated from delta-sigma modulator (DSM). Design considerations are also addressed to find the optimum number of taps when the resolution of time-to-digital converter (TDC) is given. The PLL, fabricated in $0.11-{\mu}m$ CMOS, achieves a well-regulated in-band phase noise of less than -100 dBc/Hz for the entire range inside the bandwidth of 3 MHz. Compared with the conventional dual-modulus division, the proposed PLL shows an overall noise suppression of about 15dB both at in-band and out-of-band region.

To test the real image quality of a spectral attenuated inversion-recovery (SPAIR) fat-suppression (FS) techniquein clinical abdominal MRI by comparison to turbo spin echo inversion-recovery (TSEIR) fat-suppression (FS) technique. 3.0T MRI studies of the abdomen were performed in 30 patients with liver lesions (hemangiomas n: 15; HCC n: 15). T2W sequences were acquired using SPAIR TSEIR. Measurements included retroperitoneal and mesenteric fat signal-to-noise (SNR) to evaluate FS; liver lesion contrast-to-noise (CNR) to evaluate bulk water signal recovery effects; and bowel wall delineation to evaluate susceptibility and physiological motion effects. SPAIR-TSEIR images produce significantly improved FS and liver lesion CNR. The mean SNR of the retroperitoneal and mesenteric fat for SPAIR were 20.5, 10.2 and TSEIR were 43.2, 24.1 (P<0.05). SPAIR-TSEIR images produced higher CNR for both hemangiomas CNR 164.88 vs 126.83 (P<0.05) and metastasis CNR 75.27 vs 53.19 (P<0.05). Bowel wall visualization was significantly improved using in both SPAIR-TSEIR (P< 0.05). The real image quality of SPAIR was better than over conventional TSEIR FS on clinical abdominal MRI scans.

In this paper, we propose a new jammer suppression algorithm that uses orthogonal waveform space projection (OWSP) processing for a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) radar system exposed to a jamming signal. Generally, a conventional suppression algorithm based on adaptive beamforming (ABF) needs a covariance matrix composed of the jammer and noise only. By exploiting the orthogonality of the transmitting waveforms of MIMO, we can construct a transmitting waveform space (TWS). Then, using the OWSP processing, we can build a space orthogonal to the TWS that contains no SOI. By excluding the SOI from the received signal, even in the case that contains the SOI and jamming signal, the proposed algorithm makes it possible to evaluate the covariance matrix for ABF. We applied the proposed OWSP processing to suppressing the jamming signal in bistatic MIMO radar. We verified the performance of the proposed algorithm by comparing the SINR loss to that of the ideal covariance matrix composed of the jammer and noise only. We also derived the computational complexity of the proposed algorithm and compared the estimation of the DOD and DOA using the SOI with those using the generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) algorithm.

A shift-averaged Haar wavelet transform was introduced as a new and excellent tool to distinguish real peaks from the noise contaminated NMR signals. It is based on Haar wavelet transform and translation-invariant denoising process. Donoho＇s universal threshold was newly introduced to the shift-averaged Haar wavelet transform for the purpose of automated noise suppression, and was quantitatively compared with the conventional uniform threshold method in terms or threshold and signal to noise ratio (SNR). New algorithm was combined with a routine to suppress a large solvent peak by singular value decomposition (SVD). Combined algorithm was applied to the real spectrum that containing large solvent peak.

Singular value decomposition (SVD) has been used during past few decades in the advanced NMR data processing and in many applicable areas. A new modified SVD, piecewise polynomial truncated SVD (PPTSVD) was developed far the large solvent peak suppression and noise elimination in U signal processing. PPTSVD consists of two algorithms of truncated SVD (TSVD) and L$_1$ problems. In TSVD, some unwanted large solvent peaks and noises are suppressed with a certain son threshold value while signal and noise in raw data are resolved and eliminated out in L$_1$ problem routine. The advantage of the current PPTSVD method compared to many SVD methods is to give the better S/N ratio in spectrum, and less time consuming job that can be applicable to multidimensional NMR data processing.

In automotive industry, all passenger vehicles are treated with damping materials to reduce structure borne noise. The effectiveness of damping treatments depends upon design parameters such as choice of damping materials. locations and size of the treatment. Generally, the CAE method uses modal strain-energy information of the bare structural panels to identify flexible regions, which in turn facilitates optimization of damping treatments with respect to location and size. This paper proposes a design of the damping material with a CAE(Computer Aided Engineering) methodology based on finite element analysis and DOE(Design Of Experiments) to optimize damping treatments.

Since SPOT4 satellite contained VEGETATION 1 sensor launched, the noise in VEGETATION data was occasionally arisen a difficulty for the data traitement. Blind line noise types were studied in VEGETATION-l short wave infrared channel(SWIR). In order to provide a precis product, the procedure for removing this noise is strongly recommended. In the case that the blind values are clearly distinguished from contamination-free values a simple threshold method was applied, while a changeable threshold method was used for the blind value mixed with contamination-free values. New algorithm presented in this study is consists of two method for each type of SWIR blind. After removing blind line, there were again some residual pixels of blind, because the threshold is not determinated sufficiently low. Lower threshold could remove the blind line as well as the contamination-free pixels. Nevertheless, the results showed a good qualitative improvement as compared with other algorithm.

This paper presents a composite control strategy for the active suppression of vibration due to the unknown disturbances, such as external excitation, harmonic effects and control spillover, as well as high-frequency accelerometer measurement noise in the all-clamped stiffened plate. The proposed composite control action based on the modal approach, consists of two contributions including feedback part and feedforward part. The feedback part is the well-known PID controller, which is widely used to increase the structure damping and improve its dynamic performance close to the resonance frequencies. In order to get better performance for vibration suppression, the weight matrixes is optimized by chaos sequence. Then an improved disturbance observer (IDOB) as the feedforward compensation part is developed to enhance the vibration suppression performance of PID under various disturbances and uncertainties. The proposed IDOB can simultaneously estimate the various disturbances dynamically as well as measurement noise acting on the system and suppress them by feedforward compensation design. A rigorous analysis is also given to show why the IDOB can effectively suppress the unknown disturbances and measurement noise. In order to verify the proposed composite control algorithm (IDOB-PID), the dSPACE real-time simulation platform is used and an experimental platform for the all-clamped stiffened plate active vibration control system is set up. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness, practicality and strong anti-disturbances ability of the proposed control strategy.

본 논문에서는 feedforward 구조와 DGS 마이크로스트립 전송선로를 이용한 새로운 2차 주파수 체배기를 제안하였다. Feedforward 구조는 기본 주파수 신호를 억압하는 역할을 하며, DGS 마이크로스트립 전송선로는 3차 이상의 고조파 신호들을 억압하는 데 사용된다. 제안된 2차 주파수 체배기는 불요파 신호들을 효과적으로 쉽게 억압 할 수 있다. 실험적으로 제안된 방법을 1.87 GHz 신호를 3.74 GHz 신호로 체배하는데 적용하였다. 3.74GHz(If))에서의 출력 전력이 -3 dBm일때, 기본 주파수 신호(1,)는 42.9 dB, 3차 고조파 신호(If,)는 20.2 dB, 4차 고조파 신호(4f))는 29.7 dB의 억압 특성을 얻었다. 100 MHz 대역폭에서 변환 손실은 -2.34 dB ~ -5.8dB 였고, 위상잡음 특성은 -97.51 dB/Hz(＠10 kHz)으로 나타났다.
