The selectable dual band LNA usually uses common source transistor pair each input of which is selectively driven at a different frequency in a series resonant form. This paper analyzes the degradation in noise figures of the MOSFET common source pair with series resonance when it is driven concurrently at both inputs with different frequencies as a concurrent dual band LNA. Results of analysis will be compared with the measured noise figures of CMOS LNA with double inputs fabricated in 0.18 $\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS process. Additionally, analyzing the contributions of FET channel noise and source noise from the LNA operating in the other band, this paper proposes optimum matching topology which minimizes the added noises for concurrent operation.

Community noise has been great concerned in public. A traffic noise from a road or a railway has affected too mush damage on quiet living environment. In this paper, a measured noise signal on a street has been applied to extract a noise source and a path by using a complex cepstrum. An example shows that the waveform of the source and the path could be separated if a temporal windowing is properly applied.

There is a noticeable hum from the inverter board of LCD TV when in operation. In this study, we investigate the source and the characteristics of this noise for the inverter board of LCD TV using measurement of vibration and noise. Modal analysis of vibration and noise is visualized for identification of noise sources and transmission vibration. The main source of noise was the transformer of the LCD TV inverter. A noise reduction was achieved by damping the structural elements.

The entropy evaluation method for noise sources is one of the evaluation methods for the random number generator that is the essential element of modern cryptographic systems and cryptographic modules. The primary entropy evaluation methods outside of the country are more suitable to apply to hardware noise sources than software noise sources, and there is a difficulty in quantitative evaluation of entropy by software noise source. In this paper, we propose an entropy evaluation method that is suitable for software noise sources, considering characteristics of software noise sources. We select time-dependent noise sources that are software noise sources of Windows OS, and the heuristic analysis and experimental analysis are performed considering the characteristics of each time-dependent noise source. Based on these analyses, we propose an entropy harvest method from the noise source and the min-entropy estimation method as the entropy evaluation method for time-dependent noise sources. We also show how to use our entropy evaluation method in the Conditioning Component described in SP 800-90B of NIST(USA).

This study presents the design modification for SCR muffler of a commercial vehicle. Its main objective is the reduction of radiated noise at SCR muffler. For this study, the research of five steps were achieved by experimental and CAE analysis. First step is the measurement of radiated noise using impact-acoustic test. Second step is the source identification using experimental modal analysis. The cause of radiated noise source is confirmed by the resonance of end plates at SCR muffler. Third step confirms the possibility of resonance avoidance using SDM analysis applied the mass control. Fourth step is the suggestion of design modification which is the change of mode shape by CAE analysis. Last step is the verification of design modification using SYSNOISE analysis. Finally, the prototype product applied the countermeasure of resonance evasion was manufactured and the reduction of radiated noise at SCR muffler was confirmed by pass-by noise test.

We derive analytical expressions for the output spectral density and the noise power $P_{\beta}$ in noise loading analysis using Volterra kernels to characterize fiber nonlinearities. The bandwidth of the input noise source has little effect on $P_{\beta}$, but the power of the input noise source and the dispersion parameter value of the fiber have a significant effect on $P_{\beta}$. The Volterra method predicts ${\Delta}P_{\beta}[dB]$ = 30 dB/decade, which agrees very accurately over a wide range of fiber parameters compared with the numerical results by the split-step Fourier method. Therefore the Volterra method could be useful to predict the performance of a dense WDM system when we plan to upgrade fiber or increase signal power.

This paper presents spectrum analysis technique to identify abnormal noise produced in diesel railcars. Coherence and coherent power spectrum are very useful in determining source identifications. Experiments are applied to two different cars with similar phenomena about the case of stop and running condition. Metal contact in mounting bracket part which is excited by excessive transmission vibration is found to cause abnormal noise.

The diffuser noise of HVAC(heating ventilating and air-conditioning) uses dB(A) or NC as a indoor noise criteria that ASHRAE represents, and there is no specific guide line for application. According to the previous study, there are some problems like that even though the sound level of sound source is same, the NC shows different values, which makes the noise rating confused. This problem is caused by the frequency characteristics of sound source and its sound level. Therefore, appropriate evaluation method should be considered based on the subjective responses. This study aims to analyze the physical parameters appropriate for the evaluation of HVAC diffuser noise. To achieve this, recording of sound sources, calculation of physical parameters and psycho-acoustic experiment were carried out and the results were derived from the correlation analysis between physical parameters and subjective evaluatio

This paper describes a calculation method of source level of a ship transient noise, which is one of the important elements for the ship detection. Aim of transient noise measurements is to evaluate of acoustic energy due to singular occurrence, which is therefore defined as non-periodic and short termed events like an attack periscope, a rudder and a torpedo door. In generally, in the case of randomly spaced impulse, the spectrum becomes a broadband random noise with no distinctive pattern. Therefore, frequency analysis is not particularly revealing for type of signal. In the paper, it is performed in time domain to analyze a transient noise. However, a source level of transient noise is required an investigation for multiple frequency band. So, in order to calculate a source level of transient noise, a design of exponential weighting function, convolution, band pass filtering, peak detection, root mean square, and parameter compensation are applied. The effectiveness of this calculation scheme is studied through computer simulations and a sea test. Furthermore, an application of the method is applied in a real case.
