This paper is on a new adaptive algorithm which can cancel the acoustic feedback signals in the digital hearing aids. The proposed algorithm uses the normalized LMS algorithm with decorrelators. By doing so, it can be reduced the autocorrelation for the voice signals. As the results of simulations, it is proved that the feedback canceller adopting this algorithm shows the improved SNR of about more than 20 dB.

In this paper, the AEC(acoustic echo canceller) is designed and implemented using VHDL(VHSIC hardware description language). The designed Echo Canceller employs the pipeline and the master-slave structure, and is realized with FPGA. As an adaptive algorithm, the Normalized LMS algorithm is used. For the coefficient adjustment, the Stochastic Iteration Algorithm(SIA) which uses only current residual values is used and the number of registers are evidently reduced and convergence speed is also much improved comparing to existing methods by using EAB of FPGA for FIR filter structure of transceiver. The designed Echo Canceller is verified with the test board implemented for this paper. From the timing simulation echo signals at about 1500 sampling data are converged and ERLE is improved by about 42-dB.

This paper is on a new adaptive algorithm which can cancel the acoustic feedback signals in the digital hearing aids. The proposed algorithm uses the normalized LMS algorithm with decorrelators. By doing so, it can be reduced the autocorrelation for the voice signals. To analyze the convergence characteristics of the proposed algorithm, the simulations were carried out about various input signals. And we had compared the performances of convergence for this algorithm with the ones for the NLMS algorithm. As the results of simulations, it is proved that the feedback canceller adopting this algorithm shows about 5-10 dB more high SNR than the NLMS algorithm for the colored inputs.

Under the condition of a common narrowband target signal and interference signals from several directions, the linearly constrained minimum variance (LCMV) method using the generalized sidelobe canceller (GSC) for adaptive beamforming has been exploited successfully However, in the case of wideband signals, the length of the adaptive filter must be extended. As a result, the complexity of the beamformer increases, which makes real-time implementation difficult. In this paper, we improve the convergence characteristics of the adaptive filter using the transform domain normalized least mean square (NLMS) approach based on the subband GSC structure without the increase of complexity. Besides, the M-MAX algorithm, which is one of various selective coefficient updating methods, is employed in order to remarkably reduce the computational cost without decreasing the convergence quality. With the combination of these methods, we propose a computationally efficient wideband adaptive beamformer and verify its efficiency through a series of simulations.

This paper proposes the scheme which obtain the coefficients of TDL filter and two normalization algorithms among methods which get solution of equivalent Wiener-Hopf Equation in Gram-Schmidt algorithm. Compared to the conventional NLMS algorithm, normalizes with sum of power of inputs, the presented algorithms normalize using sums of eigenvalues. Using computer simulation, we perform an system identification in an unstable environment where two poles are located in near position outside unit circle. Consequently, the proposed algorithms get the coefficients of TDL filter in Gram-Schmidt algorithm recursively and show better convergence performance than conventional NLMS algorithm.

In a passive sonar, the improvement of detection performance by using noise cancellation is usually a important problem. In this paper, we have analyzed the own-ship noise cancellation in the two operation modes which are used in the HMS system. In the operator mode, an adaptive line enhancer(ALE) is applied to improve the tonal detection by using broadband noise cancellation and the normalized least mean square(NLMS) algorithm is applied to the design of an adaptive filter. The reference input that is correlated with a primary input can be used to remove the noise incident on the observation directionin the automatic mode. Computer simulations with real sea that data show that the proposed adaptive noise canceller has good performance in passive detection under HMS operation.

이전까지 많은 연구자들은 적응 신호처리(Adaptive Signal Process)를 이용한 잡음 제거 방법을 연구해 왔다. 그러나, 최근 발전하고 있는 멀티콥터는 프로펠러 모터의 RPM(Revolution Per Minute)이 실시간으로 변하기 때문에 적응 신호처리를 이용하여도 깔끔한 결과를 얻어 내기가 어렵다는 한계가 존재한다. 또한, 특정 주파수를 기준으로 형성되는 고조파(Harmonics)는 적응 알고리즘인 (N)LMS 를 이용한 예측에서 오차를 발생시키는 문제를 발생시킨다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 멀티콥터를 이용한 음향 취득에 대한 소음 저감 방법으로 회전 속도계(Tachometer), 콤 필터(Comb Filter), NLMS 알고리즘(Normalized Least Mean Square Algorithm)을 이용한 방법을 제안한다.

In this paper, a preventive transmission rate decision algorithm, called PTRD, is proposed for the transmission of live video over networks with dynamic bandwidth allocation capability. Frame analyzer predicts the bit-rates of future frames before encoding by analyzing the source information such as spatial variances and the degree of scene changes. By using the predicted bit-rates, transmission rate bounds are derived from the constraints of encoder and decoder buffers. To resolve the problem of renegotiation cost increment due to frequent renegotiations, the PTRD algorithm is presented to decide transmission rates considering the elapsed time after the recent renegotiation and the perceived video quality. From the simulation results, compared to the normalized LMS based method, PTRD is shown to achieve high channel utilization with low renegotiation cost and no delay violation.

In the affine projection algorithm(APA), the projection dimension depends on a number of projection basis and of elements of input vector used for updating of coefficients of the adaptive filter. The projection dimension is closely related to a convergence speed of the APA, and it determines computational complexity. As the adaptive filter approaches to steady state, convergence speed is decreased. Therefore it is possible to reduce projection dimension that determines convergence speed. In this paper, we proposed the variable dimension affine projection algorithm (VDAPA) that controls the projection dimension and uses the relation between variations of coefficients of the adaptive filter and convergence speed of the APA. The proposed method reduces computational complexity of the APA by modifying the number of projection basis on convergence state. For demonstrating the good performances of the proposed method, simulation results are compared with the APA and normalized LMS algorithm in convergence speed and computational quantity.

The active magnetic bearing (AMB) systems mounted in moving vehicles are exposed to the disturbances due to the base motion, often leading to malfunction or damage as well as inaccurate positioning of the systems. Thus, in the controller design of such AMB systems, robustness to base disturbances becomes an essential requirement. In this study, effective control schemes are proposed for the homo-polar AMB system, which uses permanent magnets for generation of bias magnetic flux, when it is subject to base motion, and its control performance is experimentally evaluated. The base motion of AMB system is modeled as the dynamic disturbances in the gravity and base excitation forces. To effectively compensate for the disturbances, the angle feed-forward controller based on the inverse dynamic model and the acceleration feed-forward controller based on the normalized filtered-X LMS algorithm are proposed. The performance test of the prototype AMB system is carried out, when the system is mounted on rate table. The experimental results show that the performance of the proposed controllers for the AMB system is satisfactory in compensating for the disturbances due to the base motion.
