A planar, light-weight, and low-cost notch filter structure is required for the KSTAR ECEI (Electron Cyclotron Emission Imaging) system to protect the mixer arrays from spurious plasma heating power. Without protection, this heating power can significantly degrade or damage the performance of the mixer array. To protect mixer arrays, a frequency selective surface (FSS) structure is the suitable choice as a notch filter to reject the spurious heating power. The FSS notch filter should be located between the lenses of the ECEI system. This paper presents a 170 GHz FSS notch filter for the KSTAR ECEI sensor application. The design of such an FSS notch filter is based on the single-sided square loop geometry, because that makes it relatively insensitive to the incident angle of incoming wave. The FSS notch filter exhibits high notch rejection with low pass-band insertion loss over a wide range of incident angles. This paper also reviews the simulated and measured results. The proposed FSS notch filter might be implemented in other millimeter-wave plasma devices.

This paper presents some practical design issues that should be carefully considered when a notch filter is included in a linear feedback controller. A notch filter is generally used to compensate the effects of resonant modes that may result in poor performance. It is very common that the practical engineers prefer to add such a notch filter after having previously designed a feedback controller without the filter. It is known that the resulting performance by this approach is not seriously different from when a feedback controller is designed for a plant previously compensated by a notch filter. However, we will point out that there are some cases where both approaches have different performances. In order to show this, a low-order controller design using the partial model matching method has been applied to a linear time invariant (L Tn model. The results suggest that there is a tendency to achieve much better time responses in terms of reducing the overshoot and shortening the settling time, and in the frequency domain characteristics such as the sensitivity function and the stability margins when the design of a feedback controller after including a notch filter is carried out.

When Photovoltaic inverter is connected to grid and used as PVPCS (Photovoltaic Power Conditioning System), 120 Hz AC ripple occurs at the dc-link capacitor voltage. This AC ripple reduces the efficiency of PVPCS and shortens the lifetime of the capacitor. In this paper, we design a notch filter to remove AC ripple. As a result, the AC voltage ripple was removed from the dc link and the THD of the PVPCS output current with the notch filter was lowered. This notch filter is determined by the damping coefficient, the bandwidth coefficient, and the switching frequency. Among these, the switching frequency determines the switching loss and the size of the LC filter, and the PVPCS with the high switching frequency has a greater efficiency loss due to the switching loss than the efficiency improvement by the notch filter. Therefore, it is important to set the optimum switching frequency in the PVPCS with the notch filter applied. In this paper, THD and switching loss of PVPCS output current with notch filter are calculated through simulation, and cost function to calculate optimum switching frequency through data is proposed.

There are some studies to get rid of slice patterns in coronal and sagittal images by FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) and Notch filter. However, the use of a notch filter is the ringing effect according to the rapid frequency change occurs in common. Therefore, this study will be to evaluate the shape and effect of the notch filter. In addition, it is proposed a new notch filter design. Results of the study are as follows. First, Emission-Notch filter was relatively naturally correcting the cutting pattern. Second, Emission-Notch filter to use as Ringing effect is reduced relatively. The next through these findings and further research progress more completely removed the Ringing effect, and expects to reproduce the data close to the actual human body information.

Today is the Information age which Internet service acts a most important Information Source. So A Power Line Communication has been achieved to offer Internet service for Last-Mile area. And Research is achieved to frequence range from 30MHz to 80MHz for High-speed communication service. But, Power Line is not suitable for communication, so, electric wave is generated from flow of communication information. And the electric wave is interfered with Wireless Communication Service using the same frequence range. In this paper, we calculated a 3 steps and 8 steps dynamic Notch Filter to consider the bandwidth of interference signals based on ETSI standard for reduce of interference between Power Line Communication and Wireless Communication Service. And we applied a Notch Filter and verified the application performance from Spectrum and BER.

This paper presents a design and construction of IIR multiple notch filter by modifying the pole-zero placement with least square estimation to find the appropriate gain and pole positions for the filter within a unit circle in z-plane. The appropriated gain and pole position will render the controllable unit gain of filter magnitude. Algorithm design and system simulation are performed on MATLAB while the actual implementation is done on the TMS320C31 digital signal processing board.

GPS signal is vulnerable to intentional and unintentional interferences since it has a very weak signal power and its structure is well-known. Among the interference rejecting techniques, the ATF is being generally used as a pre-correlation technique. However, it does not have a design parameter relating to the notch width, resulting in the spectral loss around frequency of the interference. The IIR notch filter has a design parameter relating to the notch width and can generate a sharp notch for the CW interference. In this paper, an adaptive IIR notch filter is proposed and the performance is evaluated using software signal generator and real measurements.

This paper proposes a design of IIR notch filter with modified pole placements. The pole angle is derived from quadratic programming to find the appropriate pole position on the unit circle in z-plane in order to achieve the symmetry of the amplitude response. The simulation results are shown when compared with the conventional design technique. Moreover, it uses the TMS320C31 DSP chip for hardware implementation. Finally, the hardware implementation can be applied to removal of ECG baseline wander and elimination of AC power line interference in ECG signal.

The band-width of disk drive servo system is rapidly increasing for the robustness to external disturbance as the track density is increasing. The increase of the band-width may cause mechanical resonance of an actuator. In disk drive servo system, a notch filter is usually used to suppress the mechanical resonance of the actuator. However, the resonance frequency differs from drive to drive because of manufacturing tolerance and varies with temperature even within a single drive. The variation of resonance frequency degrades the suppression performance of the notch filter. In this paper, we present an adaptive digital notch filter that identifies the resonance frequency of the disk drive servo actutaor precisely and adjusts automatically its center frequency. For this, we design an adaptive FIR digital filter for the estimation of the resonance frequency. The estimation filter identifies the resonance frequency adaptively using the output signal generated from the servo system, which is excited with an excitation signal including all the expected resonance frequency components. We prove mathematically the convergence of the resonance frequency estimation filter. Furthermore, in order to demonstrate the practical use of our work, we present some experimental results using a commercially available disk drive.
