The tension of warp from trawler and sea-floor contact can generate tilt and wake turbulence around otter boards. Preliminary measurements of otter board tilt and 3-D flow velocity during bottom trawl operations were taken using a vector instrument to investigate the effects of wake turbulence at the trailing edge of the otter board. Tilt data (i.e., yaw, pitch, and roll) at 1 Hz and flow data (velocities in the towing, lateral, and vertical directions) at 16 Hz were analyzed to determine their periods and amplitudes using global wavelet and peak event analyses. The mean period (${\pm}standard$ deviation) of the tilt from the peak event analysis ($5{\pm}2s$) was longer or double than that of flow velocity ($3{\pm}2s$). The two periods also had a significant linear relationship. The turbulence rate of flow was 30-50% at the trailing edge and was closely related to roll deviation. The frequency of phase difference ratios (i.e., peak time differences between tilts and flow periods) was significantly different from random occurrence in two trials, possibly due to side tidal effects. However, in the other trials, flow peaks were random, as shown by the even peak times between tilts and flows. Future studies should focus on reducing tilt variation, wake turbulence, and bottom contact to stabilize otter board motion.

A noise reduction technique to reduce background noise in corrupted voice is proposed. The proposed method is based on linear prediction and takes advantages of periodicity of voiced speech. A voiced sound is regarded as a periodic stationary signal in short time interval. Therefore, the current voice signal is correlated with the voice signal delayed by a pitch period. A linear predictor can estimate only the current signal correlated with the delayed signal. Therefore, the enhanced voice can be obtained as output of the linear predictor. Simulation results show that the proposed method is able to reduce the background noise.

On CELP type Vocoders G.723.1 6.3kbps/5.3kbps Dual Rate Speech Codec, which is developed for Internet Phone and videoconferencing, uses VAD(Voice Activity Detection)/CNG (Comfort Noise Generator) in order to reduce the bit rate in a silence period. In order to reduce the bit rate effectively in this paper, we first set the boundary condition of the energy threshold to prevent the consumption of unnecessary processing time, and use three decision rules to detect an active frame by energy, pitch gain and LSP distance. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm we use silence-inserted speech data with 0, 5, 10, 20dB of SNR. As a result when SNR is over 5dB, the bit rate is reduced up to about 40% without speech degradation and the processing time is additionally decreased.

화상회의 및 인터넷폰을 목적으로 개발된 G.723.1은 CELP계열 보코더와 같이 화자의 개성정보를 위해 피치를 전송하고 있다. 하지만 안정구간과 비 안정구간의 차이를 두지 않고 처리를 하기 때문에 비 안정구간, 특히 전이구간에서 정확한 피치검출이 이루어지지 않는 이유로 음질의 열하가 발생하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 한 프레임 구간에서 에너지의 기울기로 대략적인 피치이득을 구한 다음 안정구간일 때와 프레임 내의 에너지의 기울기가 문턱 값을 넘을 때에는 기존의 방법으로 피치를 구하고 그런지 않은 경우에는 에너지를 조정하여 피치를 다시 구하는 방법을 사용하였다. 실제 음성시료에 대해 기존의 방법과 제안한 방법을 비교하기 위해 SegSNR 과 MOS를 비교하였을 때 각각 1.302(dB)와 평균 0.045 MOS가 향상되었다.

음성합성에 있어서 음의 자연성을 합성시키는 문제는 크게 두가지로 나누어진다. 첫째는 합성음을 원음에 가깝게 구현하려는 합성방법 자체의 문제로, 언어 합성이 가지고 있는 일반적인 문제이다. 또 다른 문제는 운율에 관한 것으로 낱말 또는 문장 내에서의 운율에 따라 합성음의 자연성이 좌우된다. 이러한 운율에 따라 합성음의 자연성이 좌우된다. 이러한 운율의 조절에는 지속시간, 피치, 그리고 음의 세기 등이 이용된다. 켑스트럼을 이용하여 분석합성을 하는 경우, pole-zero 모델로 스펙트럼 포락을 근사하므로 원음에 충실하고, 필터계수와 구동정보를 분리하여 분석, 합성하므로 인위적인 운율의 조절이 용이하여 음성합성이 가지는 위의 두가지 문제를 해결하는데 적합하다고 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 켑스트럼을 이용하여 분석합성 시스템을 구성하였다. 음성 합성 과정에서, 운율 조절 파라미터중의 하나인 피치 주기의 변경에 따라 스펙트럼 포락의 왜곡에 대해 살펴보고, 왜곡을 최소화하는 방안을 제안한다.

In this paper, a transcoding algorithm for the Selectable Mode Vocoder (SMV) and the G.723.1 speech coder via direct parameter transformation is proposed. In contrast to the conventional tandem transcoding algorithm, the proposed algorithm converts the parameters of one coder to the Other Without going through the decoding md encoding process. The proposed algorithm is composed of four parts: the parameter decoding, line spectral pair (LSP) conversion, pitch period conversion, excitation conversion and rate selection. The evaluation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves equivalent speech quality to that of tandem transcoding with reduced computational complexity and delay.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the architectural manifesto and design works characteristics of Walter Gropius. He was the director of Weimar Bauhaus that one of the advanced artificial movements in the early modern period. The almost of the early modern movements was related to the radical ideology and the manifesto. Especially Bauhaus originated from manifesto of artists teaching group with architect Walter Gropius. Therefore, the category of the study pitch upon Bauhaus architectural manifesto - Bauhaus Manifesto and Programme(1919) - and the representative works of Walter Gropius - Fagus Factory(1911-14), Dessau Bauhaus Building(1925-26), Siedlung Berlin-Siemensstadt(1929-30) and Harvard Graduate Center(1949). The conclusions of the study as per the above mentioned pill pose are the dynamic integration by non-symmetry in cubic form (formal characteristics) and organic continuity by reciprocality in transparent space (spatial characteristics).

Train dynamics affects significantly safe and efficient operation of a train, especially during traction or braking period. Train dynamics is intrinsically complex due to many DOF motions in a three-dimensional space, and its behavior during the braking stage is too complex to understand and design an effective braking logic of the train. In this paper, we present a two-dimensional model with three DOF motion in a longitudinal, vertical, and pitch direction for the Hanvit 200 tilting train, which is efficient to analyze a braking performance. Furthermore, we analyze the braking logic and simulate the braking process of the Hanvit 200 tilting train using Simulink.

This study addresses the control problem of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) during the transition period when the flying mode changes from hovering to translational motion in the horizontal plane. First, we introduce a compensation algorithm that improves height stabilization and reduces altitude drop. The main principle is to incorporate pitch and roll measurements into the feedforward term of the altitude controller to provide a larger thrust force. To further improve altitude control, we propose the fuzzy logic controller that improves system behavior. Simulation results presented in the paper highlight the effectiveness of the proposed controllers.

Mutation consisted of abrupt and uncontrolled rises and falls in vocal pitch due to poor coordination of the laryngeal musculature associated with general bodily growth. The male voice drops about 10 semitones after mutation period but the female voice drops about 2 semitones. Symptoms of abnormal voice mutation are many variations in the voice. Sometimes the voice is a true falsetto, high and thin. The au thor experienced two male cases of prolonged mutation difficulty treated by pressure method. The result were excellent with simple maneuver. The author reported the result of treatment for two cases and reviewed the literatures.
