The filtration characteristics of $CYBAGFILTER^{(R)}$ unit with pleated filter bags were evaluated by comparing the performance of the unit with the lower part of cyclone shape with that of the unit with conventional lower part. Results from the test were also compared with those from the previous research with the $CYBAGFILTER^{(R)}$ in which round filter bags were installed. $CYBAGFILTER^{(R)}$ is the unit which combines the centrifugal separation mechanism and the fabric filtration mechanism in a single unit for efficient removal of particulate matters. The pleated filter bags are made of pleated fabric with an extension of the filtration area about 3 times compared with the conventional round filter bags. The results from the test using pleated filter bags showed an overall collection efficiency of over 99.9% regardless of the shape of lower part installed. When the lower part of cyclone shape was installed, the filter cleaning interval was over 2 times longer compared with that when the conventional lower part was installed. At the same conditions of filtration velocity and filter pressure drop, the $CYBAGFILTER^{(R)}$ with the lower part of cyclone shape, in which the pleated filter bags are installed, can be operated with a flow rate of round 3 times higher than that with conventional round filter bags.

TASS(Towed Array Sonar System) is a sonar system which tows the sensor array behind a platform. Array shape is generally assumed to be a straight line. But the array shape is often distorted by oceanic current or platform maneuvering which causes the performance loss of signal processing method like beamforming. So array shape estimation methods are needed. Typically the method based on Kalman filter using heading sensor is used. In practice, the measurement is corrupted by biases which are caused by rotation of the tow cable, varying magnetic fields and slowly varying stresses in the mechanical construction. Although they can't be calibrated but can be estimated. In this paper, we suggest the array shape estimation method based on Kalman filter compensating the sensor biases.

Since the vehicle is regarded as the third living space, the comfortable conditions are required in the passenger compartment. For this reason, customers are concerned about the filtering performances and the importance of filter media has been greatly placed. Therefore the dust holding capacity, the efficiency of these filter media (dry paper, wet paper, non-woven) and the configuration of air filter for vehicle were measured in this study. The following results were obtained on the basis of air filter test. It shows that the thickness and poresize of filter media should be lower for the higher efficiency. The measurement result shows that the performance of round shape filters are higher than the square shape filters. The dust holding capacity of the wet paper and the non-woven paper is higher than the dry paper. As a result, this research can provide an important design parameter and product guidance of the intake air filter for vehicular engine.

Median filtering is a nonlinear method which is known to be effective in removing impulse noise while preserving local image structure relatively well. However, it could still suffer the smearing phenomena of edges and fine details into neighbors due to undesirable influence from the pixels whose values are far off from the true value of the pixel at hand. This drawback mainly comes from the fact that median filters typically employ a regular shape window for collecting the pixels used in the filtering operation. In this paper, we propose a median filtering method which employs an irregular shape filter window in collecting neighboring pixels around the pixel to be denoised. By employing an irregular shape window, we can achieve good noise suppression while preserving image details. Experimental results have shown that our approach is superior to regular window-based methods.

This paper proposes a robust object tracking algorithm using object features and on-line learning based particle filter for mobile robots. Mobile robots with a side-view camera have problems as camera jitter, illumination change, object shape variation and occlusion in variety environments. In order to overcome these problems, color histogram and HOG descriptor are fused for efficient representation of an object. Particle filter is used for robust object tracking with on-line learning method IPCA in non-linear environment. The validity of the proposed algorithm is revealed via experiments with DBs acquired in variety environment. The experiments show that the accuracy performance of particle filter using combined color and shape information associated with online learning (92.4 %) is more robust than that of particle filter using only color information (71.1 %) or particle filter using shape and color information without on-line learning (90.3 %).

A new technique for image restoration using Weighted cross-shaped median filter with edge-detection algorithm is proposed in this paper. It consists of simple hypothesis test for edge-detection, and makes use of the weighted cross-shape window. This method is applied to noise corrupted image and its results are compared with those of median filters. As for the experimental result, method of weighted cross-shape median filter is superior to other median filters.

Granular bed filters are widely used to remove particulate matter in flue gas and are filled with various shapes of packing material. The packing material plays an important role in determining the overall collection performance, such as pressure drop and collection efficiency. The pressure drop of a granular bed filter has been calculated using the Ergun equation, while the collection efficiency has been predicted using the log-penetration equation based on the single sphere theory. However, a prediction equation of collection efficiency for a granular bed filter filled with non-spherical packing materials has not been suggested yet. Therefore, in this study, three different shapes of packing materials (sphere, cylinder, and irregular) were prepared to propose a prediction equation. The pressure drop and collection efficiency in a granular bed filter filled with each shape of packing material were measured experimentally and compared with theoretically predicted values. We found that experimentally measured pressure drops matched well with values theoretically predicted using the Ergun equation considering the shape factor. However, experimental collection efficiencies were higher than theoretical ones predicted by the log-penetration equation using the single sphere theory. We modified the log-penetration equation by employing a shape factor and found a good relationship between experimental and theoretical collection efficiencies.

The aim of this thesis, when water permeates dam, is to study the shape of seepage line and seepage quantity. As for the process, various sand model dams of same capacity were constructed in the water tank : they are a central, middle, inclined, up and down stream point of which is paralled, and filter-installed types. And the slope of seepage line and seepage quantity in these various models for experiment were measured, observed data were analyzed, and several formulas which already published were compared and examined. As for the shape of seepage line, the relation between upstream water level and exit: slope of seepage line, near the entrance and exit point, geometrically similar model, and the shape of seepage line filter-installed were examined. As regards to the seepage quantity, several formulas which already published and testing result values were compared and examined, and relation with the slope of seepage line, the seepage quantity, the slope of upstream point, and the upstream water level were mutually studied. Particulary, when horizontal filter was installed, propriety of the existing formulas for effective filter length w as examined, and the relative position of exit point in various. conditions was also studied.

본 논문에서는 WCDMA 환경에서의 수신기 Filter에 의한 SNR개선에 대해 연구하였다 WCDMA환경에서 여러 사용자의 다중경로 신호들이 더해져서 수신되는데 원하는 사용자에 동기를 맞춰 chip rate의 정수배로 sampling하고 수신기 필터를 통과시킴으로써 배율 정도에 따른 이득을 얻게 된다. 하지만 송신 신호의 pulse shape에 따라 이득이 달라진다. pulse shape에 따라 필터에 대한 윈하는 사용자 신호와 AWCN의 아득이 서로 달라지고 SNR이득이 포화되는 시점도 다르기 때문이다. 따라서 pulse shape에 따라 최적의 SNR이득을 얻기 위한 최적의 sampling 배출을 구할 수 있다. 분 논문에서는 signal shape에 따른 SNR 이득에 대해 해석식 도출 및simulation을 통해 최적 수신기 구조를 도출하였다.
