All physical data in the real world are nonstationary signals that have the time varying statistical characteristics. Although few algorithms suitable to process the nonstationary signals have ever been suggested, these are treated the nonstationary signals under the assumption that the nonstationary signal is a piece-wise stationary signal. Recently, statistical analysis algorithms for the nonstationary signal have concentrated so much interest. In this paper, nonstationary EMG signals are mapped onto the orthogonal wavelet transform domain so that the eigenvalue spread of its autocorrelation matrix could be more smaller than that in the time domain. Then the model in the wavelet transform domain and an algorithm to estimate the model parameters are suggested. Also, an test signal generated by a white gaussian noise and the EMG signal are identified, and the algorithm performance is considered in the sense of the mean square error and the evaluation parameters.

In case of a single input single output (SISO) system with a nonlinear term, a signal compression method is useful to identify a system because the equivalent impulse response of linear part from the system can be extracted by the method. However even though the signal compression method is useful to estimate uncertain parameters of the system, the method cannot be directly applied to a unique system with hysteresis characteristics because it cannot estimate all of the two different dynamic properties according to its motion direction. This paper proposes a signal compression method with a pre-processor to identify a unique system with two different dynamics according to its motion direction. The pre-processor plays a role of separating expansion and retraction properties from the system with hysteresis characteristics. For evaluating performance of the proposed approach, a simulation to estimate the assumed unknown parameters for an arbitrary known model is carried out. A motion platform with several single-rod cylinders is a representative unique system with two different dynamics, because each single-rod cylinder has expansion and retraction dynamic properties according to its motion direction. The nominal constant parameters of the motion platform are experimentally identified by using the proposed method. As its application, the identified parameters are applied to a design of a sliding mode controller for the simulator.

Acoustic emission(AE) technique has been applied to not only mechanical property testing but also on-line monitoring of the entire structure or a limit zone only. Although several AE devices have already been developed for on-line monitoring, the price of these systems is very high and it is difficult for the field to apply yet. In this study, we developed a specially designed PC-based leak detection system using A/D board. In this paper, AE technique has been applied to detect leak for heat exchanger by analyzing the characteristics of signal obtained from leak. It was confirmed that the characteristics of the signal generated by the turbulence of gas in the heat exchanger is narrow band signal having between 130-250kHz. Generally, the amplitude of leak signal is increased as the leak size increasing, but showed no significant change at frequency characteristic. Leak source location can be found by determining for the paint of highest signal amplitude by comparing with several fixed sensors. In this paper, AE results are compared with the PC-based leak detection system using A/D board.

지금까지 퓨리에 변환이 신호처리법으로 가장 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나, 이 방법은 신호의 주파수성분이 시간에 대하여 어떻게 변화하는지를 표현하지 못한다. 따라서, 최근 이와 같이 비정상신호를 표현하지 못하는 퓨리에 변환의 단점을 보완하여, 신호의 시간과 주파수에 대한 정보를 동시에 표현할 수 있는 시간-주파수 해석법들이 개발되기 시작하였다. 본 연구에서는 인공열화된 SUS 316강의 초음파신호를 시간-주파수 해석법으로 분석하였다. 특히, 단시간 퓨리에 변화법과 위그너 빌 분포법을 이용하여 초음파 신호의 주파수 성분과 특성을 분석하였다.

Firmness is very important factor to evaluate the freshness and ripeness among the various factors, in concerning about the melon quality. This study was carried out to develop the technique using impact signal to measure the melon firmness nondestructively. Results of analyzing impulse signals of melons having different firmness levels showed that the firmness of melon affected various impulse responses including amplitude, transmitted time, maximum peak frequency, firmness index 1 ($f^2m$), and firmness index 2 ($f^2m^{2/3}$). Impulse signal amplitude was the best indicator to predict the firmness of melon because of a strong corelation ($R^2\;=\;0.9071$). Firmness index 1, firmness index 2, maximum peak frequency, and normalized transmitted time were also possible indicators with acceptable correlation values.

In this paper, a new precharge type PFD for fast locking time of PLL is suggested. It is realized by inserting NMOS transistor and inverter into the precharge part of PFD for isolating the reset of the Up signal from the feedback signal. The new precharge type PFD generates the Up signal while the feedback signal is fixed at a high level. Therefore the new PFD output is increased than the conventional precharge type PFD output. As a result of the increased PFD output, fast locking of PLLs is achieved. Additionally, with control the falling time of the inverter, the dead-zone is reduced and the jitter characteristics are improved. The whole characteristics of PFD and PLL are simulated by using HSPICE. Simulation results show that the dead-zone is 20ps and the locking time of PLL using the new PFD is 38ns at the 350MHz frequency of referecne signal. This value is quite small compared with conventional PFD.

When a vibration data for a rotating machine such as a pump or a compressor is concerned, the frequency fluctuation of the energy contents at an instant time may provide useful information on understanding the vibration characteristics of the rotating machinery, rather than the averaged energy distribution along the frequency axis. Especially, when a periodic signal has different spectral contents, the approach to use the averaged frequency distribution, called the normal frequency analysis, may not be appropriate to extract vibration source characteristics of the structure. This paper introduces a way to analyze the signal based on an instant time. In order to evaluate the performance of the various approach, the investigatation compares three different algorithms which are frequently implemented in the instantaneous frequency analysis. Also for the noise effect embodied in the true signal, various cases for different SN ratio have been examined. The result shows that the noise level is crucial to evalute the instantaneous frequency analysis. In order to implement the instantaneous frequency analysis, the extraction of the relevant information from the measured signal should have the high S/N ratio, i, e., 40 dB or above.

선박의 수중방사소음을 최소화하기 위해서는 주요 소음원인 탑재장비, 추진계통 및 구조물의 전달과정 등에 의해 발생되는 각각의 소음특성 규명이 이루어져야 한다. 그러나 선박의 운항시 계측된 신호는 다중의 소음원과 많은 전달경로에 의해 신호가 중첩되어 발생되고, 소음원과 전달함수를 계측할 수 없는 경우가 많다. 이 논문에서는 캡스트럼 신호처리를 이용한 계측된 응답신호로부터 각각의 소음원과 전달함수 특성을 분리 추출할 수 있는 시험분석기법을 제시하고, 제시된 기법을 수치계산 및 가진실험에 적용하여 검증하고 실제 선박에 적용하여 유용함을 보인다.

Ar, $N_2$, and He are the conventional kind of shield gas that are used for laser welding. Many researches on the impact of laser welding shield gas have been done, and it is on going until now. However, there are few studies that analyze the changes and differences of the plasma emission signal. Therefore, in this study, we evaluated the change in the penetration characteristics according to the type of shield gas during fiber laser welding impacts to the plasma signal. As a result, if was checked that the difference in molecular weight of Ar, $N_2$, and He affects to the amount of spatter, and also found that the measured plasma radiation signal changes similar to the order of the molecular weight of the gases. Especially, clear change on the signal intensity per each shield gas was measured through RMS, and found that the shield gas was nothing to do with the FFT analyzed result.
