  • This paper proposes an auto-tuning method of feedforward signal in boiler control of thermal power plants by using the neural network. The neural network produces an optimal feedforward signal by tuning the weights of the network. The weights are adapted effectively by using the teaching signal of PI control output. The proposed method was evaluated based on a detailed simulator which expressed non-linear characteristics of the 600 MW actual thermal power plant at load chaning operations, showed effectiveness in the learning of the weights of the neural network, and gave an accurate control performance in the temperature control of the system. Through the evaluation, the proposed method was proved to be effectively applicable to the actual thermal plants as the automatic adjustment tool.

  • This paper describes signal attenuation characteristics as splicing the output on LVDT for stability and reliability of switching mechanism, which is developed to use common signal between FLCC and EDFLCC, on T-50 aircraft. The method of test is classified a Pspice simulation and an actual hardware evaluation. The difference of error margin for two methods is 10times, the latter higher. The result in this experiment shows that the signal attenuation as splicing the output on LVDT doesn't affect and the static error margin is 53% for develope the EDFLCC.

  • Scanning Acoustic Microscope (SAM) is used as an important nondestructive test tool in semiconductor reliability evaluation and failure analysis. However, inspections of chip attach adhesive interface fer thin chip has proven difficulty as the reflected signals from the chip top and bottom are superimposed. In this paper, in order to overcome this difficulty, a new signal processing method based on the deconvolution technique combined with the wavelet transform is proposed. The wavelet transform complements a disability of deconvolution technique of which performance largely decreases when the waveform of target signal is not identical to that of reference signal. Performances of the proposed method are demonstrated by through computer simulations using model signal and experiments for the fabricated semiconductor samples, and satisfactory results are obtained.

  • The vibration signals of driving parts of electric train are distorted its signal patterns due to the impact components, which occurs when wheel passes rail joints. An elimination method of the impact components is investigated using adaptive signal processing technique in this study. The result shows that adaptive interference canceling method seems to be more effective than line enhancement technique. The application of adaptive interference canceling method to the signal measured at bogie shows that the extractions of the signals of driving parts of traction motor, reduction gear, and axle bearing are successful. Therefore, only the signals of bogie, which is the place to attach an accelerometer easily, is sufficient for the fault diagnosis and the safety evaluation of electric train. Also, adaptive interference canceling method can be applicable to evaluate the performance of vibration isolation between bogie and car body and to investigate the characteristics of indoor sound.

  • The research for the classification of the natural defects in welding zone is performd using the neuro-pattern recognition technology. The signal pattern recognition package including the user's defined function is developed to perform the digital signal processing, feature extraction, feature selection and classifier selection, The neural network classifier and the statistical classifiers such as the linear discriminant function classifier and the empirical Bayesian calssifier are compared and discussed. The neuro-pattern recognition technique is applied to the classificaiton of such natural defects as root crack, incomplete penetration, lack of fusion, slag inclusion, porosity, etc. If appropriately learned, the neural network classifier is concluded to be better than the statistical classifiers in the classification of the natural welding defects.

  • In this paper, we propose a new method for artificial bandwidth extension of narrow-band signal in frequency domain. In the proposed method, a narrow-band signal is decomposed into excitation signal and spectral envelope, which are extended independently in frequency domain. The excitation signal is extended such that low-band harmonic structure is maintained in high band, and the spectral envelope is extended based on sub-band energy using NMF. Finally, the spectral phase is determined based on signal correlation between frames in time domain, resulting in the final wide-band signal. The subjective evaluation verified that the wide-band signal generated by the proposed method has a higher quality than the original narrow-band signal.

  • In this paper, Coordinated Semi-Actuated Signal Control algorithm was developed and evaluated. According to the analysis of simulation, the coordinated semi-actuated signal control led to reduced vehicle delay as the difference of traffic volume between major and minor streets was getting bigger. But when there was relatively high traffic volume, or the equivalent amount of traffic volume on major and minor streets, optimized pre-timed signal control was verified to lower delay times compared to coordinated semi-actuated signal control; however, it might increase pedestrian delay. Therefore, the coordinated semi-actuated signal control should be implemented at intersections where traffic volume is relatively low.
