A frequency-domain, system-identification method using a binary multifrequency signal was developed to find the transfer function between smoke intensity and throttle position in a diesel engine. This paper describes the simulation study performed to test the identification method developed. With an assumption of a diesel operation in a limited region about the normal operating state, the linear theory was adopted. Because that air fuel ratio is one of the most important operating variables causing smoke production in diesel combustion, single-input and single-output model was adopted.

This paper presents a new comparison method for haze-removal algorithms in next-generation automotive systems. Compared to previous peak signal-to-noise ratio-based comparisons, which measure similarity, the proposed modulation transfer function-based method checks sharpness to select a more suitable haze-removal algorithm for lane detection. Among the practical filtering schemes used for a haze-removal algorithm, experimental results show that Gaussian filtering effectively preserves the sharpness of road images, enhancing lane detection accuracy.

Propagation of electromagnetic wave in the water or underground is very difficult because of the conductivity of the propagation materials. In this case, we usually use acoustic signal as ultrasonic but, it is not easy to transfer long distance with coherent method because of time varying multipath, doppler effect, and attenuations. So, we use noncoherent method as FSK to communicate between long distances. But, as the propagation speed of acoustic sound is very slow, the BW of the channel is narrow. It is very hard to guaranty the enough speed of communication like digital image data. In this paper, we proposed a new data communication protocol which can transmit multi-bit digital data with every single ping, and improve the data communication speed in the water.

There have been many studies to visualize the vibration and noise of rotary compressor. Most of these studies assumed that the signal is stationary and the time-averaged signal is used for visualization. However, the noise and vibration signals generated during one cycle of crank shaft vary continuously. In this paper, the noise and vibration of rotary compressor which vary continuously are visualized by short time fourier transform method. The location of source and the transfer path of vibration and noise at arbitrary frequencies, which can not be visualized by averaged signal, can be visualized clearly.

Dynamic analysis and compensation design for an asymmetrical half bridge do-dc converter are presented. A small-signal model is developed using the averaging method. Based on the proposed small-signal average model, the open loop transfer functions of the power stage were obtained and used for the compensation design. All theoretical predictions are validated by experiments on a prototype converter.

B.Widrow established fundamental relations between the least-mean-square (LMS) algorithm and the digital Fourier transform［1］. By extending these relations, we proposed the short time spectra analysis system using the LMS algorithm［2]. In that paper, we used the normal LMS algorithm on the thought of dealing with only real analytical signal. This algorithm minimizes the real mean-square by recursively altering the complex weight vector at each sampling instant. But, the short time spectra analysis sometimes deals with the complex signal that is outputted from complex analog filter. So, in order to optimize and develop this methods, furthermore it is necessary to derive an algorithm for the complex analytical signal. In this paper, we first discuss the new adaptive system for the spectra analysis using the complex LMS algorithm and then derive convergence condition, time constant of coefficient adjustment and frequency resolution by extending the discussion. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is experimentally demonstrated by applying it to the measurement of transfer performance on complex analog filter.

The characteristics of vibration and sound signals which occurs at the driving system of electric train are investigated in this study since the vibration of driving system is one of the main sources of vibration and sound in electric train. The vibration signals are changed its signal patterns during the transmission from the source to passengers due to noise or several unknown factors. To avoid the complexity of actual signals of electric train, signals from experimental apparatus of motor/gear driving system are analyzed to find the appropriate method of analysis and to characterize the signal patterns. The used methods are waterfall diagram, transfer function and modal analysis. The results shows that the vibration signals are usually originated from motor bearing and gear meshing and these signals are transmitted to bottom or bogie. Also, the sound signal is similar to the vibration of bottom or bogie, but it is not so clear to figure out the source of vibration.

The modulation bandwidth of a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA) is limited by carrier lifetime. Therefore, it is hard to directly modulate an RSOA with high-speed electrical signals. We theorize that an optical filter can act as an optical equalizer, compensating for the narrow bandwidth limitation imposed by the RSOA. By modeling a time-varying RSOA with a modified transfer matrix method (TMM), we simulated 25 Gbps operation of an RSOA with optical filtering effects. We investigated the impact of detuning the center wavelength of the optical filter on the modulation of an RSOA. The numerical results show that it is possible to modulate an RSOA with an optical filtering effect at 25 Gbps without electronic equalization or digital signal processing.

This paper describes three methods for the estimation of the impulse reponse in an indoor acoustic transfer system which rather has long reverberation time by the cross spectrum. The first method, which is the conventional one, will use the white noise as the source signal. Therefore, the very long time window data and numerous number of DFT are necessary for this estimation. The second method has been disigned in order to shorten the length of time window of the first method by using a burst of noise as the source signal. The third method which will be suggested in this paper uses too types of definite signal with short duration time of the source signal. According to the view point of computation capacity, and estimation accuracy of the impulse response, the compared experimental results show that the third method will be better than the others.

It is well known that the general metals have a lot of grain boundaries. The grain boundaries play a negative role to increase the resistivity and to decrease the conductivity. The small resistivity and the large conductivity have been a goal of the material scientists, and no signal noise, perfect signal transfer, and the realization of the real sound are the dream of electronic engineers and audio manias. Generally, oxygen free copper (OFC) and Ohno continuous casting (OCC) copper cables have been used for the purpose of the precise signal transfer and low noise. However they still include a lot of grain boundaries. In our study, we have grown the single crystal by the Czochralski method and succeeded to produce single crystal wires from the crystal in the dimension of $0.5{\times}0.5{\times}2500mm$. The produced wire still possesses very good single crystal properties. We observed the structure of the wire, and measured the resistance and impedance. Glow Discharge Spectrometer (GDS) was used for analyzing the compositions of copper single crystals and commercial copper. Current-Voltage curve, resistance, total harmonic distortion and speaker frequency response were measured for comparing electrical and acoustic properties of two samples.
