  • Classification of extracellularly recorded action potential into each unit is an important procedure for further analysis of spike trains as point process. We utilize feedforward neural network structures, multilayer perceptron and radial basis function network to implement spike classifier. For the efficient training of classifiers, nonlinear energy operator that can trace the instantaneous frequency as well as the amplitude of the input signal is used. Trained classifiers shows successful operation, up to 90% correct classification was possible under 1.2 of signal-to-noise ratio.

  • Electrogastrography(EGG) is the technique by which gastric myoelectrical activity is recorded noninvasively, from electrodes on the abdominal skin. This gastric myoelectrical activity consists of two type signals : 1) slow wave, which is gastric basal rhyemic activity and is not closely related to gastric contraction 2) spike wave, which is generated only during contraction of the stomach. Despite many attempts made over the decades, analysis of surface EGG has not led to identification of the spike wave (gastric contraction) that would help the clinician to diagnose functional or organic diseases of the stomach. In this paper, we propose a feasible methods to detect gastric contraction by frequency-domain signal analysis of surface ECG signal. Synchronous measurement of gastric pressure by the antropyloric manometry with surface EGG established feasibility of this method.

  • The objective of this study is to analyze the performance of digital low-pass differentiators(LPD) and then to provide a method to select effective LPD filter, for detecting spikes of surface motor unit action potentials(MUAP). The successful spike detection of MUAPs is a first important step for EMG signal decomposition. The performances of simple and weighted LPD(SLPD and WLPD) filters are analyzed based on different filter lengths and varying MUAPs from simulated surface EMG signals. The SNR improving coefficient and effective MUAP duration range from the analysis results can be used to select proper LPD filters under the varying conditions of surface EMG.

  • The detection of neural spike activity is a technical challenge that is very important for studying many types of brain function. On temporal recordings of firing events or interspike interval series of neural signal, spike pattern correspond to action will be repeated in the presence of background noise and they need to be detected to develop higher applications. We will introduce new method to find these patterns in raw multitrial data and is tested on surrogate data sets with the main target to get meaningful analysis of electrophysiological data from microelectrode arrays (MEA).

  • Most of Sea Surveillance Radar(SSR)s which are used in Vessel Traffic Service are Magnetron-based Non-Coherent Method and use the pulse integration technique having a signal to noise ratio enhancement function to satisfy a surveillance performance about target. Especially, Pulse Integration technique has an effect on target serveillance performance through signal to noise ratio, in addition, has an effect to improve a signal interference and noise spike. In this paper, we have a simulation experiment by using MATLAB simulation tool for appling a pulse integration technique in VTS system using a Non-Coherent radar, and verify an optimum pulse integration technique through out performance analysis between frequently use pulse integration techniques.

  • The abnormal sound of generator frame is analyzed by a acceleration signal. The spike-like time signal is major characteristics of impacting force. The distributional map of vibration level is one of visualization method. With map, noise source was easily detected. After de_assembly of generator, loose part of internal component is the source of impact force by mechanical movement of stator inherently. In contact condition of part with clearance, the level of impact signal is different at each revolution and impact signal did not happens periodically.

  • A digital system has been designed for the detection of abnormal spikes appearing in the epileptic patient's electroencephalogram(EEG). The detection is based on the waveform characteristics of spikes, such as the large slope, the sharpness of the apex, and the time duration of the spike. After the patient's data are collected and processed suing a minicomputer and A/D converter, the computer algorithms recognize the spikes based on the parameters representing the above waveform characteristics.

  • A new EMG signal processing algorithm for SMUAP pattern classification is proposed. It checks the combination and regularity of ISI using a spike counter as a decision making routine, and performs SMUAP waveform alignment in frequency domain and selects spikes through FIR filtering. As a result, with the EMG signals recorded during 5 seconds at 10-50% MVC force level, the SMUAP ranged from five to nine units were classified and identification rate is greater than 55 percent using a concentric needle electrode. In the IBM PC/AT the processing time typically required 2 minutes.

  • We introduce a new visible light communication (VLC) method in which three-level return-to-zero (RZ) modulation is used for flicker-free transmission. In the VLC transmitter, the three-level RZ modulation ensures that the average optical power is constant; thus, a flicker-free light-emitting diode (LED) light is achieved. In the VLC receiver, a resistor-capacitor high-pass filter is used for generating spike signals, which are used for data recovery while eliminating the 120 Hz optical noise from adjacent lighting lamps. In transmission experiments, we applied this method for wireless transmission of an air quality sensor message using the visible light of an LED array. This configuration is useful for the construction of indoor wireless sensor networks for air pollution monitoring using LED lights.
