This paper investigates the EEG waveform distortions caused by the transient responses of various types of signal conditioning filters, which are generally introduced for automated analysis of EEG. This study explicitly simulates the filter responses to the typical EEG waveform models, and compares the distortions. The filter distortion effects are also illustrated with the experiments on real EEG signals.

This paper deals with an application of Teager Energy Operator (TEO) and Energy Separation Algorithm(ESA) to detect and determine various voltage waveform distortions like harmonics, inter-harmonics and frequency variation. Because the TEO and DESA algorithm was initially proposed for speech or communication analysis, its applications are limited to some types of waveform in the power quality analysis area. For example, an undistorted voltage signal is similar with a pure sinusoid. A voltage fluctuation is very similar with an amplitude-modulated signal, from the viewpoint of signal theory. And a continuous frequency variation is similar with a frequency-modulated signal, which is also known as a chirp signal. This paper is written to show that the TEO and DESA algorithm can be used for detecting occurrences of the representative waveform distortions and determining their instantaneous information of amplitude and frequency.

Automated analysis of EEG invariably requires the inclusion of a signal conditioning filter. This paper investigates the EEG waveform distortions caused by the transient responses of the various types of signal conditioning filters. This study explicitly simulates the filter responses to the typical EEG waveform models, and compares the distortions.

In human-mechanical cooperative systems, a significant issue is to improve the control performance and the maneuvering feeling of human operation. However, since it is not easy to evaluate the feeling of operators numerically, control engineers design controllers only through experience. Thus, in this paper, a new evaluation method for control performance of human-mechanical cooperative system is proposed based on the reserge waveform. Various distortions of waveform represent deteriorations of control performance and maneuvering feeling. In some cases, since there is a tradeoff between the control performance and the maneuvering feeling, it is difficult to compensate for both of them by usual feedback controllers. To overcome this situation, the two degrees of freedom control system is applied to human-mechanical cooperative system. Some numerical simulation results for an electric power steering system are shown to confirm the effectiveness of proposed control design method.

In this paper, we propose a new variable bit-rate speech coder based on the waveform interpolation concept. After the coder extracted all parameters, the amounts of the distortions between the current and the predicted parameters which are estimated by extrapolation using past two parameters are measured for all parameters. A parameter would not be transmitted unless the distortion exceeds the preset threshold. At the decoder side, the non-transmitted parameter is reconstructed by extrapolation with past two parameters used to synthesize signals. In this way, we can reduce 26% of the total bit rate while retaining the speech quality degradation below 0.1 PESQ score.

This paper proposes a harmonic reduction approach for a pulse width modulation (PWM) AC-AC converters using Bee Colony Optimization (BCO). The optimal switching angles are provided by BCO to minimize harmonic distortions. The sequences of the PWM switching angles are considered as a technical constraint. In this paper, simulation results from various optimization techniques including BCO, Genetic Algorithm (GA), and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) are compared. The test results indicate that BCO can provide a better solution than the others in terms of power quality and power factor improvement. Lastly, experiments on a 200W AC-AC converter confirm the performance of the proposed switching pattern in reducing harmonic distortions of the output waveform.

In this paper, we present a method of transmitting ECG signals in real-time mobile environment to be possible to implement the ubiquitous healthcare system. Because of the excessive amount of data transmission of ECG signals, it is necessary to propose a limitation to the real-time transmission. We propose a real-time electrocardiographic monitoring system based on the proposal of unusual waveform detection algorithm which detects the R-wave distortions from the arrhythmia ECG signals having unusual waveform of about 10% on average. It is very effective in terms of time and cost for medical staffs to monitor and analyze ECG signals for a long period of time. Monitoring unusual waveform by gradually adjusting the threshold values of potential and kurtosis makes the amount of data transmitted decrease and significance level of waveform to be enhanced. The unusual waveform detection algorithm is implemented with ubiquitous environment inter-working device client. It is applicable to ubiquitous healthcare system capable of real-time monitoring the ECG signal. While ensuring the mobility, it allows for real-time continuous monitoring of ECG signals.

To generate the plasma required in dry cleaning processes, the plasma chamber must be supplied with a high-quality AC voltage with a voltage of more than 1 kV and a frequency of 400 kHz. In the existing research, many methods to supply high power have been studied, but how to improve the quality of the power for high-quality plasma has been relatively little studied. In this paper, we propose a study to improve the quality of RF power circuit for high-quality plasma generation in dry cleaning method. Existing methods in the environment of full-bridge-based RF power circuits must perform PWM duty control in the light load region. This causes distortions in the waveform, resulting in poor power quality, which directly leads to poor plasma quality. To solve these problems, a half-bridge switching method is proposed and the improvement in waveform quality is verified. To verify the feasibility of the design and control algorithm proposed in this paper, an RF power circuit prototype is fabricated and the proposed design and control method is verified through simulation and actual experiments under dummy load.

Nonlinear loads including lighting fixtures generate harmonic currents and create distortions on the sinusoidal voltage of the power system. Harmonic field measurements have shown that the harmonic contents of a waveform varies with time. A cumulative probabilistic approach is the most commonly used method to solve time varying harmonics. In this paper the time varying harmonics of lighting loads are evaluated by international harmonic standards(IEC 61000-3-6).
