In this paper, the method of processing a blurred noisy image has been researched. The conventional method of processing signal has faluts which are slow convergence speed and long time-consuming process at the singular point and or in the ill condition. There is the process, the Gauss Seidel's method to remove these faults, but it takes too much time because it processed singnal repeatedly. For overcoming the faults, this paper shows a image restoration method which takes shorter than the Gauss-Seidel's by comparing the Gauss Seidel's with proposed alogorithm and accelerating convergence speed at the singular point and/or in the ill condition. In this paper, the conventional process method(Gauss-Seidel) and proposed optimal algorithm were used to get a standard image($256{\times}56{\times}bits$). and then the results are simulated and compared each other in order to examine the variance of MSE(Mean Square Error) by the acceleration parameter in the proposed image restoration. The result of the signal process and the process time was measured at all change of acceleration parameter in order to verify the effectveness of the proposed algorithm.

This paper presents a novel z-axis accelerometer with perfectly aligned vertical combs fabricated using the extended sacrificial bulk micromachining (extended SBM) process. The z-axis accelerometer is fabricated using only one (111) SOI wafer and two photo masks without wafer bonding or CMP processes as used by other research efforts that involve vertical combs. In our process, there is no misalignment in lateral gap between the upper and lower comb electrodes, because all critical dimensions including lateral gaps are defined using only one mask. The fabricated accelerometer has the structure thickness of $30{\mu}m$, the vertical offset of $12{\mu}m$, and lateral gap between electrodes of $4{\mu}m$. Torsional springs and asymmetric proof mass produce a vertical displacement when an external z-axis acceleration is applied, and capacitance change due to the vertical displacement of the comb is detected by charge-to-voltage converter. The signal-to-noise ratio of the modulated and demodulated output signal is 80 dB and 76.5 dB, respectively. The noise equivalent input acceleration resolution of the modulated and demodulated output signal is calculated to be $500{\mu}g$ and $748{\mu}g$. The scale factor and linearity of the accelerometer are measured to be 1.1 mV/g and 1.18% FSO, respectively.

In this paper, a differential-braking-based yaw moment control system was developed to guarantee robust performance against road bank angle. A new target yaw rate model was established by combining the signal from a lateral acceleration sensor and 2-DOF single track model. In addition, a disturbance observer was utilized to take into account parameter uncertainties in yaw dynamics and to improve robust performance of the controller. CARSIM, which is a multi-DOF vehicle dynamic simulation tool, was used to verify the performance of the proposed controller in various driving scenarios. The simulation results indicate that the stability of the vehicle was robustly maintained by the controller, which is characterized by the reflection of the signal of a lateral acceleration sensor signal and by the compensation of the errors in the model parameters via the disturbance observer.

The continuous active sonar technology is effective for detecting and tracking targets because of short target revisiting rate. Generalized Sinusoidal Frequency Modulation (GSFM) pulses suitable for continuous active sonar systems are known to be capable of obtaining high time-bandwidth product while maintaining the orthogonality between pulses. However, it is unknown how to calculate an appropriate length of time to correlate received GSFM pulses in the presence of a target with acceleration. In this paper, we propose a method to calculate the appropriate time length based on the correlation when matching the received signal in the continuous active sonar system using GSFM pulse. The proposed method calculates the correlation according to the acceleration of the target and calculates the signal processing length according to the correlation. It is shown that stable detection performance can be obtained when the signal processing length calculated by the proposed method through the level of the sidelobe is applied.

In this paper, we propose the new method to decrease the navigation error by measurement time synchronization error in RLG Trapping signal processing. There are two methods to eliminate the dither motion in RLG. One is the stripping signal processing method. Another is the trapping signal processing method. This two methods have various error sources in measurement output. We perform the error modelling and analysis for the measurement time synchronization error between angular rate from RLG and acceleration from accelerometer in the trapping signal processing method. And we verify the navigation performance through simulation and experiment. Results of simulation and experiment show that the proposed method is very effective in decreasing the navigation error.

In this study, we attempt to design a real-time autonomic nervous system(ANS) evaluation system usable during exercise using heart instantaneous frequency(HIF). Although heart rate variability(HRV) is considered to be a representative signal widely used ANS evaluation system, the R-peak detection process must be included to obtain an HRV signal, which involves a high sampling frequency and interpolation process. In particular, it cannot accurately evaluate the ANS using HRV signals during exercise because it is difficult to detect the R-peak of electrocardiogram(ECG) signals with exposure to many noises during exercise. Therefore, in this study, we develop the ground for a system that can analyze an ANS in real-time by using the HIF signal circumventing the problem of the HRV signal during exercise. First, we compare the HRV and HIF signals in order to prove that the HIF signal is more efficient for ANS analysis than HRV signals during exercise. Further, we performed real-time ANS analysis using HIF and confirmed that the exerciser's ANS variation experiences massive surges at points of acceleration and deceleration of the treadmill(similar to HRV).

The shock test of shipboard equipments is performed for the evaluation of the shock-resistant. capability by analyzing the maximum acceleration, the effective time duration and the shock response spectrum, etc. But some measured signals have impulsive noise and gaussian white noise because of the ambient noise, the acquisition equipment error and the transient movement of cables during the shock test. The improved transient signal analysis method which removes the noise of measured signal using the threshold policy of the median filter and the orthogonal wavelet coefficients is proposed. It was verified that the signal-to-noise ratio was improved about 30dB by the numerical simulation. And the shock response spectrum was extracted using the denoised shock response signal which was applied by this proposed method.

We have scanned the several seismic traces of earthquakes and blasts observed from the digital new type seismograph instruments of KMA from Jan. 2000 to Aug. 2000. From these data, good quality data which have high signal/noise ratio were selected and they were transformed into ascii data from binary data(mini-seed format). The hypo71 program and P-S was applied in order to determine the location of epicenter, origin time and the magnitude. From these data, the 18 earthquakes and 3 blasts, 207 seismic records consist of 359 directional components were calculated. Using theses ground acceleration data, acceleration, velocity, and displacement response spectrums of the structures were calculated and they could be represented in a picture by the form of tripartite response spectrum. In the result, response spectrums of the 359 directional components of the above seismic data records were obtained respectively.

In order to predict vibration trends occurred during vehicle drive, acceleration data was processed by using data processing algorithm with moving average and Hilbert transform. Specific mode constants of acceleration were obtained under various disturbance. Vehicle velocity, road condition, property of pointing structure were considered as factors which make change of vibration trend in vehicle dynamics. Results of signal processing were compared and analysed. Advanced performance of the timing selection algorithm from this study was verified by using simple equipment comparing with the deflection measurement laser system(Muzzle Reference System).
