MPEG Audio compression algorithm is the international standard for the digital compression of high quality audio using mechanism of the perceptual coding based on psychoacoustic masking. It is necessary to discuss the constraints on designing of common filter banks for MPEG-2 BC and MPEG-2 AAC decoder system, which is not Down yet, mapping audio signals from the time domain into the frequency domain. In this paper, we present an architecture of common synthesis filter whcih can be used for MPEG-2 BC and MPEG-2 AAC decoder using recursive structure. The proposed algorithm is based on recursive architecture that effectively performs common compulsion.

The thesis presents a dual audio decoder which can decode both AC-3 and MPEG-2 bitstream. The MPEG-2 synthesis processi s optimized via FFT to establish the common data path with AC-'3s. A dual audio decoder consists of a DSP core which performs the control-intensive part of each algorithm and a common synthesis filter which perfomrs the computation-intensive part. All the components of the dual audio decoder have been described in VHDL and simulated with a SYNOPSYS tool. The software modeling of the DSP core was used for functional validation. After being synthesized using 0.6 .mu.m-3ML technology standard cell, the dual audio decoder was simulated at gate-level with a COMPASS tool for hardware validation.

In this paper, we approach the problem of image filter design automation using a kind of intrinsic evolvable hardware architecture. For the purpose of implementing the intrinsic evolution process in a common FPGA chip and evolving a complicated digital circuit system-image filter, the design automation system employs the reconfigurable circuit architecture as the reconfigurable component of the EHW. The reconfigurable circuit architecture is inspired by the Cartesian Genetic Programming and the functional level evolution. To increase the speed of the hardware evolution, the whole evolvable hardware system which consists of evolution algorithm unit, fitness value calculation unit and reconfigurable unit are implemented by a commercial FPGA chip. The Celoxica RC1000 card which is fitted with a Xilinx Virtex xcv2000E FPGA chip is employed as the experiment platform. As the result, we conclude the terms of the synthesis report of the image filter design automation system and hardware evolution speed in the Celoxica RC1000 card. The evolved image filter is also compared with the conventional image filter form the point of filtered image quality.

본 논문에서는 MPEG-2 BC와 AAC의 복호화 과정 중 함성 필터링 과정의 알고리듬을 분석하여 공동된 구조로 연산을 수행한 수 있는 광용 합성 필터 구조에 대하여 논하였다. 제안된 공용 합성 필터 구조는 Regressive 구조를 이용하여 MPEG-2 BC와 AAC의 복호화를 효과적으로 공용 수행하도록 하였다. 제안한 구조는 FFT를 사용할 경우에 필요한 전처리 및 후처리 과정을 고려해주지 않아도 되고 복소수 연산이 아닌 실수연산이 되어 하드웨어 구조가 단순하게 된다. 또한 MPEG-2 AAC의 다양한 윈도우 변환에도 안정적으로 연산되는 구조임을 확인하였다.

In this paper, a low area timing synchronization structure for the IEEE 802.11a OFDM MODEM SoC is proposed. The timing synchronization block of the IEEE 802.11a OFDM MODEM SoC requires large implementation area. In the proposed timing synchronization structure, it is shown that the number of multiplication can be reduced by using the transposed direct form filter. Furthermore, implementation area of the proposed structure can be more reduced using CSD(Canonic Signed Digit) and Common Sub-expression Sharing techniques. Through Verilog-HDL coding and synthesis, it is shown that the 22.7 % of implementation area can be reduced compared with the conventional one.

In this paper, a low-area symbol timing offset synchronization structure for WLAN Modem is proposed. Using CSD(Canonic Signed Digit) coefficients and CSS(Common Sub-expression Sharing) technique for the filter implementation, efficient structure for multiplication block can be obtained. Function simulation for proposed structure is done by using the preamble with timing offset. Through Verilog-HDL coding and synthesis, it is shown that the proposed symbol timing offset synchronization structure can be implemented with low-area semiconductor.

Pre-emphasizing the speech compensates for falloff at high frequencies. The most common form of pre-emphasis is y(n)=s(n)-A${\cdot}$s(n-1), where A typically lies between 0.9 and 1.0 in voiced signal. And, this value reflects the degree of pre-emphasis and equals R(1)/R(0) in conventional method. This paper proposes a new flattening method to compensate the weaked high frequency components that occur by vocal cord characteristic. We used QMF(Quardrature Mirror Filter) to minimize the output signal distortion. After using the QMF to compensate high frequency components, flattening process is followed by R(1)/R(0) at each frame. Experimental results show that the proposed method flattened the weaked high frequency components effectively than auto correlation method. Therefore, the flattening algorithm will apply in speech signal processing like speech recognition, speech analysis and synthesis.

In this study, we report on successful attempt towards the synthesis of sulfur self-doped $g-C_3N_4$ by directly heating thiourea in air. The synthesized materials were characterized using UV-vis spectral technique, FT-IR, XRD and TEM analysis. Further, the obtained material shows an excellent detection of carcinogenic TNP(Tri nitro phenol) in the presence of 10-fold excess of various other common interferences. The strong inner filter effect and molecular interactions(electrostatic, ${\pi}-{\pi}$, and hydrogen bonding interactions) between TNP and the $S-g-C_3N_4$ Nano sheets led to the fluorescence quenching of the $S-g-C_3N_4$ Nano sheets with an excellent selectivity and sensitivity towards TNP compared to that of other nitro aromatics under optimal conditions and the detection limit calculated was found to be 6.324 nM for TNP. The synthesized nanocomposite provides a promising platform for the development of sensors with improved reproducibility and stability for ultra-sensitive and selective sensing of TNP.

Background : Surfactant protein A (SP-A) is important in the regulation of surfactant secretion, synthesis and recycling. SP-A has important roles in regulating surfactant metabolism as well as in determining surfactant's physical properties. Since systemic sepsis is one of the common causes of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and abnormalities in surfactant function have been described in ARDS, the authors investigated the effects of endotoxemia on the accumulation of mRNA encoding SP-A and SP-A protein content. Methods : Adult rats were given various doses of intraperitoneal endotoxin from Salmonella enteritidis and sacrificed at different times. SP-A mRNA was measured by filter hybridization method. Lung SP-A protein content was determined by double sandwich ELISA assay using a polyclonal antiserum raised in rabbits against purified rat SP-A. Results : 1) The accumulation of SP-A mRNA in the endotoxin treated group 24 hours after 2mg/kg and 5mg/kg endotoxin treatments was significantly increased 50.9% and 27.3%, respectively, compared to the control group (P<0.001, P<0.025). 2) The accumulation of SP-A mRNA 24 hours in the 5mg/kg endotoxin treated group was significantly increased by 26.5% compared to the control group (P<0.01). 3) Total amount of lung SP-A was not altered at 24 hours by various doses of treatment. Total lung SP-A content 144 hours after endotoxin administration was significantly decreased by 51.4% compared to the control group (P<0.01). Conclusions : The specific regulation of SP-A by various time course in vivo is evident. The late decline in SP-A protein content was unexpected and suggests that SP-A may be differentially regulated during lung inflammation. The functional significance of these alterations remains to be clarified.
