Recent years, explosive welding structures have been widely used in many engineering fields. The bonding state detection of explosive welding structures is significant to prevent unscheduled failures and even catastrophic accidents. However, this task still faces challenges due to the complexity of the bonding interface. In this paper, a new method called dual-tree complex wavelet transform based permutation entropy (DTCWT-PE) is proposed to detect bonding state of such structures. Benefiting from the complex analytical wavelet function, the dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT) has better shift invariance and reduced spectral aliasing compared with the traditional wavelet transform. All those characters are good for characterizing the vibration response signals. Furthermore, as a statistical measure, permutation entropy (PE) quantifies the complexity of non-stationary signals through phase space reconstruction, and thus it can be used as a viable tool to detect the change of bonding state. In order to more accurate identification and detection of bonding state, PE values derived from DTCWT coefficients are proposed to extract the state information from the vibration response signal of explosive welding structure, and then the extracted PE values serve as input vectors of support vector machine (SVM) to identify the bonding state of the structure. The experiments on bonding state detection of explosive welding pipes are presented to illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Together with the GPS-based approach, geo-location through mobile communication networks is a key technology for location-based service. To save the cost, most geo-location system is implemented on the existed network service, which has a cellular structure. Still, multilateration is limited in cellular structure because it is difficult for the mobile terminal to acquire distance measurements from multiple base stations. This low hearability in the receiver is caused by co-channel interference and multipath environment. Therefore, hearability enhancement is necessary for multilateration under multipath and interference environment. Former time domain based hearability methods were designed for real signals. However, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal, which its usage has been increased in digital wireless communication, is a complex signal. Thus, different hearability enhancement method is needed for OFDM signals. This paper proposes a hearability enhancement method for forward-link multilateration using OFDM signals, which employ interference cancellation and multipath mitigation. A novel interference cancellation and multipath mitigation strategy for complex-valued OFDM signals is presented that has an iterative structure. Simulation results show that the proposed multilateration method provides the user's position with an accuracy of less than 80m through the mobile WiMAX cellular network in multipath environment.

Modern production systems are very complex by request of automation, and failure modes that occur in thisautomatic system are very various and complex. The efficient fault diagnosis for these complex systems is essential for productivity loss prevention and cost saving. Traditional fault diagnostic system which perforns sequential fault diagnosis can cause catastrophic failure during diagnosis when fault propagation is very fast. This paper describes the Real-time Intelligent Multiple Fault Diagnosis System (RIMFDS). RIMFDS assesses current machine condition by using sensor signals. This system deals with multiple fault diagnosis, comprising of two main parts. One is a personal computer for remote signal generation and transmission and the other is a host system for multiple fault diagnosis. The signal generator generates various faulty signals and image information and sends them to the host. The host has various modules and agents for efficient multiple fault diagnosis. A SUN workstation is used as a host for multiple fault modules and agents for efficient multiple fault diagnosis. A SUN workstation is used as a host for multiple fault diagnosis and graphic representation of the results. RIMFDS diagnoses multiple faults with fast fault propagation and complex physical phenomenon. The new system based on multiprocessing diagnoses by using Hierarchical Artificial Neural Network (HANN).

본 논문은 유한체(finite fields)에서 압축센싱(compressed sensing) 프레임워크를 살펴본다. 하나의 측정 샘플은 센싱행렬의 행과 희소 신호 벡터와의 내적으로 연산되며, 본 논문에서 제안하는 확률적 희소 신호 복원 알고리즘을 이용하여 그 압축센싱의 해를 찾고자 한다. 지금까지 압축센싱은 실수(real-valued)나 복소수(complex-valued) 평면에서 주로 연구되어 왔지만, 이와 같은 원신호를 처리하는 경우 이산화 과정으로 정보의 손실이 뒤따르게 된다. 이에 대한 연구배경은 이산(discrete) 신호에 대한 희소 신호를 복원하고자 하는 노력으로 이어지고 있다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 프레임워크는 센싱행렬로써 코딩 이론에서 사용된 LDPC(Low-Density Parity-Check) 코드의 패러티체크 행렬을 이용한다. 그리고 본 연구에서 제안한 확률적 복원 알고리즘을 이용하여 유한체의 희소 신호를 복원한다. 기존의 코딩 이론에서 발표한 LDPC 복호화와는 달리 본 논문에서는 희소 신호의 확률분포를 이용한 반복적 알고리즘을 제안한다. 그리고 개발된 복원 알고리즘을 통하여 우리는 유한체의 크기가 커질수록 복원 성능이 우수한 결과를 얻었다. 압축센싱의 센싱행렬이 LDPC 패러티체크 행렬과 같은 저밀도 행렬에서도 좋은 성능을 보여줌에 따라 이산 신호를 고려한 응용 분야에서 적극적으로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, the MFL (magnetic flux leakage) signals of complex defects on the underground gas pipeline are analyzed and their depths are estimated. Since closely-located defects (complex defects) affect each other, accelerate the progress of defection, and are finally combined to one (cluster), it's meaningful to differentiate complex defects from single defects by analyzing their characteristics. Various types of complex defects are characterized and analyzed by defining the safety distance for interference. 26 artificial defects are carved on the pipeline simulation facility (PSF) to analyze the characteristics of complex defect and demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed complex defect estimation. The proposed method shows average length error of 5.8 mm, average width error of 15.55 mm, and average depth error of 8.59%, respectively.

A fuzzy logic filter is constructed from a set of fuzzy IF-THEN rules which change adaptively to minimize some criterion function as new information becomes available. This paper generalizes the fuzzy logic filter and it's adaptive filtering algorithm to include complex parameters and complex signals. Using the complex Stone-Weierstrass theorem, we prove that linear combinations of the fuzzy basis functions are capable of uniformly approximating and complex continuous function on a compact set to arbitrary accuracy. Based on the fuzzy basis function representations, a complex orthogonal least-squares (COLS) learning algorithm is developed for designing fuzzy systems based on given input-output pairs. Also, we propose an adaptive algorithm based on LMS which adjust simultaneously filter parameters and the parameter of the membership function which characterize the fuzzy concepts in the IF-THEN rules. The modeling of a nonlinear communications channel based on a complex fuzzy is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of these algorithm.

In Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI), the QRS complex of ECG is used as a trigger signal for MRI scan. But, gradient and RF(radio frequency) artifacts which are caused to static and dynamic field in MRI scanner cause interference in the ECG. Also, the signal shape of theses artifacts can be similar to the QRS-complex, causing possible misinterpretation during patient monitoring and false gating of the MRI. In case of using general FIR or IIR band-pass filters for minimizing the artifacts, artifact-reduction-ratio is not excellent. So, an adaptive real-time digital filter is proposed for reduction of noise by gradient and RF(radio frequency) artifacts. The proposed filter for MRI-Gating is based on the noise-canceller with NLMS(Normalized Least Mean Square) algorithm. The reference signals of the adaptive noise canceller are a combination of the noisy three channel ECG signals. In conclusions, the proposed method showed the acceptable quality of ECG signal with sufficient SNR for gating the MRI and possibility of real time implementation.

A novel peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction method is proposed for single-carrier frequency-division multiple access (SC-FDMA) signals. The proposed method deliberately distorts the amplitude values of a few of the complex modulated symbols that cause peaks beyond a predetermined threshold in the samples of the output signal. The method then marks the location indices of the distorted symbols by using a pilot block at the transmitter without transmitting side information. At the receiver, the method is then able to recover the distorted amplitude values through the marked location indices. Computer simulation results show that when compared to conventional SC-FDMA signals, the proposed scheme can effectively reduce the PAPR of SC-FDMA signals with asymptotically consistent bit error rate (BER) performance.
