  • In this paper, a method of edge detection from low contrast and noisy images which contain hexagonal shape is proposed. This method is based on the combination of laplacian gaussian filter and an idea of filters which are dependent on the shape. First, an algorithm which has six masks as its extractors to detect the hexagonal edges especially in the comers is used. Here, two tricom filters are used to detect the tricom joints of hexagons and other four masks are used to enhance the line segments of hexagonal edges. As a natural image, a corneal endothelial cell image which usually has a regular hexagonal shape is selected. The edge detection of hexagonal shapes in this corneal endothelial cell is important for clinical diagnosis. Next, The proposal algorithm and other conventional methods are applied to noisy hexagonal images to evaluate each efficiency. As a result, this proposal algorithm shows a robustness against noises and better detection ability in the aspects of the signal to noise ratio, the edge coineidence ratio and the detection accuracy factor as compared with other conventional methods.

  • This paper presents an FIR (Finite Impulse Response) fixed-interval smoothing filter for fast and exact estimating state variables of a discrete nonlinear system with modeling uncertainty. Conventional IIR (Infinite Impulse Response) filter and smoothing filter can estimate state variables of a system with an exact model when the system is observable. When there is an uncertainty in the system model, however, conventional IIR filter and smoothing filter may cause large errors because the filters cannot estimate the state variables corresponding to the uncertain model exactly. To solve this problem, FIR filters that have fast estimation properties and have robustness to the modeling uncertainty have been developed. However, there is time-delay estimation phenomenon in the FIR filter. The FIR smoothing filter proposed in this paper makes up for the drawbacks of the IIR filter, IIR smoothing filter, and FIR filter. Therefore, the FIR smoothing filter has good estimation performance irrespective of modeling uncertainty. The proposed FIR smoothing filter is applied to the integrated navigation system composed of a magnetic compass based DR (Dead Reckoning) and a GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver. Even when the magnetic compass error that changes largely as the surrounding magnetic field is modeled as a random constant, it is shown that the FIR smoothing filter can estimate the varying magnetic compass error fast and exactly with simulation results.

  • Ocean Research Stations (ORSs) is the ocean platform type observation towers and measured oceanic, atmospheric and environmental data. These station located on the offshore area far from the coast, so they can produce the data without land effect. This study focused to improve the wave data quality of ORS station. The wave observations at ORSs are used by the C-band (5.8 GHz, 5.17 cm) MIROS Wave and Current Radar (MWR). MWR is convenient to maintenance and produce reliability wave data under bad weather conditions. MWR measured significant wave height, peak wave period, peak wave direction and 2D wave spectrum, so it's can provide wave information for researchers and engineers. In order to improve the reliability of MWR wave data, Datawell Waverider Buoy was installed near the one ORS (Socheoncho station) during 7 months and validate the wave data of MWR. This study found that the wave radar tend to be overestimate the low wave height under wind condition. Firstly, this study carried out the wave Quality Control (QC) using wind data, however the quality of wave data was limited. So, this study applied the four filters (Correlation Check, Direction Filter, Reduce White Noise and Phillips Check) of MWR operating software and find that the filters effectively improve the wave data quality. After applying 3 effective filters in combination, the RMSE of significant wave height decreased from 0.81m to 0.23m, by 0.58m and Correlation increased from 0.66 to 0.96, by 0.32, so the reliability of MWR significant wave height was significantly improved.

  • In this paper, we propose an image signal processor (ISP) for an ultra small HD-grade video sensor with 3A (AWB, AE, and AF) in camera phones that can process 720P/30fps videos. In order to enhance the video quality of the systems, it is necessary to achieve the high performance of the 3A. The proposed AWB algorithm multiplies the adjusted coefficients of color gains to the captured data of white objects. The proposed AE method adopts the index step moving based on the difference between an averaged Y luminance and a target luminance, together with IIR filters with variable time responses. The proposed AF technique controls the focus curve to find the lens position that maximizes the integrated high frequency components in luminance values by using highpass filters. Finally, we compare the image quality captured from our system to the quality of a commercial HD camcorder in order to evaluate the performance of the proposed ISP. The proposed ISP system is also fabricated with 0.18um CMOS flash memory process.

  • Adaptive filters are widely used for acoustic echo canceler, adaptive equalizer and adaptive noise canceler. Coefficients of adaptive filters are updated by NLMS algorithm. However, Coefficients are misaligned by ambient noises when they are adapted by NLMS algorithm. In this Paper, a method determined the adaptation constant by low-pass filtered instantaneous gradient vector of LMS algorithm using orthognality principles of optimal filter is proposed. At initial states, instantaneous gradient vector, that is the cross-correlation of input signals and estimation error signals, has large value because input signals are remained in estimation error signals. When an adaptive filter is conversed, the cross-correlation will be close to zero. It isn's affected by ambient noises because ambient noises are uncorrelated with input signals. Determining adaptation constant with the cross-correlation, adaptive filters can be robust to ambient noises and the convergence rate doesn't slower As results of computer simulations, it is shown that the performance of proposed algorithm is betted than that of conventional algorithms.

  • Radio waves must pass through the unstable atmosphere for successful wireless data transmission from space to ground stations. Data link algorithms required by the International Space Data Systems Advisory Committee (CCSDS) must be capable of detecting and resynchronizing cryptographic and receiver-side errors. However, error recovery is not part of the CCSDS requirements. This paper proposes an algorithm that enables robustness and error recovery against various noises. We experimented with environments such as Gaussian, Salt, Pepper, and S&P noise through noise reduction filters, filters that improve sharpness, and EDSR. In addition, we compare similar algorithms SES Alarmed and DSES Alarmed.

  • Nowadays, Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) has become very popular in streaming multimedia contents. In DASH, a client estimates current network bandwidth and then determines an appropriate video quality with bitrate matching the estimated bandwidth. Thus, estimating accurately the available bandwidth is a significant premise in the quality of video streaming, especially when network traffic fluctuates substantially. To cope with this challenge, researchers have presented various filters to estimate network bandwidth adaptively. However, experiment results show that current schemes either adapt slowly to network changes or adapt fast but are very sensitive to delay jitter and produce sharply changed estimation. This paper presents a novel bandwidth estimation scheme based on Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). We applied an MACD indicator and its two thresholds to classifying network states into stable state and agile state, based on the network state different filters are applied to estimate network bandwidth. In the paper, we studied the performance of various MACD indicators and the threshold values on bandwidth estimation. Then we used a DASH proxy-based environment to compare the performance of the presented scheme with current well-known schemes. The simulation results illustrate that the MACD-based bandwidth estimation scheme performs superior to existing schemes both in the speed of adaptively to network changes and in stability in bandwidth estimation.

  • Recently, some variable length adaptive filters which employ variable lengths taps for the input signal statistics are proposed [1-5]. In this paper, a new subband adaptive filter with variable filter tap length is proposed. The proposed subband variable length adaptive filters can optimize filter length for each subband which can result less computational complexities with respect to the conventional full band adaptive filters. When the signal in the full band has narrow spectrum, the conventional full band adaptive requires very long filter taps, whereas the proposed subband variable filter requires less taps with the spectrum split in subband. The computer simulation results reveals that in many case, in system identification with narrow band system estimation, the proposed adaptive filter has less computational complexities with faster convergence.
