In this paper, we have analyzed a multiwavelet filter bank architecture which have several bases. The filter bank composed of multiwavelets bases is matrix-valued. Multiwavelets offer simultaneous orthogonality, symmetry, and short support, which is not possible for the scalar wavelet system, hence multiwavelet system can obtain excellent performance in signal analysis and compress. Also the multiwavelet differs from the scalar wavelet system in requiring two or more input streams to the multiwavelet filter bank. In this paper, we describe methods for obtaining such a input stream and how apply the actual data.

When finite length image signal is decomposed into M-band synthesized using M-band orthogonal wavelet transform, the boundary signal of image are not reconstructed perfectly. for boundary signals to be reconstructed perfectly, different type filter bank or technique is applied to them when the dimension of analysed is proposed. It can be designed using the singular value decomposition of boundary perfect reconstruction matrix which is obtained from paraunitary matrix which is obtained from paraunitary matrix. And it is also discussed to design the boundary filter bank for improving the coding performance when it is applied to subband coder. The proposed boundary filter bank shows 7% gains in PSNR compared with reflected method.

본 논문에서는 wavelet 패킷의 직교성을 이용한 새로운 다중 통신 시스템을 구성하고 그 특성을 분석하였다. 유한에너지 신호공간 L$^2$(R)로부터 부분공간으로 신호를 분해할 수 있는 MRA(Multiresolution Analysis)의 기본개념과 이를 이용한 wavelet와 QMF(Quadrature Mirror Filter)와의 관계를 검토하였다. MRA의 개념을 보다 일반화한 신호의 wavelet 패킷 변환과 역변환을 실현하기 위한 알고리즘을 고찰하고 MRF(Multirate Filter Bank)를 이용하여 다중화 시스템을 설계하였다. 제안된 시스템은 구성이 간단하며 최대 이용자의 수와 정보 데이터의 전송율에 대한 유연성을 기대할 수 있음을 보였다.

Multi-carrier CDMA is a transmission scheme where data symbols are spread in the frequency domain with a spread code then transmitted using multiple carriers. It is robust against narrowband interference because of its long symbol duration. However, due to large sidebands of the rectangular window frequency response, subchannels spectrally overlap with neighboring subchannels, which leads to substantial intercarrier interference in a dispersive channel. In this paper, we consider a mult-carrier CDMA system where subchannel spectral containment is achiveved by M-band cosine modulated filter bank (CMFB). In CMFB based MC-CDMA, subchannel spectral containment is achieved using the filter bank of longer impulse response than that of conventional discrete Fourier transform (DFT) filter bank. We show that spectral containment feature of the CMFB based fading channel is analyzed using computer simulations.

This paper presents a vowel onset point (VOP) detection method based on the human auditory system. This method maps the "perceptual" frequency scale, i.e. Mel scale onto a linear acoustic frequency, and then establishes a series of Triangular Mel-weighted Filter Bank simulate the function of band pass filtering in human ear. This nonlinear critical-band filter bank helps greatly reduce the data dimensionality, and eliminate the effect of harmonic waves to make the formants more prominent in the nonlinear spaced Mel spectrum. The sum of mel spectrum peaks energy is extracted as feature for each frame, and the instinct at which the energy amplitude starts rising sharply is detected as VOP, by convolving with Gabor window. For the single-word database which contains 12 vowels articulated with different kinds of consonants, the experimental results showed a good average detection rate of 72.73%, higher than other vowel detection methods based on short-time energy and zero-crossing rate.

Motor imagery based Brain-computer Interface(BCI), which has recently attracted attention, is the technique for decoding the user's voluntary motor intention using Electroencephalography(EEG). For classifying the motor imagery, event-related desynchronization(ERD), which is the phenomenon of EEG voltage drop at sensorimotor area in ${\mu}$-band(8-13Hz), has been generally used but this method are not free from the performance degradation of the BCI system because EEG has low spatial resolution and shows different ERD-appearing band according to users. Common spatial pattern(CSP) was proposed to solve the low spatial resolution problem but it has a disadvantage of being very sensitive to frequency-band selection. Discriminative filter bank common spatial pattern(DFBCSP) tried to solve the frequency-band selection problem by using the Fisher ratio of the averaged EEG signal power and establishing discriminative filter bank(DFB) which only includes the feature frequency-band. However, we found that DFB might not include the proper filters showing the spatial pattern of ERD. To solve this problem, we apply a band-selection process using CSP feature vectors and linear discriminant analysis to DFBCSP instead of the averaged EEG signal power. The filter selection results and the classification accuracies of the existing and the proposed methods show that the CSP feature is more effective than signal power feature.

This paper provides a rigorous theory for analysis of quantization effects and optimum filter bank design in quantized multidimensional subband filter banks. Even though subband filter design has been a hot topic for last decades, a few results have been reported on the subband filter with a quantizer. Each pdf-optimized quantizer is modeled by a nonlinear gain-plus-additive uncorrelated noise and embedded into the subband structure. Using polyphase decomposition of the analysis/synthesis filter banks, we derive the exact expression for the output mean square quantization error. Based on the minimization of the output mean square error, the technique for optimal filter design methodology is developed. Numerical design examples for optimum nonseparable paraunitary and biorthogonal filter banks are presented with a quincunx subsampling lattice. Through the simulation, $10\~20\;\%$ decreases in MSE have been observed compared with subband filter with no quantizers especially for low bit rate cases.

Adaptive digital filtering and noise cancelling technique using a tree structured filter bank are presented to reduce a undesirable aliasing due to the decimation of filtered output and improve the performance in terms of mean-square error and the convergence speed using a aliasing canceller. A signal is split into two subband by analysis filter bank and decimated by decimator and reconstructed by interpolation technique and synthesis filter bank. A variable step-size LMS algorithm is used to improve the convergence speed in case of existing the measurement noise in desired input of filter. It is shown by computer simulation that the proposed subband structure in this paper is superior to conventional subband filter structure in terms of mean-square error and convergence speed.

This paper describes a new method of directional filter-based analysis for fingerprint enhancement. Fingerprint cages can be represented by direction field of regular structure of ridge patterns. The dominant directional component of ridge plays a very important role in pre-processing steps of fingerprint image analysis such as ridge's linking and noise removal for minutiae extraction. A directional filter bank analyzes input image into directional subband images and synthesizes them to the perfectly reconstructed image. In this paper, a new fingerprint enhancement algorithm based on a directional filter bank is proposed. The algorithm decomposes the fingerprint image into subband images in the analysis stage, accomplishes an enhance procedure by processing subband images in the enhance stage and synthesizes them to the enhanced image in the synthesis stage.

This paper focuses on a performance analysis of TRN among various nonlinear filtering methods. In a TRN research, extended Kalman filter(EKF) is a basic estimation algorithm. In this paper, iterated EKF(IEKF), EKF with stochastic linearization(SL), and unscented Kalman filter(UKF) algorithms are introduced to compare navigation performance with original EKF. In addition to introduced sequential filters, bank of Kalman filters method, which is one of the batch method, is also presented. Finally, by simulating an artificial aircraft mission, EKF with SL was chosen as the most consistent filter in the introduced sequential filters. Also, results suggested that the bank of Kalman filters can be alternative for TRN, when a fast convergence of navigation solution is needed.
