In this paper, we analyzed the frequency spectrum of the electromagnetic waves radiated by an electric discharge as a basic study to develop an on-line diagnostic technique for power equipment installed inside closed-switchboards. In order to simulate local and series arc discharges caused by an electric field concentration and poor connections, three types of electrode systems were fabricated, consisting of needle and plane electrodes and an arc generator meeting the specifications of UL 1699. The experiment was carried out in an electromagnetic anechoic chamber, and the measurement system consisted of a PD free transformer, a loop antenna with a frequency bandwidth of 150 kHz-30 MHz, an ultra log periodic antenna with a frequency bandwidth of 30 MHz-2 GHz, and an EMI test receiver with a frequency bandwidth of 3 Hz-3 GHz. According to the experimental results, the frequency spectra of the electrical discharges were widely distributed across a range of 150 kHz-400 MHz, depending on the defects, while commonly found between 150 kHz and 10 MHz. Therefore, considering the ambient noise and antenna characteristics, the best frequency bandwidth for a measurement system to monitor abnormal conditions by detecting electromagnetic waves in closedswitchboards is 150 kHz-10 MHz.

The spool displacement of a directional control valve can be considered as the standard signal for the measurement of its bandwidth frequency. When the spool displacement is not available, the metering-orifice system is suggested in this study as an alternative way to measure the - 3 dB amplitude-ratio bandwidth frequency of the hydraulic directional-control valve. The amplitude ratio of the metering-orifice pressure can be adjusted to equal that of the spool displacement through the controlling of the metering-orifice opening area. A series of experiments were conducted to verify the effectiveness of the metering-orifice system. The metering orifice was confirmed as adequate for the measurement of the - 3 dB amplitude-ratio bandwidth frequency.

In this paper, two filters with center frequency of 19.58MHz were cascaded and its bandwidth characteristics were investigated with the variations of coupling capacitance for intermediate frequency (IF) bandpass filter application. The cascaded filter showed the higher stop region, reduction of spurious response and increase of selectivity. With the increase of coupling capacitance, insertion loss was increased but spurious response reduced. The cascaded filter with coupling capacitance of 15pF showed insertion loss of 5.643dB, 3dB bandwidth of 55.089kHz and 20dB bandwidth of 83.608kHz, respectively.

We simulated Frequency-shifted feedback laser using AOM inside the cavity. We analyze instantaneous oscillation frequency at peak spectral intensity and Comb bandwidth of output spectrum from Wigner-Ville distribution of intracavity electric field. The Comb bandwidth is defined as the product of the saturation-broadened bandwidth and the total resonant modes contributing to FSF operation.

In this paper, the required frequency bandwidth for short range communications and mobile communication networks is analyzed for the matured Personal Environment Service, which establishes intelligent personal living environment with connecting the mobile phone and living appliances to WPAN, mobile communication networks, and Internet. In spite of rough estimation of the service needs, this paper shows the calculation method of required frequency bandwidth for the service and the considerations for the Ubiquitous era in advance.

Ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB), narrow bandwidth (single frequency), and a combination of both technologies have been studied for the ultra-high frequency (UHF) partial discharge (PD) monitoring system as a detection scheme. We have experimentally compared those detection methods using a mock-up of 362 kV class single phase gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) and a stable PD source. A rolling-ball type PD cell that produces PDs of about 10 pC, is placed at one end of the GIS. An internal UHF PD sensor was attached several meters away from the PD source. The PD spectrum was measured up to 3 GHz. A useable bandwidth of more than 1 GHz was used to measure UWB signals from the PD. To simulate the narrow bandwidth scheme a bandwidth of 100 kHz centered at several different frequencies was used.

This paper presents a design method for a wideband bandpass filter (BPF) which compensates for frequency dependency based on the image admittance and image phase. In the proposed method, new compensation methods for the admittance and phase are integrated with the conventional method. The proposed method improves the frequency shift and reduces the unwanted bandwidth when designing more than 20% of the Fractional Bandwidth (FBW), whereas the conventional method exhibits frequency degradation at only 10% FBW. The proposed design theory was verified by applying it to both lumped elements and distributed lines through circuit simulation and measurements without an optimization process. The measurement results demonstrate improvements in the frequency shift and target bandwidth. In the future, an accurate design method based on frequency dependence can be implemented for the next-generation broadband communication system applications.

In this paper, a new approach is proposed for effectively estimating the occupied bandwidth of frequency modulation (FM) signals. The proposed method makes use of the smoothing niter for removing the perturbation of spectrum envelope, which frequently occurs in FM signals having the instantaneous frequency. An effective procedure is derived for finding the relatively accurate bandwidth of FM signals combined with x-dB bandwidth measurement method, which International Telecommunication Union-Radiocommunication (ITU-R) recommended. It was shown that the proposed approach provides superior performance relative to the one obtained with the x-dB bandwidth measurement method in terms of sample bias and mean squared error of bandwidth estimates.

A multi-resonant broadband acoustic transducer with six Tonpilz elements operating at different resonant frequencies in a transducer assembly was fabricated, tested, and analyzed. A compensated transducer, modified by adding series inductance to the developed multi-resonant broadband transducer, was shown to provide improved bandwidth performance with a relatively more uniform frequency response compared with the uncompensated transducer. By controlling the series inductance, flat frequency response characteristics at two frequency bands were obtained over the range 38-52 kHz with 1.1 mH inductance and 50-60 kHz with 0.4 mH inductance. These results suggest that the operating frequency of the developed multi-resonant broadband transducer in a chirp echo sounder can be shifted to a different frequency band that is optimized according to the environment for more effective echo surveys of fishing grounds.

This paper proposes new method for the enhancement of nonexistent high frequency spectral contents from low sample rate audio signal. For example, Due to the protocol constraint, the audio bandwidth of MP3 is restricted to 16Khz. Although band-restricted MP3 audio provide savings of storage space and network bandwidth, it suffers a major problem of a loss in high frequency fidelity such as localization, ambient information, and bright nature of audio. This paper provides a new mathematical analysis for the adaptive estimation of the high frequency contents based on the nature of the input low sample rate audio. Proposed method can be worked globally to any kind of audio such as speech and music that are restricted by sampling rate and bandwidth.
