Korean representative residence type is apartment house. Due to this, civil complaint related to living noise is rapidly increasing. Here, in case when they suffer from surrounding noise in daily life, they can raise civil complaint. However, in general home, it is difficult to measure noise utilizing expert equipment, in many cases they use smart phone app. Noise measurement app that was previously released has markedly low correctness, e.g. value is differently measured in the same condition, therefore, it is difficult to be used for the actual noise measurement. Therefore, this paper suggests mobile data process system for noise measurement of living environment utilizing smart phone. The expected effect of this research can be utilized as the civil complaint material by conveniently measuring the noise and presuming the direction that the noise appeared at the home that has no equipment.

The main noise source of the rotary compressor for air conditioner was analyzed by using the measurement of sound intensity, modal analysis and operational deflection shape(ODS) analysis. In this study, the key noise source of rotary compressor was an accumulator, and noise was sharply increased due to the accumulator's resonance which has a big contribution to the noise. To reduce the excessive noise generated from accumulator, structural modification through ODS analysis were applied. Its validation was conducted by the measurement of noise and vibration on the accumulator's surface. The total noise was significantly reduced by 4.2dB(A).

It is widely recognized that train Is one of the most efficient and convenient ways for passenger and freight transportation. However, the environmental noise problem is occurred with the construction and service of train. The noise problems caused by train prevent people from living in a silent environment. Furthermore, this problem is related with the right to preserve one's environment. The objectives of this research are train noise measurement and analysis which might be a base-study for prediction of train noise. This paper mainly deals with the noise of the 'Semaul' train. The train noise shows distinct characteristics according to the variation of height and distance. Furthermore, the database and its interface program are developed for systematic analysis and future research.

Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements are more durable and have superior surface friction compared to most dense-graded asphalt. However, data collected to date generally show PCC pavements to create more noise than asphaltic surfaces. Recent research has shown that some of the new concrete pavement textures are worthy of further examination. One of these, exposed aggregate surfaces, appear to provide better noise quality characteristics as well as good frictional characteristics and durability. In this paper, we considered the relationship between noise level and various textures of exposed aggregate concrete (EAC) pavement by tire impact noise measurement. As the results of that, it was suggested that optimum surface texture and manufacturing condition of EAC in order to reduce tire and pavement interaction noise. Conclusively, we would like to recommend optimum condition of EAC pavement at the respects of materials and treatment. Furthermore, Frequency spectrum as well as A-weighted noise level was also evaluated to analyze properties of noise between PCC and EAC.

Noise map presents new alternatives of noise reduction counter measure and becomes important tool for making environmental policy. Many input factors such as road conditions, number of vehicles, speeds of vehicles are used for noise prediction of the noise map. However, results of noise prediction make difference depending on the values of the input factors. In this study, it researched effect of measurement method for vehicle speeds on the prediction results of the noise map.

In this paper, we introduce the measurement of the underwater noise with 32channel hydrophone array of Samsung CAvitation Tunnel (SCAT) and the detection technique of noise sources by using the beam-forming method. Measurement and way signal Processing under fluid flow are essential works for the underwater acoustics, especially for the detection of noise sources. As the acoustic impedance of the water is relatively high and the tunnel is an enclosed system, we have to consider the interaction between tunnel and water together with the reflection of noise in the beam-forming technique. Also, for a hydrophone array system that is fixed on one side of tunnel wall as done in SCAT is liable to suffer from some limitations in the detection of the noise sources with the array, we discuss these limitations particularly on the frequency range and spacing of noise sources.

A time delay controller with state feedback is proposed for azimuth motion control of the frictionless positioning device which is subject to the variations of inertia in the presence of measurement noise. The time delay controller, which is combined with a low-pass filter to attenuate the effect of measurement noise, ensures the asymptotic stability of the closed loop system. It is found that the low-pass filter tends to increase the robustness in the design of time delay controller as well as the gain and phase margins of the closed loop system. Numerical and experimental results support that the proposed controller guarantees a good tracking performance irrespective of the variation of inertia and the presence of measurement noise.

The floor impact noise of concrete structures in apartments buildings is affected from the flexural wave propagation characteristics. Accordingly, the measurement of wave propagation characteristics is required for suggestion of efficient method to reduce the impact noise. The purpose of this article is to propose an experimental technique to measure dynamic properties of concrete structures. The method was proposed using the flexural wave propagation characteristics. Wave speeds, bending stiffness and their loss factors are estimated from which the vibration dissipation capabilities are investigated. Several different concrete beam structures were custom-built for measurement. The damping treatments using viscoelastic materials for reducing noise generation are also tested. The beam transfer function of the damped beam is predicted using the compressional damping model from which the mechanism of the vibration energy dissipation is investigated.

The aim of this paper is to compare wavelet, kurtosis and pseudofractal based techniques for structural health monitoring in the presence of measurement noise. A detailed comparison and assessment of these techniques have been carried out in this paper through numerical experiments for the calibration of damage extent of a simply supported beam with an open crack serving as an illustrative example. The numerical experiments are deemed critical due to limited amount of experimental data available in the field of singularity based detection of damage. A continuous detectibility map has been proposed for comparing various techniques qualitatively. Efficiency surfaces have been constructed for wavelet, kurtosis and pseudofractal based calibration of damage extent as a function of damage location and measurement noise level. Levels of noise have been identified for each technique where a sudden drop of calibration efficiency is observed marking the onset of damage masking regime by measurement noise.

An angle error is a factor obstructing to track accurate position in tracking radars. And the noise incurring the angle error can be divided as follows; thermal noise and glint. In general, Extended Kalman filter used in tracking radars is designed with considering thermal noise only. The Extended Klaman filter uses a fixed measurement error covariance when updating an estimate state by using ahead state and measurement. But, a noise power varies according to the range. Therefore we purposes the adaptive Kalman filter which changes the measurement noise covariance according to the range. In this paper, we compare the performance of the Extended Kalman filter and the proposed adaptive Kalman filter by considering KSLV-I (Korean Satellite Launch Vehicles).
