This paper describes a diagnostic technique of power transformers by on-line detection of ultrasonic signals. A trend of partial discharge variation in a real transformer was estimated by counting the number of ultrasonic signals until insulation paper in the point-to-plane electrode is punctured. The number of electrical signals is closely related to the ultrasonic signals generated by partial discharge. The trend of the ultrasonic signal number could easily be distinguished by taking moving average. The insulation failure due to partial discharge in transformers can be predicted based on the trend analysis of ultrasonic signal number caused by partial discharge. (author). 14 refs., 10 figs.

This paper proposes a new global positioning system (GPS) receiver algorithm to improve the positioning accuracy of a transporter using fault detection and isolation techniques from satellite signals. To improve the positioning accuracy, several factors including a feasible number of satellite signals, SNR, NAV Measurement Quality Indicator (mesQI), and Doppler, among others, have been utilized in the proposed algorithm. To increase the number of feasible satellite signals, an erroneous satellite signal has been replaced by the previous one. In conventional approaches, received GPS signals are analyzed and directly determined to be contaminated or not. The only clean signals are utilized for identifying the current location. This fault detection and isolation (FDI) feasibility test is popular for commercial GPS receivers. In the urban environment, especially near a building, the feasible number of satellite signals becomes insufficient to position the transporter. To overcome this problem, satellite signals are efficiently selected and recovered. Additionally, using the proposed GPS receiver algorithm, a feasible number of satellite signals can be increased, thereby improving the positional accuracy. Real world experiments using a transporter that carries blocks in a shipyard have demonstrated the superiority of the proposed algorithm compared to conventional approaches.

This paper describes a diagnosis of power transformers by on-line detection of ultrasonic signals. Partial discharge in power transformer generates ultrasonic signals. The trend of the ultrasonic signal number can be measured when partial discharge is generated in HV Winding. The trend of the ultrasonic signal number could easily be distinguished by taking moving average. The insulation failure due to partial discharge in transformers can be predicted based in the trend analysis of the number of ultrasonic signals caused by partial discharge.

In modern wireless communication systems including beamformers or location-based services (LBS), which employ multiple antenna elements, estimating the number of signals is essential for accurately determining the quality of the communication service. Representative signal number estimation algorithms including the Akaike information criterion (AIC) and minimum description length (MDL) algorithms, which are information theoretical criterion models, determine the number of signals based on a reference value that minimizes each criterion. In general, increasing the number of elements mounted onto the array antenna enhances the performance of estimating the number of signals; however, it increases the computational complexity of the estimation algorithm. In addition, various configurations of array antennas for the increased number of antenna elements should be considered to efficiently utilize them in a limited location. In this paper, we introduce an efficient signal number estimation algorithm based on the beamspace based AIC and MDL techniques that reduce the computational complexity by reducing the dimension of a uniform circular array antenna. Since this algorithm is based on a uniform circular array antenna, it presents the advantages of a circular array antenna. The performance of the proposed signal number estimation algorithm is evaluated through computer simulation examples.

표면근전도(sEMG) 신호의 응용은 초기에는 단순히 근육 활성도의 유무를 판별하여 On/Off 의 스위치 기능으로 많이 사용되어 왔으나, 표면근전도 신호처리와 알고리즘의 발달로 휠체어의 방향 제어는 물론 수화를 인식하는 분야까지 확대되었다. 청각 장애인들의 언어 소통을 위한 중요한 수단인 수화나 지화는 미학습자와는 소통의 어려움이 존재해왔으며, 이러한 어려움을 해결하기 위해 수화나 지화를 인식하는 기술에 대한 연구가 지속적으로 수행되어 왔다. 최근에는, 수화나 지화 시연시에 활성화되는 근육의 신호를 활용하여 수화나 지화를 인식하는 방법이 중국 숫자지화 중심으로 적용되고 있는 추세이다. 하지만, 수화나 지화는 일반 음성언어와 마찬가지로 중국 숫자지화와 한국 숫자지화가 다르므로, 중국 숫자지화 시연시에 관여하는 근육이 한국 숫자지화 시연시에는 관여하지 않을 수가 있어, 인식률이 현저히 떨어질 수 있다. 그러므로 한국 숫자지화 시연시에 활성화되는 근육의 선정은 표면근전도 신호에 기반한 한국 숫자지화 인식률에 매우 중요하다. 하지만, 표면근전도 신호에 기반한 한국 숫자지화 인식에 대한 연구는 문헌에서 드물다. 본 연구에서는 표면근전도 신호를 활용한 한국수화 또는 한국지화의 인식에 관한 초기 연구로서, 한국 숫자지화를 시연시에 관여하는 아래팔근육을 제안하고 실험을 통하여 검증하기 위해 숫자 영(0)부터 다섯(5)의 여섯 가지 한국 숫자지화를 대상으로 인식하는 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해, 표면근전도 신호를 활용한 CNN 기반 지화인식 방법에 적용하여 여섯 가지 한국 숫자지화에 대하여 100%의 인식률을 확인함으로써, 여섯 가지 한국 숫자지화 인식을 위해 제안된 아래팔근육과 전극위치의 타당성을 검증하였다.

In this paper, using AE (Acoustic Emission) sensor the electrical and emitted-sound signals are measured by treeing breakdown in the epoxy resin, and the corresponding frequency spectrum of the AE signals are analyzed. We also examined the relationship between partial discharge magnitude and pulse number of AE signals to diagnose the deterioration of the electrical insulation due to treeing breakdown. From these results, a frequency band of AE signals through treeing breakdown was set to about 230 [kHz], and it appeared that pulse number of AE signal was proportional to partial discharge magnitude.

In this paper, we propose the beamforming algorithm for the performance improvement of MIMO MC-CDMA system. The proposed multibeamforming of MIMO MC-CDMA structure having the same number of beamformer as the number of transmit antenna is derived by calculating the error signals between the coded pilot symbols and the corresponding received signals from the multiple transmitters of the desired user in the frequency domain, transforming the frequency-domain error signals into time-domain error signals, and updating the weights of the multibeamformer in the time-domain in the direction minimizing the mean squared error (MSE). The proposed approach can track each direction of arrival (DOA) of the signals from multi-antennas of a desired user. The performance improvement is investigated through computer simulation by applying the proposed approach to MIMO MC-CDMA system in a multipath fading channel with multiusers.

This paper describes a diagnosis of transformer by ultrasonic signal due to partial discharge. The ultrasonic signal can be measured when partial discharge is generated in a real transformer. The trend of partial discharge in transformer was estimated by counting the number of ultrasonic signals until insulation paper in the point-to-plane electrode is destroyed. The number of ultrasonic signals is closely related to the number of the electrical signals by partial discharge. The trend of the ultrasonic signal number could easily be distinguished by taking moving average.

PURPOSES : This study aimed to analyze the impact the operation of pre-signals at 4-leg signalized intersections and present primary environmental factors of roads that need to be considered in the installation of pre-signals. METHODS : Shift of proportions safety effectiveness evaluation method which assesses shifts in proportions of target collision types to determine safety effectiveness was applied to analyze traffic crash by types. Also, Empirical Bayes before/after safety effectiveness evaluation method was adapted to analyze the impact pre-signal installation. Negative binomial regression was conducted to determine SPF(safety performance function). RESULTS : Pre-signals are effective in reducing the number of head on, right angle and sideswipe collisions and both the total number of personal injury crashes and severe crashes. Also, it is deemed that each factor used as an independent variable for the SPF model has strong correlation with the total number of personal injury crashes and severe crashes, and impacts general traffic crashes as a whole. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests the following should be considered in pre-signal installation on intersections. 1) U-turns allowed in the front and rear 2) A high number of roads that connect to the intersection 3) Many right-turn traffic flows 4) Crosswalks installed in the front and rear 5) Insufficient left-turn lanes compared to left-turn traffic flows or no left-turn-only lane.

도래각 추정, 간섭제거, 신호 수신 등을 위해 수신신호에 포함되는 신호의 개수를 정확히 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 대표적인 신호 개수 추정 알고리즘으로 AIC(: Akaike Information Criterion)와 MDL(: Minimum Description Length) 알고리즘이 있는데, 이들 알고리즘은 각 기준이 최소화되는 값을 찾아 신호의 개수를 추정한다. 수신기의 배열 안테나 요소 개수가 증가하면 추정 성능이 향상되지만, 최소값을 찾기 위해 모든 안테나 요소에 대한 기준값을 계산하여야 하므로 복잡도가 크게 증가한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해, 본 논문에서는 빔공간 처리를 통해 차원을 축소시켜 계산량을 줄이면서 효율적으로 신호의 개수를 추정할 수 있는 빔공간 기반의 AIC와 MDL 알고리즘을 제안한다. 또한, 다양한 시나리오 기반의 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 알고리즘의 성능을 평가하고 분석한다.
