항공영상으로 제작한 고품질의 해빙표면모델은 인공위성 기반 원격탐사 기술 개발을 위한 현장자료 뿐만 아니라 북극 해빙의 정밀한 형상학적 변동 특성 분석에도 효과적으로 사용될 수 있다. 그러나 해빙 표면의 부족한 텍스쳐 정보는 영상정합을 어렵게 만드는 요인으로 작용한다. 이에 본 논문에서는 고품질 해빙표면 모델 생성을 위한 일환으로 균질한 해빙 표면에 대한 정합비용함수들의 성능 비교 분석을 수행한다. 정합비용함수로는 영상 도메인의 SSD(sum of squared differences), NCC(normalized cross-correlation), ZNCC(zero-mean normalized cross-correlation), 주파수 도메인의 PC(phase correlation), OC(orientation correlation), GC(gradient correlation)를 분석하였다. 텍스쳐 정보량에 따른 정합 성능을 보다 명확하고 객관적으로 분석하기 위해 객체 공간 기반 정합 기법의 원리를 바탕으로 하는 새로운 평가 방법을 도입하였다. 실험결과는 해빙 표면과 같이 텍스쳐 정보가 희박한 지역에 대해서는 정합 지역에 따라 적합한 크기의 탐색창을 가변적으로 적용해야만 정합의 신뢰성 및 정확도 확보가 가능함을 보여주었다. 정합비용함수들 사이에서는 NCC와 ZNCC가 텍스쳐 정보 변화에 대해서 가장 우수한 성능을 나타냈다.

Providing a customer with tailored location-based services (LBSs) is a fundamental problem. For location-estimation techniques with radio-based measurements, LBS applications are widely available for mobile devices (MDs), such as smartphones, enabling users to run multi-task applications. LBS information not only enables obtaining the current location of an MD but also provides real-time push-pull communication service. For indoor environments, localization technologies based on radio frequency (RF) pattern-matching approaches are accurate and commonly used. However, to survey radio information for pattern-matching approaches, a considerable amount of time and work is spent in indoor environments. Consequently, in order to reduce the system-deployment cost and computing complexity, this article proposes an indoor positioning approach, which involves using Asus Xtion to facilitate capturing RF signals during an offline site survey. The depth information obtained using Asus Xtion is utilized to estimate the locations and predict the received signal strength (RF information) at uncertain locations. The proposed approach effectively reduces not only the time and work costs but also the computing complexity involved in determining the orientation and RF during the online positioning phase by estimating the user's location by using a smartphone. The experimental results demonstrated that more than 78% of time was saved, and the number of samples acquired using the proposed method during the offline phase was twice as much as that acquired using the conventional method. For the online phase, the location estimates have error distances of less than 2.67 m. Therefore, the proposed approach is beneficial for use in various LBS applications.

가상 저음 시스템은 기본 주파수 성분의 배음을 생성하여 스피커의 저역 재생 대역을 확장하는 방법으로 소형 스피커에 널리 사용된다. 가상 저음 시스템의 주관적인 성능은 배음의 가중치 부여 방법과 관련이 높기 때문에, 기존 연구에서는 지수 감쇠 가중치 부여 방법과 음색 매칭 방법 등 다양한 가중치 부여 방법이 제안되었다. 그러나 생성한 배음과 기존 신호간의 위상을 맞추지 않을 경우 정확한 가중치 부여가 불가능하다. 본 논문에서는 기존 가중치 부여 방법의 한계점을 분석하고 이를 개선한 가중치 부여 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법은 생성한 배음의 위상을 기존신호의 위상과 일치시키고, 기본 주파수에 따라 배음 가중치를 가변적으로 부여하는 방법이다. 기존 가상 저음 시스템과 객관 및 주관 비교 평가를 수행한 결과, 위상 일치 방법은 자연스럽고 효과적인 저역강화에 필수적임을 확인하였으며, 제안한 배음 가중치 부여 방법은 제한된 상황에서 기존 가중치 부여 방법보다 효과적임을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 고대역 (4kHz-8kHz)의 주기적 성분이 강하게 나타나는 신호에 대해서 MP (Matching Pursuit) 알고리즘을 이용한 부호화 방법을 제안한다. 또한 분석된 스펙트럼 크기 파라미터와 위상 파라미터의 효율적인 양자화 방법을 제안한다. MP 알고리즘은 오류 상쇄 원리와 정현파 모델에 바탕을 두고 있기 때문에 정확한 피치 주기 예측이 필요하다. 고대역의 정확한 피치 주기 예측을 위해 저대역 (0kHz-4kHz) 신호에서 검출한 피치 주기를 이용함으로써 부호화와 비트할당의 효율을 높일 수 있다. 스펙트럼 크기 계수의 양자화를 위해 계수들에 대해 고정 차원 이산코사인 변환 (MDCT : Modified Discrete Cosine Transform) 및 다단계 (multi-stage) 구조를 결합시킨 양자화 기법을 사용하였고, 위상 값들은 스펙트럼 크기에 따른 가중치 필터와 위상의 $2{\pi}$ 순환 특성을 이용하여 양자화하였다. 또한 제안한 양자화 기법과 부호화 방법을 음성 분석-합성 (analysis-by-synthesis) 시스템에 적용하여, 목적 신호와의 비교를 통해 검증한다. 향후 대역 분할을 기본 구조로 하는 계층 구조의 광대역 음성부호화기에의 적용 가능성을 제시한다.

Nowadays, many commercial CAD systems support history-based, constraint-based and feature-based modeling. Unfortunately, most systems fail during the re-evaluation phase when various kind of topological changes occur. This issue is known as "persistent naming" which refers to the problem of identifying entities in an initial parametric model and matching them in the re-evaluated model. Most works in this domain focus on the persistent naming of atomic entities such as vertices, edges or faces. But very few of them consider the persistent naming of aggregates like shells (any set of faces). We propose in this paper a complete framework for identifying and matching any kind of entities based on their underlying topology, and particularly shells. The identifying method is based on the invariant structure of each class of form features (a hierarchical structure of shells) and on its topological evolution (an historical structure of faces). The matching method compares the initial and the re-evaluated topological histories, and computes two measures of topological similarity between any couple of entities occurring in both models. The naming and matching method has been implemented and integrated in a prototype of commercial CAD Software (Topsolid).

In this paper a hierarchical stereo matching algorithm based on feature extraction is proposed. The boundary (edge) as feature point in an image is first obtained by segmenting an image into red, green, blue and white regions. With the obtained boundary information, disparities are extracted by matching window on the image boundary, and the initial disparity map is generated when assigned the same disparity to neighbor pixels. The final disparity map is created with the initial disparity. The regions with the same initial disparity are classified into the regions with the same color and we search the disparity again in each region with the same color by changing block size and search range. The experiment results are evaluated on the Middlebury data set and it show that the proposed algorithm performed better than a phase based algorithm in the sense that only about 14% of the disparities for the entire image are inaccurate in the final disparity map. Furthermore, it was verified that the boundary of each region with the same disparity was clearly distinguished.

In this paper, a novel unequal broadband out-of-phase power divider (PD) is presented. Double-sided parallel-strip lines (DSPSLs) are employed to achieve an out-of-phase response. Also, an asymmetric dual-band matching structure with two external isolation resistors is utilized to obtain arbitrary unequal power division, in which the resistors are directly grounded for heat sinking. A through ground via (TGV), connecting the top and bottom sides of the DSPSLs, is used to short the isolation components. Additionally, this property can efficiently improve the broadband matching and isolation bandwidths. To investigate the proposed divider in detail, a set of design equations are derived based on the circuit theory and transmission line theory. The theoretical analysis shows that broadband responses can be obtained as proper frequency ratios are adopted. To verify the proposed concept, a sample divider with a power division of 2:1 is demonstrated. The measured results exhibit a broad bandwidth from 1.19 GHz to 2.19 GHz (59.2%) with a return loss better than 10 dB and port isolation of 18 dB.

A multiphase compensation method with mismatch linearization technique, is presented and demonstrated in a $\Sigma-\Delta$ fractional-N frequency synthesizer. An on-chip delay-locked loop (DLL) and a proposed delay line structure are constructed to provide multiphase compensation on $\Sigma-\Delta$ quantizetion noise. In the delay line structure, dynamic element matching (DEM) techniques are employed for mismatch linearization. The proposed $\Sigma-\Delta$ fractional-N frequency synthesizer is fabricated in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology with 2.14-GHz output frequency and 4-Hz resolution. The die size is 0.92 mm$\times$1.15 mm, and it consumes 27.2 mW. In-band phase noise of -82 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset and out-of-band phase noise of -103 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset are measured with a loop bandwidth of 200 kHz. The settling time is shorter than $25{\mu}s$.

Harmonic/inter-harmonic detection and analysis is an important issue in power system signal processing. This paper proposes a fast algorithm based on matching pursuit (MP) sparse signal decomposition, which can be employed to extract the harmonic or inter-harmonic components of a distorted electric voltage/current signal. In the MP iterations, the method extracts harmonic/inter-harmonic components in order according to the spectrum peak. The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and nonlinear optimization techniques are used in the decomposition to realize fast and accurate estimation of the parameters. First, the frequency estimation value corresponding to the maxim spectrum peak in the present residual is obtained, and the phase corresponding to this frequency is searched in discrete sinusoids dictionary. Then the frequency and phase estimations are taken as initial values of the unknown parameters for Nelder-Mead to acquire the optimized parameters. Finally, the duration time of the disturbance is determined by comparing the inner products, and the amplitude is achieved according to the matching expression of the harmonic or inter-harmonic. Simulations and actual signal tests are performed to illustrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.
