본 연구에서는 블루투스 비콘이 송신하는 저전력 블루투스 신호의 세기와 전파 방향성에 따른 수신 강도(Received Signal Strength Index, RSSI) 변화를 분석하였다. 자수정 지하광산에서 스마트폰을 이용하여 저전력 블루투스 신호의 RSSI 변화를 조사한 결과, 무지향성 비콘의 경우 비콘과 스마트폰 사이의 거리가 감소할수록 신호 세기가 증가할수록 RSSI 평균이 점차 증가하였다. 지향성 비콘의 RSSI 평균은 비콘과 스마트폰이 마주 보는 각도와는 연관성 없이 변화하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 블루투스 비콘 기반의 지하광산 근접경고시스템 개발을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

In a conventional adaptive echo canceller, an ADF(Adaptive Digital Filter) with TDL(Tapped-Delay Line) structure modelling the echo path uses the LMS(Least Mean Square) algorithm to compute the coefficients, and NET detector using energy comparison method prevents the ADF to update the coefficients during the periods of the NET signal presence. The convergence speed of the LMS algorithm depends on the eigenvalue spread ratio of the reference signal and NET detector using the energy comparison method yields poor detection performance if the magnitude of the NET signal is small. This paper presents a new adaptive echo canceller which uses the pre-whitening filter to improve the convergence speed of the LMS algorithm. The pre-whitening filter is realized by using a low-order lattice predictor. Also, a new NET signal detection algorithm is presented, where the start point of the NET signal is detected by computing the cross-correlation coefficient between the primary input and the ADF output while the end point is detected by using the energy comparison method. The simulation results show that the convergence speed of the proposed adaptive echo canceller is faster than that of the conventional echo canceller and the cross-correlation coefficient yields more accurate detection of the start point of the NET signal.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a new adaptive echo canceller improving convergence speed and near-end-talker detection performance of the conventional echo canceller. In a conventional adaptive echo canceller, an adaptive digital filter with TDL(Tapped-Delay Line) structure modelling the echo path uses the LMS(Least Mean Square) algorithm to cote the coefficients, and NET detector using energy comparison method prevents the adaptive digital filter to update the coefficients during the periods of the NET signal presence. The convergence speed of the LMS algorithm depends on the eigenvalue spread ratio of the reference signal and NET detector using the energy comparison method yields poor detection performance if the magnitude of the NET signal is small. This paper presents a new adaptive echo canceller which uses the pre-whitening filter to improve the convergence speed of the LMS algorithm. The pre-whitening filter is realized by using a low-order lattice predictor. Also, a new NET signal detection algorithm is presented, where the start point of the NET signal is detected by computing the cross-correlation coefficient between the primary input and the ADF(Adaptive Digital Filter) output while the end point is detected by using the energy comparison method. The simulation results show that the convergence speed of the proposed adaptive echo canceller is faster than that of the conventional echo canceller and the cross-correlation coefficient yield more accurate detection of the start point of the NET signal.

The pre-emphasis is an essential process for speech signal processing. Widely used two methods are the typical method using a fixed value near unity and te optimal method using the autocorrelation ratio of the signal. This study proposes a new pre-emphasis method using the short-term energy difference of speech signal, which can effectively compensate the glottal source characteristics and lip radiation characteristics. Using the proposed pre-emphasis, speech analysis, such as spectrum estimation, formant detection, is performed and the results are compared with those of the conventional two pre-emphasis methods. The speech analysis with 5 single vowels showed that the proposed method enhanced the spectral shapes and gave nearly constant formant frequencies and could escape the overlapping of adjacent two formants. comparison with FFT spectra had verified the above results and showed the accuracy of the proposed method. The computational complexity of the proposed method reduced to about 50% of the optimal method.

In order to know the effect of surface irregularity in the detection of local wall thinning of pipeline using pulsed eddy current (PEC), the lift-off effects on PEC signal have been investigated. Three kinds of parameters in the PEC signal, which is "peak amplitude", "time to peak amplitude" and "time to zero crossing" are analyzed to separate the lift-off effects in the PEC signal. The distance from sensor to the bottom of sample which is the total thickness of combined insulator and sample is kept constant. The magnitude of the differential peak amplitude is increased with increasing sample thickness, the time to peak amplitude is increased with increasing the sample thickness. To determine the effect of lift-off, a number of balanced transient responses combining wall thinning locations and lift-off distances were plotted.

Obesity is a worldwide epidemic as well as being a major risk factor for diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and several types of cancers. Obesity is mainly due to the overgrowth of adipose tissue arising from an imbalance between energy intake and energy expenditure. Adipose tissue, primarily composed of adipocytes, plays a key role in maintaining whole body energy homeostasis. In view of the treatment of obesity and obesity-related diseases, it is critical to understand the detailed signal transduction mechanisms of adipogenic differentiation. Adipogenic differentiation is tightly regulated by many key signal cascades, including insulin signaling. These signal cascades generally transfer or amplify the signal by using serial tyrosine phosphorylations. Thus, protein tyrosine kinases and protein tyrosine phosphatases are closely related to adipogenic differentiation. Compared to protein tyrosine kinases, protein tyrosine phosphatases have received little attention in adipogenic differentiation. This review aims to highlight the involvement of protein tyrosine phosphatases in adipogenic differentiation and the possibility of protein tyrosine phosphatases as drugs to target obesity.

XeCl 레이저 증폭기의 포화 에너지 밀도와 소신호 이득계수를 활성기체의 압력을 변화시키면서 측정하였다. Xe이 30mb, He이 2000mb일 때, HCl이 34, 52, 73, 92으로 압력이 높아짐에 따라 포화 에너지 밀도는 1.3, 1.45, 2.0, $2.3mJ/\textrm{cm}^2$로 거의 선형적으로 증가하였지만 소신호 이득계수는 6.5, 7.5, 7.0, 7.0%/cm로 거의 변화하지 않았다.

전 세계적으로 선박의 배출물에 의한 환경 오염에 관심이 증가하여, 에너지 효율을 높여 선박 배출물 감소와 연료 소비 효율을 높이는 시스템 개발에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 각 시스템은 소형 선박에서는 실증될 수 있으나, 대형 선박의 경우에는 실증에 대한 여건이 마땅치 않다. 현실적으로 대형 선박에 real time으로 구동되는 에너지 관리 시스템 제어기를 테스트하기 위해서는 시뮬레이터를 통한 테스트를 수행해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 각 제어 시스템과 에너지 관리 시스템을 연동할 수 있도록 각 신호를 Modbus TCP/IP에 맞게 주소를 설정하였으며, 신호의 흐름에 따라 알고리즘을 구성하였다. 또한, 각 제어기가 선박에서 수집하는 신호를 인위적으로 발생시킬 수 있도록 신호 발생기를 설계 및 제작하였다. 시뮬레이터 제작 및 연동 결과 real time으로 운용되는 각 제어기는 역할을 알맞게 수행하였으며, 선박용 에너지 관리 시스템의 알고리즘의 적용이 적절히 수행됨을 확인하였다.

In this paper, I would like to propose a dividing method by estimating the inflection points and the average magnitude energy in speech signals. The method proposed in this paper gave not only a satisfactory solution for the problems on dividing method by zero-crossing rate, but could estimate the feature of the transient period after dividing the starting point and transient period in speech signals before steady state. In the results of the experiment carried out with monosyllabic speech, it was found that even through speech samples indicated in D.C. level, the staring and ending point of the speech signals were exactly divided by the method. In addition to the results, I could compare with the features, such as the length of transient period, the short term energy, the frequency characteristics, in each speech signal.

Due to the low loss, broadband and accurate short time delay properties of optical fiber, it has attracted as a delay medium for high speed and broad-band signal processing. In this paper, we consider the coherent optical fiber filter of IIR lattice structure, which uses coherent light sources and consists of directional couplers whose coupling coefficients are restricted between 0 and 1. Considering restrictions of directional coupler, the design formulae and condition for realibility of optical fiber filter of IIR lattice structure which makes the optimal use of optical signal energy are derived.
