이동통신망과 같이 제한된 대역폭에서 실시간 멀티미디어 스트리밍 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 보다 낮은 비트율로 비디오와 오디오 데이터를 압축하여야 한다. 또한 대부분의 대역이 비디오 데이터를 위해 할당되어 있으므로 제한된 대역폭만이 오디오에 할당되게 된다. 오디오 데이터를 낮은 비트율로 압축하기 위해서는 압축율이 높은 알고리즘을 사용하거나, 표본화 주파수 (sampling frequency)를 낮춤으로써 데이터 양을 줄여 낮은 비트율로 부호화하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위해서 낮은 표본화 주파수로 오디오 신호를 압축하고, 낮은 표본화주파수를 사용함으로서 발생하는 대역폭의 손실은 소량의 부가정보를 이용하여 복원해 줌으로써 음질을 향상시키는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 높은 주파수의 스펙트럼을 복원하기 위하여 부호화단에서 낮은 주파수 대역과 다운 샘플링 과정 중에 손실되는 높은 주파수 대역간의 에너지비를 바크밴드에 구한 후 이를 부호화하여 복호화 단으로 전달하고 이를 이용하여 높은 주파수 성분을 복원하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법을 이용하면 10%∼20% 정도의 추가적인 비트를 사용하면서 기존의 방식보다 세그멘탈 신호대 잡음비는 1㏈∼3㏈의 성능 개선을 보였으며, 주관적인 MOS 듣기 평가를 수행한 결과 기존의 방식보다 음질이 향상됨을 확인하였다. 또한 본 논문에서 제안한 방법은 주파수 영역에서 압축을 수행하는 모든 오디오 부호화 방식에도 적용이 가능하다.

본 논문에서는 오디오 컨텐츠 저작권 보안을 위하여 MP3 공격에 강인한 워터마킹 방법을 제안한다. 일반적인 주파수 도메인에서의 워터마킹 방법인 Cox의 스프레드 스펙트럼 방법에서는 DCT후 값이 큰 저주파수의 계수에 순차적으로 워터마크를 삽입하였다. 임의의 주파수 계수에 삽입하는 방법은 효과적이지 못하므로, 본 논문에서는 심리음향 모델을 분석하여 MP3 공격시 손실이 적은 주파수 계수에 적응적인 함수를 적용하여 가중치를 부여한 후 계수에 워터마크를 삽입하는 방법을 제안한다. 다양한 음원에 대하여 실험한 결과, 제안한 방법은 기존의 방법들에 비해 워터마크의 보존하고 원본 음원의 왜곡을 줄이는 두 가지 측면 모두 좋은 결과를 나타내었다.

A VLSI architecture of an Ogg Vorbis decoder is proposed : which is dedicated to portable audio appliances. Referring to the computational cost analysis of the decoding processes, the LSP (Line Spectrum Pair) process, which takes more than 50% of the total processing time, can be regarded as a bottleneck to achieve realtime processing by embedded Processors. Thus in our decoder a specific hardware architecture is devised for the LSP process so as to be integrated into a single chip together with an ARM7TDMI processor. In addition, in order to reduce the total hardware cost, instead of the floating point arithmetic, the fixed point arithmetic is adopted. The LSP module has been implemented with 9,740 gates by using a Virtual Silicon 0.l5$\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS technology, which operates at 58.8MHz with the total CPU load reduced by 57%. It is also verified that the use of the fixed point arithmetic does not incur any significant sound distortion.

Speaker identification system basically functions by comparing spectral energy of an individual production model with that of an input signal. This study aimed to develop a new speaker identification system from two parameters from the spectral energy of numeric sounds: difference sum and correlation coefficient. A narrow-band spectrogram yielded more stable spectral energy across time than a wide-band one. In this paper, we collected empirical data from four male speakers and tested the speaker identification system. The subjects produced 18 combinations of three-digit numeric. sounds !en times each. Five productions of each three-digit number were statistically averaged to make a model for each speaker. Then, the remaining five productions were tested on the system. Results showed that when the threshold for the absolute difference sum was set to 1200, all the speakers could not pass the system while everybody could pass if set to 2800. The minimum correlation coefficient to allow all to pass was 0.82 while the coefficient of 0.95 rejected all. Thus, both threshold levels can be adjusted to the need of speaker identification system, which is desirable for further study.

Measurement of noise is not only to know the information of acoustic pressure but to assess human response to noise. To find human response to transportation noise through the laboratory study we have to measure and reproduce noise. The method of noise reproduction is largely divided into monaural and binaural techniques. But human fundamentally hears sound through both ears, referred as binaural hearing. Binaural signal is different from monaural signal because it includes more information of physical phenomena like acoustical reflection, diffraction and refraction. Especially head and pinna play an important role in perceiving change of signal origin. So, the amplitude of binaural signal is higher than that of monaural signal and spectrum of both signals is discriminated. Most of assessment and regulation of transportation noise are, however, based on monaural measurement techniques. The quantitative difference between monaural and binaural measurement is investigated in this study. Comparison on several transportation noisesshows defect of information in monaural measurements.

Air foil bearings have been attempted for application to industrial turbo machines, since they have several advantages over oil bearings in terms of endurance, simplicity, environment-friendliness, efficiency, sound and vibration, and small turbo machines with air foil bearings are in the market as the result. Recently, researches on widening the application spectrum of air foil bearings are in progress worldwide. In this paper, a 300 HP class turbo blower using air foil bearings is introduced. The turbo blower has a high speed PMSM(Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) driving a compressor, and air flow rate is designed to be $180\;m^3/min$ at pressure ratio of 1.6. The maximum rotational speed is set to 17,000 RPM to maximize the total efficiency with the result that the weight of rotor assembly is 26kg, which is expected to be the largest turbo machine with air foil bearings ever developed in the world.

The cross-flow fan which constitutes a fan-duct system with a stabilizer and a scroll casing is widely used in many air-ventilating and air-conditioning devices. Its ooperating points of high efficiency and loading conditions frequently induce a annoying sharp tonal component of discrete frequency on the noise spectrum, which is open called as a BPF(Blade-Passing-Frequency) noise and degrades the sound quality of the devices. this BPF tone has been one of the defects of the cross-flow fan. This study proposes two methods in order to reduce this tonal noise component, which are the random distributions of the fan blades and the skewed shapes of the stabilizer. The proposed methods are verified by a simple analytical model and are applied in manufacturing the cross-flow fan and the stabilizer samples. Some experiments are carried out to verify the reduction capability of BPF tones of above two schemes and the experimental results are analyzed. The comparison between two method is also carried out.

The fabrication process of fiber placement system of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) requires real time process control and reliable inspection to ensure quality by preventing defects such as delamination and void. Therefore, novel non-contact inspection technique is required during the non-destructive evaluation in a fiber placement system. For the inspection of delamination in CFRP, various methods to receive laser-generated ultrasound were applied by using piezoelectric transducer, air-coupled transducer, wavelet transform and scanning laser ultrasonic technique. Laser-generated ultrasound was received with a conventional piezoelectric sensor in contacting manner. Then signal characteristics due to defects were analyzed to find a factor for detecting defects. Air-coupled transducer was used for reception of laser-generated guided wave using linear slit array in order to generate high frequency guided wave. And line scan technique was used to confirm the capability of on-line application. The high frequency component of laser-generated guided wave received with piezoelectric sensor disappeared after propagating through delamination region. Nevertheless, it was failed to receive high frequency guided wave in using air-coupled transducer. The first peak of the frequency spectrum under 100kHz in the delamination region is higher than in the sound region. By using this feature, the line scanned frequency data were acquired in fully non-contact generation and reception of ultrasound. This method was proved as useful technique for detecting delamination in CFRP.

The nursing vocalization of domestic pigs(Landrace$\times$Yorkshire) was investigated with respect to common features. All vocalizations uttered during nursings in 5 sows at 5 days after farrowing were recorded and 305 grunts were processed in a spectrograph. The sow's repeated grunting during nursing can be regarded as a contact call and a signal of the mother to start and synchronize the suckling behavior of the piglets. Analysis in the time domain revealed the gross structure of the call, whereas in the frequency domain the fine structure of single grunts was investigated. Nursing interval, duration of nursing behavior, duration of grunt, grunt rate per 10 seconds, fundamental frequency, 1 formant, 2 formant, 3 formant, 4 formant and spectrum were investigated. The results showed that mean interval between the nursing following one another was 25, 4.6 min and duration of nursing behavior was 3.2 $\pm$ 0.7 min. Average duration of grunt was 203.9 $\pm$ 63.6 ms. The formant contours could be identified. The nursing behavior might be disturbed by the grunts of alien sow.
