초록

본 논문은 임펄스성 잡음에 견실한 시간 지연을 추정 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 Generalized Cross Correlation - Phase Transform(GCC-PHAT) 방법에 비선형 전처리와 주파수 영역 저역 통과 필터를 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 GCC-PHAT의 연산 과정을 DFT로 다시 해석함으로써 GCC-PHAT에서 시간 지연 추정에 실제 사용되는 유효한 주파수 대역이 있음을 파악하고, 저역 통과 필터 사용하여 유효 대역만을 사용하면 잡음 성분을 줄여서 시간 추정 성능을 향상시킬 수 있음을 보인다. 제안한 방법을 임펄스성 잡음 환경에서 전통적인 GCC-PHAT와 비교함으로써 추정 견실성이 향상됨을 보인다.

The proposed method uses Generalized Cross Correlation - Phase Transform (GCC-PHAT) method with nonlinear preprocessing and a frequency domain low-pass filter. In this paper, by reinterpreting the calculation process of GCC-PHAT as DFT, we derive that there is an effective frequency band used for time delay estimation in GCC-PHAT, and by using only the effective band using a low-pass filter, the noise component is reduced and it improvesthe time delay performance in impulsive noise environments. By comparing the proposed method with the traditional GCC-PHAT in an impulsive noise environment, we show that the GCC-PHAT becomes more robust to the impulsive noise.
