This paper proposes a wavelet transform- based image compression method using the energy distribution. The proposed method Involves two steps. First, we use a wavelet transform for the subband decomposition. The original image Is decomposed into one low resolution subimage and three high frequency subimages. Each high frequency subimages have horizontal, vertical, and diagonal directional edges. The wavelet transform is luther applied to these high frequency subimages. Resultant transformed subimages have different energy distributions corresponding to different orientation of the high pass filter. Second, for higer compression ratio and computational effciency, we discard some subimages with small energy. The remaining subimages are encoded using either DPCM or quantization followed by entropy coding. Experimental results show that the proposed coding scheme has better performance in the peak signal to noise ratio(PSNR) and higher compression ratio than conventional image coding method using the wavelet transform followed by the straightforward vector quantization.

In this paper, the split-ring DGS resonator is proposed and its equivalent circuit are analyzed to design the low pass filter. Compared with the conventional dumbell DGS cell, this structure has a flat fluctuation in low frequency range and a sharp slop at edge frequency. The out-band suppression of the SRR-DGS cell can be improved by placing the open stubs on the conductor line which operates as parallel capacitances. Making use of equivalent circuit analytical method, the characteristics of the improved SRR DGS cell are investigated and applied to design compact low pass filter, which has a low in-band loss, sharp slop and high suppression of more than 35dB within a wide out-band frequency range. The dependence of the transmission characteristic on the dimension of a split ring, such as side-length and split-gap, is analyzed in detail. In addition, an improved SRR DGS cell model with open stubs loaded on the conductor line is then presented to improve the out-band suppression. By using the equivalent-circuit analytical method, an S-band microstrip low-pass filter with perfect low-pass characteristic and high out-band suppression is designed and fabricated.

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.

본 논문에서는 UHF TV방송 전 대역 Ch.14(473MHz)$\sim$Ch.69(803MHz)까지의 모든 채널에서 동작하는 유도결합구조의 RF동조회로를 설계하였다. 기존 자기결합구조의 RF동조회로는 PCB 양면을 사용하여야 하고 수작업으로 Air Coil 간격을 조절해야만 한다. 부품의 집적화와 양산 효율성 측면에서 자기결합구조의 단점을 해결할 수 있도록 하기 위해 본 논문에서 제안한 유도결합구조는 수동부품인 칩인덕터와 칩커패시터 및 가변용량 다이오드만을 사용하여 RF동조회로를 설계하였다. 칩인덕터는 Air Coil에 비해 낮은 소자 Q값을 가진다. 상대적으로 낮은 Q값을 갖는 칩인덕터를 사용하기 때문에 이를 보완하기 위해 Peaking용 칩인덕터를 설계 디자인에 적용하였다. 가변형 대역통과필터로 동작하기 위해 자기결합구조와 동일하게 가변용량 다이오드를 이용하였다. UHF TV방송 전 대역(470$\sim$806MHz)에서 -2.88 $\sim$ -3.97dB의 삽입손실 특성 및 -8dB 이상의 반사손실 특성과 330MHz의 중심주파수 변화 범위를 갖는다. 현재 상용중인 지상파 튜너에 적용되고 있는 자기결합구조의 RF동조회로를 대치하여 적용될 수 있을 것이다.

In this paper, a compact-narrow open stub band-pass filter with parasitic-signal of low frequency range and second harmonics rejected using the parallel coupled line and FLCLM(Frquency Locked Controlled Length Method) is proposed. The characteristic of the parallel coupled line can be rejection for parasitic-signal of low frequency range and second harmonics. In last filter of experimental results show that insertion loss is 1.2 dB and return loss is 14.8 dB, and the fractional bandwidth is 10 % at the center frequency of 5.8 GHz. In additional, the rejection for parasitic-signal of low frequency range and second harmonics are 28.9 dB and 28.8 dB, respectively.

A novel tunable bandstop filter was proposed. It is composed of a right-handed transmission line, which has lowpass characteristics, and a left-handed transmission line which has highpass characteristics. Dispersion relations for the unit cells of RHTL and LHTL were derived by the method of ABCD parameter analysis. Varactor diodes and chip inductors were used to make the unit cells of RHTL and LHTL. A tunable bandstop filter was designed and fabricated by the parallel connection of RHTL and LHTL. The measured results of the proposed tunable bandstop filter are agreed well with the simulated results.

In this paper, the bandpass filter for ITS system of 5.8 GHz is proposed by using the dual-mode resonator with the radial stub. As alternating the open stub with the radial stub, the size of the dual mode resonator can be reduced about 39.6% and the out-of-band characteristics of the bandpass filter using dual mode resonator can be enhanced from 19.4 dB to 29.1 dB by using the stub of $6.9{\Omega}$ i.e. realized by parallel two radial stubs with $60^{\circ}$ angle. The fabricated bnadpass filter using the dual mode resonator has the center frequency of 5.72 GHz with the fractional bandwidth of 4.1%. Also, the filter has the insertion loss and return loss of 1.79 dB and 19.4 dB, respectively.

In this paper, a microstrip dual mode band pass filter with doubly fed line is proposed. The proposed filter consists of a corner truncated patch with right crossed slots and doubly fed lines. In general, the resonator with the right crossed slots simultaneously has size reduction and spurious response suppression. In order to improve the rejection performance in out of its higher stop band, the dual mode resonator is excited by using doubly fed line. Details of the filter characteristics are described, and both simulated and measured results of the designed filter are presented.
