목적： RF 자기장이 존재하는 공간이 좁을수록 신호 대 잡음비가 증가한다. 이것을 이용하여, 기존의 표면 코일보다 RF 자기장의 공간을 좁혀서 코일 근방에서 신호 대 잡음비를 개선할 수 있는 표면 코일을 개발한다. 대상 및 방법： 기존의 표면 코일의 RF 자기장은 쌍극자(Dipole) 자기장 형태이다. 쌍극자 모드는 자기장의 세기가 1/r$^3$로 감소한다 하지만 자기장을 사중극자(Quadrupole) 형태도 발생시키면, 1/r$^{5}$ 로 감소하게 되어, 극자(pole)로부터 먼 곳에서는 자기장의 감소가 매우 급격히 일어난다. 극자 근방에서는 쌍극자와 사중극자 자기장의 세기 차이가 거의 없다. 이런 원리들을 이용하여 표면코일의 형태를 사중극자 자기장이 발생하도록 제작하여, 코일로부터 먼 곳의 신호는 코일에 검출되지 못하게 하였다. 그러므로 신호 대 잡음비에 큰 이득을 볼 수 있다.

Electrocardiogram(ECG) signal noise as well as conducting other bio-signal measurement were generated. It was intened to enhance the accuracy of cadiac disease diagnosis with removing signal white-noise. Sampling signal was made with generating white-noise. The noise were removed using wavelet transforms and thresholding. Removed noise were compared numerical using SNR(signal to noise ratio). The results compared SNR showed that SURE method was 5.931, 4.9301 in 3, 5dB noise, uninversal was 3.6590, 1.9698 in 7, 9dB noise. De-noising by Thresholding removed noise effectively. ECG signal is expected to improve the accuracy of cadiac desease dianosis.

Purpose: Electroretinogram(ERG) signal noise as well as conducting other bio-signal measurement were generated. It was intened to enhance the accuracy of retinal-related diagnosis with removing signal noise. Methods: Sampling signal was made with generating 60 Hz noise and white noise. The noise were removed using wavelet transforms and bandpass filter. De-noising frequency was compared with Fourier transform spectrum. Removed noises were compared numerically using SNR(signal to noise ratio). Results: The result compared Fourier transform spectrum was showed that 60 Hz noise removed completely and most of white noise was removed by wavelet transforms. 60 Hz and the white noise remained using bandpass filters. The result compared SNR showed that wavelet transforms was 22.8638 and bandpass filter was 4.0961. Conclusions: Wavelet transform showed less signal distortion in removing noise. ERG signal is expected to improve the accuracy of retinal-related diagnosis.

This paper deals with application of wavelet transform, which is known to be good for time-frequency analysis, in order to detect the underwater transient signals embedded in ambient noise. A new detector of acoustic transient signals is presented. It combines two detection tools: wavelet analysis and higher-order statistics. Using both techniques, the detection of the transient signal is possible in low signal to noise ratio condition. The proposed algorithm uses the wavelet transform of a partition of the signal on frequency domain, and then higher-order statistics tests the Gaussian nature of the segments.

In the conventional photorefractive joint transform correlator(PRJTC), the intensity ration of input signal-to-pump beam should be large enough to saturate two-beam coupling transfer function to obtain a desired correlation result. As a result, the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) of correlation result is decreased in a noisy input image. In this paper, we propose the improved method for increasing the SNR of the PRJTC by using the characteristics of BaTiO$_3$. We stop the energy transfer saturating by low intensity ratio of input beam and realize a short length of effective interaction in BaTiO$_3$ by making large incident angle of the signal beam. So the gain in high frequency area is decreased and the gain in low frequency area comes up to the saturation gain of the beam coupling transfer function. Therefore the SNR is improved in noisy input image and the PRJTC can be easily realized by low intensity ratio of input beam.

This paper proposes an improved do-noising method using multi-thresholding function based on translation-invariant (W) wavelet proposed by Donoho et al. for underwater radiated noise measurement. The traditional wavelet thresholding de-noising method causes Pseudo-Gibbs phenomena near singularities due to discrete wavelet transform. In order to suppress Pseudo-Gibbs Phenomena, a do-noising method combining multi-thresholding function with the translation-invariant wavelet transform is proposed in this paper. The multi-thresholding function is a modified soft-thresholding to each node according to the discriminated threshold so as to reject かon external noise and white gaussian noise. It is verified by numerical simulation. And the experimental results are confirmed through sea-trial using multi-single sensors.

The Satellite Electro-Optic Payload System needsspecial requirements with the conditions of limited power consumption and the space environment of solar radiation. The acquired image quality should be mainly depend on the GSD (Ground Sampled Distance), SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio), and MTF (Modulation Transfer Function). On the well-manufactured sensor level, the thermal noise is removed on ASP (Analog Signal Processing) using the CDS (Corrective Double Sampling); the noise signal from the image sensor can be reduced from the offset signals based on the pre-pixels and the dark-pixels. The non-uniformity shall be corrected with gain, offset, and correction parameter of the image sensor pixel characteristic on the sensor control system. This paper describes the SNR enhancement method of the satellite EOS payload using the mentioned noise remove processes on the system design and operation, which is verified by tests and simulations.

Voice activity detection is very important process that voice activity separated form noisy speech signal for speech enhance. Over the past few years, many studies have been made on voice activity detection, but it has poor performance in low signal to noise ratio environment or fickle noise such as car noise. In this paper, it proposed new voice activity detection algorithm using ensemble variance based on wavelet band entropy and soft thresholding method. We conduct a survey in a lot of signal to noise ratio environment of car noise to evaluate performance of the proposed algorithm and confirmed performance of the proposed algorithm.

고차 통계 방법을 이용하여 잡음이 섞인 음성 신호에서 피치를 구하는 방법과 이를 이용하여 유성음 및 무성음 구간을 구분하는 방법을 구현하고 그 결과를 기술하였다. 고차 통계의 일종인 3차 cumulant 함수의 경우 Gaussian 또는 대칭적인 분포를 갖는 잡음 신호를 음성신호로부터 효과적으로 분리하여 제거시키는 특징을 가지고 있으며, 이러한 특징을 이용하면 잡음 환경에서 여러 가지 음성 특징 파라메터들을 보다 신뢰도 높게 추정할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 dam성 신호의 3차 cumulant 함수의 자기상관함수로부터 음성의 피치 주기를 추정하였으며, 피치 위치에서의 normalized peak 크기에 의해 유성음과 무성음을 구분하였다. 또한 성능 비교를 위해 음성 신호 자체의 자기 상관 함수로부터 역시 피치 주기 및 유성음/무성음 구분을 수행하였다. 백색 및 유색 Gaussian 잡음 환경에서의 음성의 피치 주기 추정 실험 결과 SNR가 낮은 경우에 3차 cumulant를 이용한 방법이 2차 통계에 비해 우수한 성능을 나타내었다. 또한 동일한 잡음 환경에서의 유성음/무성음 판별 시험에서도 3차 cumulant를 이용한 방법이 기존의 2차 통계를 이용한 방법에 비해 성능이 크게 향상된 결과를 얻었다.
