In this paper, an one-dimensional VLSI array for high speed processing of fractal image compression algorithm based the quad-tree partitioning method is proposed. First of all, the single assignment code algorithm is derived from the sequential Fisher's algorithm, and then the data dependence graph(DG) is obtained. The two-dimension array is designed by projecting this DG along the optimal direction and the one-dimensional VLSI array is designed by transforming the obtained two-dimensional array. The number of Input/Output pins in the designed one-dimensional array can be reduced and the architecture of process elements(PEs) can he simplified by sharing the input pins of range and domain blocks and internal arithmetic units of PEs. Also, the utilization of PEs can be increased by reusing PEs for operations to the each block-size. For fractal image compression of 512X512gray-scale image, the proposed array can be processed fastly about 67 times more than sequential algorithm. The operations of the proposed one-dimensional VLSI array are verified by the computer simulation.

In the active SONAR system, various studies have been carried out to enhance the resolution of a received signal. In order to obtain higher resolution for detecting a bottoming cylindrical object, the design of a planar array for SONAR is investigated in this paper. It is necessary to employ planar structures for SONAR array to obtain narrower beam pattern which gives high resolution. In this study, the transmit frequency of each acoustic transducer, which consists of an array is 13 kHz. For efficient detection of a target of an asymmetric size, the concept of areal angle is applied, which considers resolution according to both azimuth and elevation angles in array design. In the design, the areal angle is first investigated to satisfy the resolution requirements, and then based on the value of areal angles, the azimuth angle and the elevation angle are calculated respectively to design an array.

This paper concerns an efficient approach to forming a beam pattern of a microphone array to deal with broadband signals such as speech in a teleconference. A numerical method is proposed to find updated location of sidelobes for equalizaing the sidelobes via perturbation of array parameters such as array weight or microphone spacing. Thus the microphone array is optimized in a Dolph-Chebyshev sense such that directional or background noises incident in an array visual range are eliminated efficiently. It is shown that perturbation of microphone spacing yields an optimum pattern more appropriate for dealing with broadband signals than that of array weight. Also, a novel method is proposed to find a beam pattern which is robust with respect to sidelobe in a scanning situation. Computer simulation results are presented.

Recently, researches about the communication between LED array and the camera (alias 'Visual-MIMO'), have been actively conducted, and the application to the vehicle and a smart phone is expected to be maximized. Since the bit error may occur if the ISI is severe in a LED array, it is necessary to switch from the multiplexing to the diversity mode. In this paper, according to the use or not of a reference array pattern, a method for determining the transition time to the diversity mode is suggested and verified. When using the reference pattern, it determines the transition time to the diversity mode from the multiplexing using the brightness information of the received image. If the reference array pattern is not used, the size of LED array compared to the entire image according to the distance is used and the size of the LED array at the distance of a severe ISI may be used for the determination of transition time to the diversity. Finally, the proposed method is verified through the simulation and hardware experiments as well as by analyzing the performance in accordance with the ISI level and the distance.

This paper demonstrates the digital communication in air using the parametric array. The stepped-plate transducer which is suitable for high-power and high-efficient radiation is used to generate the difference frequency wave with the parametric array. The primary frequencies are selected to 83 kHz and 122 kHz and the resulting difference frequency wave at the frequency of 39 kHz is used for the communication. The modulation method is selected to On-Off Keying method. The waveform and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is measured and analyzed to see the characteristics of the digital communication using the parametric array. The proper distance for the communication using parametric array is about 3 m. The measured beam width of the 3dB SNR reduction was $14^{\circ}$. The possibility of the communication in air using the parametric array is confirmed and the high directional characteristic of the communication using the parametric array is expected to have the advantages for the multi path and the security problems.

To estimate array shape with reference sources in SONAR systems, nearfield signal modeling is required for the reference sources near a towed array. Array shape estimation method based on the nearfield signal modeling generally exploits the spatial covariance matrix of the received reference sources. Among those method, nearfield eigenvector method uses the eigenvector corresponding to the maximum eigenvalue as a steering vector of the reference source. In this paper, we propose a simplified subspace fitting method based on the nearfield signal modeling with spherical wave modeling. Furthermore, we analyze performance of the array shape estimation methods based on the nearfield signal modeling for various environments. The results of the numerical experiments indicate that the simplified subspace fitting method and the nearfield eigenvector method with single reference source shows almost similar performance. Furthermore, the simplified subspace fitting method with 2 reference sources consistently estimates the shape of the array regardless of the incident angle of the reference sources, whereas the nearfield eigenvector method cannot apply for the case of 2 reference sources.

본 논문은 비균일, 비선형 분포를 가지는 비정형 하이드로폰 어레이를 견인하여 목표물로부터 발생된 협대역 신호에 대한 DOAs(Direction-Of-Arrivals) 및 도플러 주파수 정보를 동시에 추정하는 기법을 제안한다. 균일분포 선형 어레이를 견인하는 전통적인 처리기법은 DOA 추정에 국한되어 활용될 수 있다는 한계점을 가지고 있을 뿐 아니라 목표물의 특징을 파악할 수 있는 중요한 정보 중의 하나인 발생신호의 주파수 성분을 추정하기 위해서는 주파수 스펙트럼을 별도로 구성하여야하는 등의 난점을 지니고 있어 조기 경보 능력의 치명적인 제한점을 가질 수 있으며, 하이드로폰 어레이의 구조가 외부적인 환경요인에 의하여 선형을 유지하지 못함으로써 추정능력을 저하시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 한계성을 극복하기 위하여 불규칙한 곡면을 가지고 있는 모함의 측면에 하이드로폰 어레이를 설치하여 목표물의 DOA 뿐만 아니라 모함의 이동에 의해 목표물과 사이에서 발생하는 도플러 주파수까지 동시에 추정하는 기법을 제안한다 특별히, 도플러 주파수 추정은 취득신호에 대한 퓨리에 변환과정을 거치지 않고 추정함으로써 계산량을 감소시킬 수 있다.
