In this paper, we propose an optimal 2-dimensional construction algorithm of a code family for a high-speed optical code division multiple access network. The optimal 2-D code family generated by search algorithm has better spectrum efficiency than previous codes, having relatively many code sets with short code length and the same or lower BER. Using the optimal 2-D code, OCDMA systems make it possible to utilize the spectrum more efficiently than WDM systems. The probability of bit error for high-speed OCDMA transmissions is calculated as a function of the number of users in the presence of receiver and shot noise(additive white Gaussian noise).

본 논문은 2D/3D 영상 처리에서 깊이지도 생성을 위한 Optical flow에서 레벨을 간소화하여 연산량을 감소시키고 객체의 고유벡터를 이용하여 영상의 잡음을 제거하는 연구이다. Optical flow는 움직임추정 알고리즘의 하나로 두 프레임간의 픽셀의 변화 벡터 값을 나타내며 블록 매칭과 같은 알고리즘에 비해 정확도가 높다. 그러나 기존의 Optical flow는 긴 연산 시간과 카메라의 이동이나 조명의 변화에 민감한 문제가 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 연산 시간의 단축을 위한 레벨 간소화 과정을 거치고 영상에서 고유벡터를 갖는 영역에 한해 Optical flow를 적용하여 잡음을 제거하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법으로 2차원 영상을 3차원 입체 영상으로 변환하였고 SSIM(Structural SIMilarity Index)으로 최종 생성된 영상의 오차율을 분석하였다.

The boundary noise in image syntheses using DIBR consists of noisy pixels that are separated from foreground objects into background region. It is generated mainly by edge misalignment between the reference image and depth map or blurred edge in the reference image. Since hole areas are generally filled with neighboring pixels, boundary noise adjacent to the hole is the main cause of quality degradation in synthesized images. To solve this problem, a new boundary noise removal algorithm using a preprocessing of the depth map is proposed in this paper. The most common way to eliminate boundary noise caused by boundary misalignment is to modify depth map so that the boundary of the depth map can be matched to that of the reference image. Most conventional methods, however, show poor performances of boundary detection especially in blurred edge, because they are based on a simple boundary search algorithm which exploits signal gradient. In the proposed method, a two-step hierarchical approach for boundary detection is adopted which enables effective boundary detection between the transition and background regions. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms conventional ones subjectively and objectively.

This paper introduces a new P wave arrival time determination algorithm of acoustic emission (AE) suitable to identify P waves with low signal-to-noise ratio generated in rock masses around the high-level radioactive waste disposal repositories. The algorithms adopted for this paper were amplitude threshold picker, Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), two step AIC, and Hinkley criterion. The elastic waves were generated by Pencil Lead Break test on a granite sample, then mixed with white noise to make it difficult to distinguish P wave artificially. The results obtained from amplitude threshold picker, AIC, and Hinkley criterion produced relatively large error due to the low signal-to-noise ratio. On the other hand, two step AIC algorithm provided the correct results regardless of white noise so that the accuracy of source localization was more improved and could be satisfied with the error range.

Conventional acoustic echo cancellers using ES algorithm have simple structure and fast convergence speed compared with those using NLMS algorithm, but they are very weak to external noise because ES algorithm updates the adaptive filter taps based on average energy reduction rate of room impulse response in specific acoustical condition. To solve this problem, in this paper, a new update algorithm for acoustic echo canceller with stepsize matrix generator is proposed. A set of stepsizes is determined based on residual error energy which is estimated by two moving average operators, and applied to the echo canceller in matrix from, resulting in improved convergence speed. Simulations in various noise condition show that the proposed algorithm improves the robustness of acoustic echo canceller to external noise.

In this paper, we proposed an algorithm that improves tone quality of noisy audio signals by using ICA(Independent Component Analysis) algorithm and perceptual filters. Many algorithms have been proposed to eliminate the noise from the audio signals, such as spectral subtraction method, perceptual filter, etc. The perceptual filter uses a noise that is acquired from silent ranges in the input signal. In this case, the improvement rate of tone quality decreases if the noise energy is changed by the environmental variation in a signal frame. But the proposed method estimates a noise that is changed at each frame using ICA algorithm. The estimated noise is applied to perceptual filter. To show the performance of the proposed algorithm, several tests are performed to various input signals. With the proposed algorithm, we could confirm the enhancement of tone quality in terms of segmental SNR (SSNR), noise-to-mask ratio (NMR) and Degradation Category Rating (DCR) test.

The use of an error-correcting code is essential in digital communication systems where the channel is noisy. Unless a receiver has accurate channel coding parameters, it becomes difficult to decode the digitized encoding bits correctly. In this paper, estimation algorithm for RM(Reed-Muller) codes using FHT (Fast Hadamard algorithm) is proposed. The proposed algorithm estimates the channel coding parameters of RM codes and then decodes the codes using the characteristic of FHT. And we also verify the algorithm by performing intensive computer simulation in additive white gaussian noise (AWGN) channel.

Noise reduction processes that reduce or eliminate noise (caused by a variety of reasons) in noise contaminated image is an important theme in image processing fields. Many studies are being conducted on noise removal processes due to the importance of distinguishing between noise added to a pure image and the unique characteristics of original images. Adaptive filter and sigma filter are typical noise reduction filters used to reduce or eliminate noise; however, their effectiveness is affected by accurate noise estimation. This study generates a distribution of noise contaminating image based on a Dirichlet normal mixture model and presents a Bayesian approach to distinguish the characteristics of an image against the noise. In particular, to distinguish the distribution of noise from the distribution of characteristics, we suggest algorithms to develop a Bayesian inference and remove noise included in an image.

As cross-coupling capacitance generated in transmission line has been an important issue in VLSI world, a couple of ATPG algorithms has been proposed. However they were studied only for a simple single-line effect problem, so it cost so much time for an unsatisfying test generation efficiency. In this paper, we studied a noise model for multiple affected lines and generated test patterns in a short time. This paper proposes a crosstalk model affected by multiple tranmission lines and implemented an ATPG algorithm for detection of crosstalk noise faults. We modeled the crosstalk noise by multiple transmission line and made a truth table for this. We implemented an ATPG algorithm based on PODEM and revealed the results.
