Recently, long pulses are transmitted for target detection in active sonar application. Matched filtering implemented by simple convolution algorithm, requires massive computational power for long replica. The computational loads are reduced significantly by implementing the convolution in the frequency domain with overlap add method, but the performance degrades for specified input/output system delay which constrains the size of FFT function. For performance improvement, the replica could be partitioned into uniform blocks (FDL) by re-using IFFT operations, or variable blocks of increasing length (MC) by using the largest possible blocks to calculate the convolution. In this paper, by combining the strong points of the two methods, we propose a new filter partition structure that allows for further optimization of the previous two methods.

A high-Performance scalable speech codec generally requires a very low-rate first layer and a fine granule second layer, and this codec can be implemented with the harmonic codec and the MDCT-based transform codec for each layer. In this structure, however. each codec requires independent frequency transform and the time delay of each codec is accumulated. resulting in long time delay for the overall codec. In this paper, new MDCT structure in the second layer is Proposed. where MDCT is forced to share the look-ahead region of the first layer in order to prevent the time delay accumulation and the resulting functional error of MDCT is analyzed and removed after IMDCT The Proposed delayless MDCT requires no additional bits and Provides the equivalent coding performance with the reduced time delay, yielding a meaningful enhancement of the overall codec.

This paper presents a new design method of the Ultra-Wide-Band BandPass Filter using the CRLH-TL(Composite Right- and Left-Handed Transmission-line) having the Metamaterials' properties. Instead of the periodic type or many cells of the CRLH-TL, only the unit cell is used to miniaturize the target component, which can not be realized by the conventional quarter guided-wavelength resonator-based filters. Particularly, the strong coupling essential to the Ultra Wide Band is enabled by the interdigital coupled lines between the grounded stubs. The proposed design scheme is validated by the electromagnetic simulation and measurement of the fabricated filter which shows the total size of 'the guided-wavelength/9.4', the 100 % fractional bandwidth for the UWB, the insertion loss of less than 1 dB and the flat group-delay.
