잡음 재밍과 톤 재밍의 혼합 재밍이 존재하는 Rayleigh 페이딩 환경에서 재머상태정보(JSI)를 이용한 FH/MFSK 시스템의 성능 향상을 분석하였다. 송신 신호와 재머 성분은 각각 Rayleigh 페이딩 환경의 영향을 받으며, 재머상태 정보는 잡음 잡음의 전력이나 톤 재밍의 크기 및 전력을 알 수 있다고 가정하였다. 분석 결과, JSI를 이용한 시스템이 잡음성 재밍의 비율 변동에 관계없이 JSI를 고려하지 않는 시스템보다 성능 향상을 얻을 수 있다. $E_{s}$ /$J_{o}$ =10[dB]인 Rayleigh 페이딩환경에서 JSI가 없는 시스템의 경우, 잡음재밍이 비율에 관계없이 최대의 성능 열화값을 갖는 톤 재밍의 비율은 0.1이나, JSI를 이용한 시스템은 다른 값을 가지게 되어, 잡음성 재밍과 톤 재밍의 적절한 비율이 시스템의 성능저하에 최대로 영향을 끼칠 수 있음을 알 수 있다.

Intra-speaker variation, noise environments, and mismatch between training and test conditions are the major reasons for the speaker verification system unable to use it practically. In this study, we propose robust end-point detection algorithm, noise cancelling with the microphone property compensation technique, and inter-speaker discriminate technique by weighting cepstrum for robust speaker verification system. Simulation results show that the average speaker verification rate is improved in the rate of 17.65% with proposed end-point detection algorithm using LPC residue and is improved in the rate of 36.93% with proposed noise cancelling and microphone property compensation algorithm. The proposed weighting function for discriminating inter-speaker variations also improves the average speaker verification rate in the rate of 6.515%.

The phase noise spectrum distribution for remote controller using the BPSK mode and low data rate of 50 kbps was designed and proposed in this paper. In case of applying the BPSK that transmission performance is superior to FSK method, the performance degradations due to phase noise are generated. To minimize the phase noise effect, it is important to dispatch the digital signal in channel environment with required phase noise characteristics. To provide the terminal design technique and the proper channel environment with required phase noise characteristics, the phase noise spectrum distribution was designed for required phase noise characteristics. By analyzing the phase noise effects for damping factor and noise bandwidth of the carrier recovery circuit, the phase noise spectrum design that consider the damping factor and noise bandwidth was performed. Based on the IESS-308 standards, also, the phase noise effects was analyzed. The phase noise spectrum design techniques and phase noise spectrum that is suitable to remote controller were proposed.

In this paper, we developed and implemented the geological magnetic filter for the improvements of the signal to noise ratio of the magnetic detection system. Using the geological magnetic filter, we can remove the coherent noises in the time domain and improve the signal to noise ratio of the magnetic detection system. Numerical simulation results show that geological magnetic filter can excellently remove the sensor misalignment effects and the regular short range local noise as well as it delete the coherent noises. We confirmed that the geological magnetic filter improved the signal to noise ratio about 19dB and deleted the coherent noises with restoring the source magnetic signal through experiments by implemented system.

In this paper, we propose a novel voice activity detection (VAD) algorithm to effectively distinguish speech from nonspeech in various noisy environments. Global speech absence probability (GSAP) derived from likelihood ratio (LR) based on the statistical model is widely used as the feature parameter for VAD. However, the feature parameter based on conventional GSAP is not sufficient to distinguish speech from noise at low SNRs (signal-to-noise ratios). The presented VAD algorithm utilizes GSAP based on Teager energy (TE) as the feature parameter to provide the improved performance of decision for speech segments in noisy environment. Performances of the proposed VAD algorithm are evaluated by objective test under various environments and better results compared with the conventional methods are obtained.

본 논문에서는 음성 인식기의 성능을 저하시키는 요인중 부가 잡음과 마이크의 변동에 의한 채널 왜곡을 동시에 감소시키는 방법으로 기존의 전처리에 의한 환경덥음처리기법의 단점을 개선한 Histogram 처리기법을 잡음처리에 도입하고 그 유효성을 확인하였다. 도입한 잡음처리기법의 유효성을 확인하기 위하여 기존의 잡음처리기법으로 잘 알려진 여러 가지 방법과 비교하기 위하여 단어 인식실험을 실시하였다. 실험결과, 부가잡음만이 첨가된 경우에 있어서는 일반적으로 알려진 SS, CMN, RASTA등을 이용한 결과 전처리방법을 이용하지 않은 경우의 기본인식률에 비해 SN비에 따라 25% 이상이 인식률 향상을 볼 수 있었다. 특히 CDCN 처리와 H-RASTA를 사용한 경우, 채널왜곡과 부가잡음이 함께 포함된 음성에 대해 SN비에 관계없이 약 15~30%정도의 인식률의 향상을 볼 수 있어 기존 방법으로서는 이글 방법이 우수함을 확인할 수 있었다. 이 위에 Histogram 에 의한 추정법을 적용한 경우 전처리의 성능을 10~15% 정도 성능향상을 가져와 도입한 방법의 유효성을 확인할 수 있었다.

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.

FIR type system identification with noisy input and output data can be solved by a total least squares (TLS) estimation. However, the performance of the TLS estimation is very sensitive to the ratio between the variances of the input and output noises. In this paper, we propose an iterative convex combination algorithm between TLS and least squares (LS). This combined algorithm shows robustness against the noise variance ratio. Consequently, the practical workability of the TLS method with noisy data has been significantly broadened.

This paper proposes noise-robust fast speaker adaptation method based on the eigenvoice framework in various noisy environments. The proposed method is focused on de-noising and environment clustering. Since the de-noised adaptation DB still has residual noise in itself, environment clustering divides the noisy adaptation data into similar environments by a clustering method using the cepstral mean of non-speech segments as a feature vector. Then each adaptation data in the same cluster is used to build an environment-clustered speaker adapted (SA) model. After selecting multiple environmentally clustered SA models which are similar to test environment, the speaker adaptation based on an appropriate linear combination of clustered SA models is conducted. According to our experiments, we observe that the proposed method provides error rate reduction of $40{\sim}59%$ over baseline with speaker independent model.

There are Impulse noise and AWGN in a general image processing. Various methods have been proposed to remove these noises. Well-known filters are Mean, Min-max and Median filter and these show different characteristics depending on the noises. When Impulse noise and AWGN are in superposition environment, single filter doesn't remove noises well. Therefore in this paper, we suggested a switching filter using a probability of noise to restore images in this environment. And we compared a filter with conventional method through simulations.
