In this paper, high resolution spectral estimation by AR modelling and principal comonent analysis is proposed. The given data can be expanded by the eigenvectors of the estimated covariance matrix. The eigenspectrum is obtained for each eigenvector using the Autoressive(AR) spectral estimation technique. The final spectrum estimate is obtained by weighting each eigenspectrum with the corresponding eigenvalue and summing them. Although the proposed method increases in computational complexity, it shows good frequency resolution especially for short data records and narrow-band data whose signal-to-noise ratio is low.

For the remote sensing purpose, radar systems extract the target information, such as the magnitude of reflectivity and the velocity from the spectrum analysis of return echoes through the Doppler filter bank. This conventional spectrum estimation method, FFT(Fast fourier Transform) is widely used in most radar systems. However, the frequency resolution of return echoes can be seriously degraded in fast moving targets because of the short acquisition time. Since the high Doppler frequency resolution is important in the detection and tracking of fast moving targets, it can cause very unsatisfactory results. Therefore, in this paper, the parameter spectrum estimation method called AR(Autoregressive) spectrum estimation, is investigated to overcome these problems.

선형 자귀회귀(AR) 모델을 근거로한 HRV 파워 스펙트럼해석은 비침습적으로 자율신경의 반응을 정량화하는데 폭넓게 사용된다. 본 연구는 단구간(2분 미만)의 심전도와 맥파 신호로부터 시계열 HRV의 파워스펙트럼을 추정한다. 시계열은 정상인을 대상으로 검출한 심전도와 맥파신호의 특징점 시간간격(RRI, PPI)으로부터 구하였다. 발생된 시계열은 다항식 보간법에 의해 AR모델에 적합하게 재구성하였으며, AR모델 계수는 Burg법에 의해 계산하였다. AR모델을 적용한 단구간의 심전도와 맥파의 심박변동에 대한 파워스펙트럼밀도는 저주파수(LF)와 고주파수(HF)에서 매끄러운 스펙트럼 파워를 나타내고 있다. 또한 동일한 피험자의 심전도와 맥파의 파워스펙트럼밀도를 비교한 결과 동일한 모양을 나타내었다.

An Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler(ADCP) measures the current velocity and analyzes the degree of turbulence using Doppler effects of ultrasonic waves. Therefore, the autocorrelation or FFT spectrum estimates are obtained for extraction of current velocity in each spatial region. However, if the correlation method does not satisfy the assumption that the return signal spectra are symmetric Gaussian, the large bias errors can occur. Also, the accurate estimation of autocorrelation or FFT spectrum is difficult due to the short acquisition interval when the rapid changes of current velocity occur. Thus, in this paper, the estimation method of the autoregressive spectrum peak is suggested for the accurate current velocity measurement of both symmetric and asymmetric spectra. It is shown that estimation quality can be improved using the suggested method comparing with the conventional methods. Many return signals under the various environment are simulated and the results are compared and analyzed for evaluation of the suggested method.

A reactor vibration monitoring has been performed using neutron noise obtained from excore detectors for the safety operation, Traditionally, the spectral estimator based on Fourier analysis has been widely used in the noise analysis of the reactor system. If the bias is too severe, the resolution would not be adequate for a given application. One major motivation for the current interests in the parametric approach to spectral estimation is the apparent higher resolution achievable with these modern techniques. In considering an unbias, a consistency, an efficency, and a minimum lower bound of the statictic estimation, an AR model is appropriate for noise spectral estimation with sharp peaks but not deep valley. In order to select an appropriate model order, the lag value of autocorrleaton function is applied. Burg method to trace the vibration mode of RPV internal is the most sucuessful.

A weather radar system generally shows the weather phenomena related with rainfall and wind velocity. These systems are usually very helpful to monitor the relatively high altitude weather situation for the wide and long range area. However, since the weather hazards due to the strong hail and heavy rainfall occurring locally are observed frequently in recent days, it is important to detect these wether phenomena. For this purpose, it is necessary to detect the fast varying low altitude weather conditions. In this environment, the effect of surface clutter is more evident and the antenna dwell time is much shorter. Therefore, the conventional Doppler spectrum estimation method may cause serious problems. In this paper, the AR(autoregressive) Doppler spectrum estimation methods were applied to solve these problems and the results were analyzed. Applied methods show that improved Doppler spectra can be obtained comparing with the conventional FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) method.

In this paper, a new power spectral estimation technique is presented. At first, by transforming the original data with the Karhunen-Loeve Transform(KLT), we can reduce the amount of the redundant information. Next, by modeling the transformed data by means of the autoregressive(AR) model and then applying the least-squares parameter estimation algorithm to this model, even more accurate spectrum estimates can be obtained. The KLT is the optimum transform for signal representation with respect to the mean-square error criterion. And the least-squares method is used to overcome the inherent shortcomings of popular burg algorithm.

A new method for autoregressive parameter estimation from noisy observation sequence is presented. This method, termed the AP method, is a result of an attempt to make use of the adaptive predictor which is a simple and reliable way of parameter estimation. It is shown theoretically that, for noisy input, the parameter vector computed from the prediction sequence is closer to that of the original sequence than the noisy input sequence is, under the spectral distortion criterion. Simulation results with the Kalman filter as a noise reduction filter and real speech data supported the theory. Roughly speaking, the performance of the parameter set obtained by the AP method is better than noisy one but worse than the EM iteration results. When the simplicity is considered, it could provide a useful alternative to more complicated parameter estimation methods in some applications.

The approximate overdetermined method is proposed for high resolution spectral estimation in case of short data record length or narrow band signal. And a new recursive AR parameter estimation is derived in the form of fast algorithm. For ARMA spectral estimation, two stage procedure is used in estimating ARMA parameters. First AR parameters are estimated by using the modified Yule-Walker equations, and then MA parameters are implicitly estimated by estimating numerator spectral(NS) coefficients.
