인터넷상에서 화상전화를 구현하고자 할 때는 가변적인 네트웍 대역폭에 따라 전송률을 동적으로 조절하는 대역폭 제어기법이 요구된다. 그러나, 기존의 기법들은 종점간 할당된 대역폭을 미디어의 특성에 상관없이 동일하게 조절함으로써 각 미디어에 맞는 QoS 수준을 충분히 제공하지 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 미디어의 특성을 고려하여 각 미디어별로 차별적인 QoS를 제공할 수 있는 미디어간 대역폭 조절 기법과 전송 기법을 제안하고 이를 실험한다. 실험을 위해 PC상에서 화상전화의 프로토타입을 구현하였으며, 실험 결과, 비디오의 전송품질을 크게 영향을 미치지 않고, 오디오의 전송품질을 향상시킬 수 있었다.

인터넷을 기반으로 한 고품질 오디오 스트리밍 서비스를 위하여 오디오 데이터 전송 시 발생되는 품질의 열화를 극복하여 고품질의 오디오 재생이 가능한 QoS 보장기법을 제안한다. 오디오 데이터는 연속성과 시간제약성을 가지고 있기 때문에 전송 시 통신망의 상황에 따라 그 재생품질이 결정된다. 이때 필요한 QoS 보장 기법으로 통신망의 상황에 따라 동적으로 전송률을 가변시키고 ARQ에 의한 재전송 방식과 동적 버퍼 제어기법을 복합적으로 적용하는 기법을 보인다. 클라이언트 내의 오디오 데이터 버퍼를 현재 망 상황에 따라 제어함으로서 재전송에 필요한 시간을 확보하고, 전송률도 함께 연동 조정하여 재전송에 따른 전송률 저하 현상을 방지한다. 동적인 클라이언트 버퍼/전송률 제어에 필요한 파라미터는 현재 통신망에서의 UDP 패킷 에러율과 왕복시간 이다. 실제 인터넷 환경에서 위 복합적 QoS 보장기법을 적용하여 고품질로 재생되는 오디오 스트리밍 서비스의 성능을 확인하였다.

This paper describes the functions and design technology of the T-DMB (Terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) receiver. T-DMB is a novel broadcasting media that can provide high-quality video and audio services. In this paper, we will describe the VLSI implementation of RF, Baseband and Multimedia Chip for T-DMB Receiver. The designed DMB SoC has low power consumption and has been implemented using a standard-cell library in 0.18um CMOS technology.

This paper represents measurement prodcedure and analysis of terrestrial DTV field test results over Taejeon city area. Thirty three points were selected as measuring points. Signal power, noise power, Segment Error Rate, RMS delay spread and equalizer performance was measured. The video and audio quality of DTV was good over half of test sites. Equalizer, could correct signal ghost and improve S/N up to 13.7 dB. From this test, the test procedure for DTV will be estabilished.

The digital signal has been replaced the analog signal in most of every field of multimedia including still image, animation, and audio due to the enormous extension of computer supply and the fast development of computer network. The consumers of information are able to enjoy the abundance of information because of one of the digital signal traits that very easy to regenerate the original data. Because of the trait, however, it is very hard for the producers of information to keep the copyright with the merit of original copy in quality excellency. In this paper, the watermarking technology which inserts a RGB color watermark in color image using the visual characteristics of wavelet coefficient was proposed. As a result, the PSNR value of image was varied depending on perceptual parameter, but we can obtain 32dB as a whole.

In this paper, we investigate source separation algorithms for stereo audio mixed using amplitude panning method. This source separation algorithms can be used in various applications such as up-mixing, speech enhancement, and high quality sound source separation. The methods in this paper estimate the panning angles of individual signals using the principal component analysis being applied in time-frequency tiles of the input signal and independently extract each signal through directional filtering. Performances of the methods were evaluated through computer simulations.

To design high quality products at low cost is one of very important tasks for engineers. Design optimization for performances can be one solution in this task. There is the robust design which has been proved effectively in many fields of engineering design. In this paper, the concept of robust design is introduced and combined to the fuzzy optimization method and the fuzzy logic system method with non-singleton. These methods are applied for data analysis to get optimum parameters and to reduce experiments. The optimum parameter set points are obtained by the proposed methods. These methods are applied to a filter circuit, a part of the audio circuit of mobile radio transceiver. The simulation results are compared each other. The new methods reduce and predict the effect of parameter variation sources

Digital watermarking is the technique which embeds the invisible signal into multimedia data such as audio, video, images, for copyright protection, including owner identification and copy control information. In this paper, a new watermark detection algorithm by local masking cross covariance between watermarked signal and pseudo noise signal is proposed. The proposed algorithm enhances the detection probability for embedding information. Since reducing detection errors for the weak embedding signals, the algorithm improves the image quality and robusts against illegal attack to delete the embedding information and data compression applications such as JPEG and MPEGs.

Our recent work on virtual environments and virtual displays is reviewed, including our efforts to establish the Virtual Environment Research, Interactive Technology, And Simulation (VERITAS) facility and our research on spatial hearing. VERITAS is a state-of -the-art multisensory facility, built around the ${CAVE}^{TM}$ technology. High-quality 3D audio is included and haptic interfaces are planned. The facility will support technical and non-technical users working in a wide variety of application areas. Our own research emphasizes the importance of auditory stimulation in virtual environments and complex display systems. Experiments on auditory-aided visual target acquistion, sensory conflict, sound localization in noise, and loxalization of speech stimuli are discussed.

In this paper, we propose a Pyramid VQ(PVQ) to quantize the transform coefficients of TCX module for the music improvement of AMR-WB+ codec. The proposed PVQ is compared to the $RE_8$ Lattice VQ used in the AHR-WB+ standard codec, demonstrating improvement 4% and 5.7%, respectively, in Mean Squared Error(MSE) and 3.3% and 4.7%, respectively, in Perceptual Evaluation of Audio Quality(PEAQ) by 8-dimensional and 16-dimensional Pyramid VQ.
