It is well known that there are two experimental errors on acoustic decay measurements. One is due to the influence of the band pass filter the other one is that of an averaging device. In this paper the influence of the filter is in detail investigated. To minimize the influence of filter, the product of the filter bandwidth Β (3㏈ bandwidth) and the reverberation time T$\sub$60/ of the room under test is at least 16. Moreover, if the initial part of an acoustic decay curve is important, the strong requirement, i.e. BT$\sub$60/＞ 64, must be satisfied. In this paper, the wavelet filter bank instead of the band pass filter bank is applied to obtain an acoustic decay curve. As results, the influence of filter is reduced and then the value of BT$\sub$60/ required for obtaining an acceptable decay curve is at least 4. The strong requirement for the initial part of a decay curve is also replaced by the BT$\sub$60/＞ 16 instead of BT$\sub$60/＞ 64.

This paper presents the design of a video encoder for the device of need TV-OUT function. The designed video encoder satisfies the standard conditions of International Telecommunication Union-Radiocommunication (ITU-R) BT.470. ITU-R BT.470 can be classified as NTSC, PAL or SECAM. NTSC and PAL use Amplitude Modulation (AM) to transmit color difference signals and SECAM uses Frequency Modulation (FM). SECAM must have an antic-cloche filter but the filter recommended by ITU-R BT.470 is not easy to design due to sharpness of the frequency response. So formerly the filter was designed as analog. This paper proposes that the filter is designed as digital and the special quality of the filter is transformed easy to design. And the modulation method is modified to be identical with the result required at standard. The encoder can control power consumption by output mode to apply mobile phone, mobile devices, etc. The proposed encoder is experimentally demonstrated with ALTERA FPGA APEX20KE EP20K1000EBC652-3 device and SAMSUNG LCD-TV.

In this paper, the wavelet filter bank instead of the band pass filter bank is applied to obtain an acoustic decay curve. As a result, the influence of filter is reduced and then the value of BT/sub 60/ required for obtaining an acceptable decay curve becomes at least 4. The strong requirement for the initial part of a decay curve is also replaced by the BT/sub 60/〉16 instead of BT/sub 60/〉64.

This paper presents the design and implementation of a video processor for the device of need TV-OUT function. The designed video processor satisfies the standard conditions of ITU-R(International Telecommunication Union-Radiocommunication) BT.470. Also, in order to apply various digital device, we concentrate upon hardware complexity. ITU-R BT.470 can be classified as NTSC, PAL or SECAM. NTSC and PAL use QAM(Quardarature Amplitude Modulation) to transmit color difference signals and SECAM uses FM(Frequency Modulation). FM must have antic-cloche filter but filter recommended by ITU-R BT.470 is not easy to design due to sharpness of the frequency response. So this paper proposes that the special quality of anti-cloche filter is transformed easy to design and the modulation method is modified to be identical with the result required at standard. The processor can control power consumption by output mode to apply portable digital devices. The proposed processor is experimentally demonstrated with ALTERA FPGA APEX20KE EP20K1000EBC652-3 device and SAMSUNG LCD-TV.

A number of researchers have attempted to measure the reverberation time of a passenger car, ut the reverberation time of passenger car is too short to measure with the traditional band pass filter. And if the reverberation time is very short, the product of the reverberation time (T) and the bandwidth (B) of the traditional band pass fitter becomes small. The low limit of BT product required for the measurement of reverberation time with the traditional band pass filter is 16. In order to overcome this problem, the wavelet filter bank was developed. In this study, this new wavelet filter was employed to measure the reverberation times of five different classes of passenger cars. The low limit of BT product required for the measurement of reverberation time with the wavelet filter is 4. The reverberation times of five passenger cars were measured successfully with the new wavelet filter bank. The reverberation times measured in most passenger cars was found to be around 0.04. Compared with general acoustic rooms like concert halls, this is a very short reverberation time

In this raper, we propose the Sequentiel Couleur Avec Memoire or Sequential Color with Memory (SECAM) video encoder system using modified anti-cloche filters and the SECAM video decoder system using a band pass filter (BPF) and an error-free square root. The SECAM encoder requires an anti-cloche filter recommended by International Telecommunication Union-Recommendation (ITU-R) Broadcasting service Television (BT) 470. However, the design of the anti-cloche filter is difficult because the frequency response of the anti-cloche filter is very sharp around rejection-frequency area. So, we convert the filter into a hish pass filter (HPF) by shifting the rejection frequency of 4.286MHz to 0Hz frequency. The design of HPF becomes very easy, compared to that of the anti-cloche filter. The proposed decoder also uses an error-free square root, two differentiators and trigonometric functions to extract color-component information of Db and Dr accurately from frequency modulation (FM) signals in SECAM systems. Also, the BPF in decoder it used for removing color noise in chrominance and dividing CVBS into chrominance and luminance. The proposed systems are experimentally demonstrated with Altera FPGA APEX20KE EP20K1000EBC652-3 device and TV sets.

The accuracy of Monte Carlo (MC) simulations in estimating the computed tomography radiation dose is highly dependent on the accuracy of CT scanner model. A system was developed to observe the 3D model intuitively and to calculate the X-ray energy spectrum and the bowtie (BT) filter model more accurately in Monte Carlo N-particle (MCNP). Labview's built-in Open Graphics Library (OpenGL) was used to display basic surfaces, and constructive solid geometry (CSG) method was used to realize Boolean operations. The energy spectrum was calculated by simulating the process of electronic shooting and the BT filter model was accurately modeled based on the calculated shape curve. Physical data from a study was used as an example to illustrate the accuracy of the constructed model. RMSE between the simulation and the measurement results were 0.97% and 0.74% for two filters of different shapes. It can be seen from the comparison results that to obtain an accurate CT scanner model, physical measurements should be taken as the standard. The energy spectrum library should be established based on Monte Carlo simulations with modifiable input files. It is necessary to use the three-segment splicing modeling method to construct the bowtie filter model.

The prezoelectric ceramic specimen compoxed of PbO, ZrO$_{2}$, TiO$_{2}$ were prepared in this Lab, and showed properties of dielectric constant .epsilon.$^{33}$ /.epsilon.$_{0}$ 487 at 1kHz, electromechanical coefficient Kr 0.524. As the characteristics of piezoelectric HF filter used these piezoelectric specimen were the resonant point 6.7 MHz, effective bandwidth 690KHz, it was exellant. Since a LC resonant filter can be replaced bt this piezoelectric HG filter, it will greatly contribute to compose a compact circuit. If the resont point can be controlled, this piezoelectric HF filter practically.

In this study, we demonstrated Fourier-domain/swept-source optical coherence tomography (FD/SS-OCT) at a center wavelength of 800 nm for in vivo human retinal imaging. A wavelength-swept source was constructed with a semiconductor optical amplifier, a fiber Fabry-Perot tunable filter, isolators, and a fiber coupler in a ring cavity. Our swept source produced a laser output with a tuning range of 42 nm (779 to 821 nm) and an average power of 3.9 mW. The wavelength-swept speed in this configuration with bidirectionality is 2,000 axial scans per second. In addition, we suggested a modified zero-crossing method to achieve equal sample spacing in the wavenumber (k) domain and to increase the image depth range. FD/SS-OCT has a sensitivity of ~89.7 dB and an axial resolution of 10.4 ${\mu}m$ in air. When a retinal image with 2,000 A-lines/frame is obtained, an acquisition speed of 2.0 fps is achieved.

Applying the available neutron flux for medical and industrial purposes is the most important application of research reactors. The neutron radiography system is used for non-destructive testing (NDT) of materials so that it is one of the main applications of nuclear research reactors. One of these research reactors is the 5 MW pool-type light water research reactor of Tehran (TRR). This work aims to investigate on materials and location of the beam tube (BT) of the TRR radiography system to improve the index parameters of BT. Our results showed that a through-type BT with 20 cm thick carbon neutron filter, 1.2 cm and 9.4 cm of the diameter of inlet (D₁) and output (D₂) BT, respectively gives thermal neutron flux almost 25.7, 5.6 and 1.1 times greater than the former design of the TRR (with D₁ = 1.8 cm and D₁ = 9.4 cm), previous design of the TRR with D₁ = 3 cm and D₁ = 9.4 cm, and another design with D₁ = 5 cm and D₁ = 9.4 cm, respectively. Therefore, the design proposed in this paper could be a better alternative to the current BT of the TRR.
