이 논문에서는 등간격 사각형 배열(Uniform Rectangular Array: URA)을 사용하는, 계산상 효율적인 2차원 도래각(Direction of Arrival: DoA) 추정 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 안테나에 도달한 수신 신호들간의 상관행렬 대신 그들 사이의 위상 관계에 직접적으로 기반하고 있기 때문에 직접 신호-기반 방법이라고 한다. 시뮬레이션 결과에 따르면 직접 신호-기반의 방법이 기존의 어느 방법들보다 현저히 적은 계산량으로도 평균 제곱근 오차(Root-Mean-Squared Error: RMSE)와 최대 절대 오차 측면에서 다중 신호 분류(MUltiple SIgnal Classification: MUSIC) 방법과 비교할 만한 성능을 보여준다.

In this paper, a target signal detection method using multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm is proposed. The MUSIC algorithm is a subspace-based direction of arrival (DOA) estimation method. Using the inverse of the eigenvalue-weighted eigen spectra, the algorithm detects the DOAs of multiple sources. To apply the algorithm in target signal detection for GSC-based beamforming, we utilize its spectral response for the DOA of the target source in noisy conditions. The performance of the proposed target signal detection method is compared with those of the normalized cross-correlation (NCC), the fixed beamforming, and the power ratio method. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm significantly outperforms the conventional ones in receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves.

With the development of BCI devices, it is now possible to use EEG control technology to move the robot's arms or legs to help with daily life. In this paper, we propose a customized vehicle control model based on BCI. This is a model that collects BCI-based driver EEG signals, determines information according to EEG signal analysis, and then controls the direction of the vehicle based on the determinated information through EEG signal analysis. In this case, in the process of analyzing noisy EEG signals, controlling direction is supplemented by using a camera-based eye tracking method to increase the accuracy of recognized direction . By synthesizing the EEG signal that recognized the direction to be controlled and the result of eye tracking, the vehicle was controlled in five directions: left turn, right turn, forward, backward, and stop. In experimental result, the accuracy of direction recognition of our proposed model is about 75% or higher.

The speech intelligibility is one of the most important factors in communication system. The speech intelligibility is related with speech to noise ratio. To enhance the speech to noise ratio, background noise reduction techniques are being developed. As a part of solution to noise reduction, this paper introduces directional microphone using beamforming method and speech filtering method. The directional microphone narrows the spatial range of processing signal into the direction of the target speech signal. The noise signal located in the same direction with speech still remains in the processing signal. To sort this mixed signal into speech and noise, as a following step, a speech-filtering method is applied to pick up only the speech signal from the processed signal. The speech filtering method is based on the characteristics of speech signal itself. The combined directional microphone and speech filtering method gives enhanced performance to speech intelligibility in communication system.

Acoustic signal is crucial for the autonomous navigation of underwater vehicles. For this purpose, this paper presents a method of acoustic source localization. The proposed method is based on the probabilistic estimation of time delay of acoustic signals received by two hydrophones. Using Bayesian update process, the proposed method can provide reliable estimation of direction angle of the acoustic source. The acquired direction information is used to estimate the location of the acoustic source. By accumulating direction information from various vehicle locations, the acoustic source localization is achieved using extended Kalman filter. The proposed method can provide a reliable estimation of the direction and location of the acoustic source, even under for a noisy acoustic signal. Experimental results demonstrate the performance of the proposed acoustic source localization method in a real sea environment.

In the communication channel, the received signal is affected by many factors that can cause errors. These effects mean that received signal strength (RSS) based methods incur more errors in measuring distance and consequently result in low precision in the location detection process. As one of the approaches to overcome these problems, we propose using direction calibration to improve the performance of the RSS-based method for distance measurement, and sequentially a weighted least squares (WLS) method using reliability factors in conjunction with a conventional RSS weighting matrix is proposed to solve an over-determined localization process. The proposed scheme focuses on the features of the RSS method to improve the performance, and these effects are proved by the simulation results.

적응 어레이는 조향벡터를 이용하여 조향벡터 방향의 신호는 보호하면서 간섭신호를 제거한다. 조향벡터에 에러가 있으면 원하는 신호도 감쇠되어 SINR(signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio) 성능 저하를 가져온다. 본 논문에서는 원하는 신호의 도래범위를 이용하여 조향벡터 에러에 강인한 적응 빔 형성 기법을 제시한다. 제시된 기법에서는 도래범위에서 어레이 응답벡터에 관한 상관행렬을 적분을 통해 구하고, 이 상관행렬의 고유벡터 일부를 이용하여 조향벡터를 구하기 위한 최소화 문제를 정의한다. 이 최소화 문제를 컨벡스 최적화(convex optimization)의 일종인 SDP(semidefinite program) 문제로 완화하여 효과적으로 해결한다. 시뮬레이션 결과에 따르면, 제안방식은 기존의 강인한 빔 형성 방식인 ORM(outside-range-based method), USM(uncertainty-based method)보다 우수한 SINR 성능을 나타낸다.

신호를 송출하는 신호원의 방향을 추정하기 위하여 다수개의 안테나를 이용하는 방향 탐지 장치는 조난자를 구출하거나 규정된 송신원의 위치를 파악하기 위하여 사용된다. 방향 탐지를 수행할 때에는 방향 탐지 장치와 다수개의 안테나를 탑재한 시스템의 외형과 재질에 따라서 반사파가 존재하고 신호의 왜곡이 발생된다. 따라서 신호원의 방위각을 정확하게 추정하기 위해서는 방향 탐지 장치 개발 간에 안테나 배치와 시스템 외형에 따른 영향성을 반영하기 위한 보정을 수행해야만 한다. 본 논문에서는 항공 시스템을 이용한 통신신호 방향 탐지 장치 개발을 위하여 수행되는 비행 보정기법을 설명하고, 비행 보정을 통하여 얻게 된 위상 보정 데이터를 적용할 경우의 방향 탐지 성능을 분석한다.

The existence of abnormal breakpoint data leads to poor channel balance in wireless sensor networks (WSN). To enhance the communication quality of WSNs, a method for positioning abnormal breakpoint data in WSNs on the basis of signal reconstruction is studied. The WSN signal is collected using compressed sensing theory; the common part of the associated data set is mined by exchanging common information among the cluster head nodes, and the independent parts are updated within each cluster head node. To solve the non-convergence problem in the distributed computing, the approximate term is introduced into the optimization objective function to make the sub-optimization problem strictly convex. And the decompressed sensing signal reconstruction problem is addressed by the alternating direction multiplier method to realize the distributed signal reconstruction of WSNs. Based on the reconstructed WSN signal, the abnormal breakpoint data is located according to the characteristic information of the cross-power spectrum. The proposed method can accurately acquire and reconstruct the signal, reduce the bit error rate during signal transmission, and enhance the communication quality of the experimental object.
