In this paper, a channel estimation technique based on pilot tones, which does not degrade channel estimation performance even with the existence of symbol timing offset (STO) in OFDM systems, is proposed. The proposed technique performs channel estimation by interpolating channels with respect to amplitude and phase with a minimum computational complexity, differently from the conventional interpolation techniques. The proposed technique requires neither the estimation of fine STO in advance nor trigonometric operation for phase interpolation, signifying a significant reduction in computational complexity. Since the performance of the proposed technique does not depend on the STO present in OFDM systems. It can be directly applied to the following areas in OFDM-based communication system: elimination of fine STO estimation step in the synchronization procedure, elimination of STO estimation step in multiuser uplink, and channel estimation in multi-hop relay system. It is verified by computer simulation that the proposed technique can improve the performance of channel estimation significantly in the presence of STOs, compared with previous channel estimation techniques based on pilot tones.

The Processing domains of spatio-temporal databases are divided into time-series databases for moving objects and sequence databases for discrete historical objects. Recently the selectivity estimation techniques for query optimization in spatio-temporal databases have been studied, but focused on query optimization in time-series databases. There wat no previous work on the selectivity estimation techniques for sequence databates as well. Therefore, we construct T-Minskew histogram for query optimization In sequence databases and propose a selectivity estimation method using the T-Minskew histogram. Furthermore we propose an effective histogram maintenance technique for food performance of the histogram.

Parameter estimation techniques are discussed for the complex frequency analysis of an electromagnetic scatterer. The paper suggests how the Maximum Likelihood estimation technique can be applied for this purpose. Experiments on hypothetical data sets demonstrate that the Maximum Likelihood technique is better than the Pencil of Functions technique. Although there have been several techniques including MLE suggested as tools of the parameter estimation, the proposed method has strong advantages under the noise-contaminated sample data environment because it uses minimal dimension of system matrix that stands totally independent of the length of extracted data set.

propose a mobile relay structure for vehicles with multiple antennas, which can increase performances of mobile communication systems and broadcasting systems significantly. Since cell searching and DoA estimation are required for the terminal in hard handover cellular system, joint techniques for cell searching and DoA estimation are proposed to apply beamforming technique for the mobile relay with multiple antennas located at the cell boundary. The proposed cell searching and DoA estimation techniques are evaluated by computer simulation under the environment similar to WiBro system.

The stability and control derivatives of DURUMI-lI UAV using the flight test are obtained. The flight test data is gathered from the normal flight condition (normal mode) and the flight condition assumed as the right elevator fixed (fault mode). Using real-time parameter estimation techniques, applied to Fourier transform regression method, simulates the aircraft motion. From the result, the fault of control surface is to be detected. In this paper, the results of the real- time parameter estimation techniques are compared with the results of the Advanced Aircraft Analysis (AAA). Using the aerodynamic derivatives, it provides the base line of normal/failure for the control surface by using the on-line parameter estimation of Fourier transform regression. In flight, this approach maybe helpful to detect and isolate the fault of primary control surface. It is explained how to perform the flight condition assumed as the right elevator fixed in the flight test. Also, it is mentioned how to switch between the normal flight condition and the assumed fault flight condition.

This paper suggests the techniques in determining the values of the steady-state equivalent circuit parameters of a three-phase induction machine using genetic algorithm. The parameter estimation procedure is based on the steady-state phase current versus slip and input power versus slip characteristics. The propose estimation algorithm is of non-linear kind based on selection in genetic algorithm. The machine parameters are obtained as the solution of a minimization of objective function by genetic algorithm. Simulation shows good performance of the propose procedures.

Reliability estimation using Gibbs sampler considered for modeling mixture exponential reliability problems. Gibbs sampler is developed to compute the features of the posterior distribution. Bayesian estimation of complicated functions requires simpler esti-mation techniques due to the mathematical difficulties involved in the Bayes approach. The Maximum likelihood estimator and the Gibbs estimator of reliability of the system are derived. By simula-tion risk behaviors of derived estimators are compared. model de-termination based on relative error is considered. A numerical study with a simulated data set is provided.

In this paper the Local Weighted Regression LWR technique is applied to the estimation of aircrcraft parameters. The method consists In improving the Local Weighted Regression LWR technique by adding a data Retention-and-Deletion RD strategy. The improvement comes with reduced computational effort since the two techniques can share their main computational procedures. The purpose of the study was to establish if the proposed algorithm could provide fast and reliable real-time estimations, with accuracy comparable to other well-known off-line identification schemes. The algorithm was tested using specific parameter estimation maneuvers and flight data of the NASA F/A-18 HARV. The results were compared with both the estimation obtained from ...

In this paper, the performance of PRA (pel recurdive algorithm) and BMA(block matching algorithm), which are the most well-known motion estimation techniques, is compared and the effects of the motion estimation accuracy on the motion compensated coding are described. Results of computer simulation on the real images indicate that the TSS (three step search), which is one of the BMA,is slightly better than the PRA in terms of the accuracy however, the required bit rate is 6.6-8.2 Kbps higher that of the PRA because the TSS requires a transmission of motion estimation vectors.

There are many techniques for underwater source localization. These are the methods based on TDOA (Time Difference Of Arrival) estimation. beamforming techniques and high resolution techniques, etc. In this Paper we estimate the underwater source position using MCPSP (Modified Cross Power Spectrum Phase) function that is calculated on frequency domain using sensors of small number. However, the performances of the localizing method based on MCPSP function drops greatly in the case of CW (Continuous Wave) signal . In this Paper we proposed the TDOA estimation method for pulsed CW signal. In the Proposed method we composed of new segment including a edge of ping. This segment was computed by short-time energy detection. With theoretical representation the performances of the proposed method were analyzed under various environment.
