Direct tracking problem of moving noncircular sources for multiple arrays is investigated in this study. Here, we propose an improved unscented particle filter (I-UPF) direct tracking method, which combines system proportional symmetry unscented particle filter and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm. Noncircular sources can extend the dimension of sources matrix, and the direct tracking accuracy is improved. This method uses multiple arrays to receive sources. Firstly, set up a direct tracking model through consecutive time and Doppler information. Subsequently, based on the improved unscented particle filter algorithm, the proposed tracking model is to improve the direct tracking accuracy and reduce computational complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed improved unscented particle filter algorithm for noncircular sources has enhanced tracking accuracy than Markov Chain Monte Carlo unscented particle filter algorithm, Markov Chain Monte Carlo extended Kalman particle filter, and two-step tracking method.

This paper describes a baseband analog (BBA) chain for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications. For the given specifications of the receiver BBA chain, the optimum allocation of the gain and filter rejection of each block in a BBA chain is achieved to maximize the SFDR. The fully integrated BBA chain is fabricated in 0.13 ${\mu}m$ CMOS technology. An input-referred third-order intercept point (IIP3) of 22.9 dBm at a gain of 0.5 dB and an input-referred noise voltage (IRN) of 32.2 nV/${\surd}$Hz at a gain of 63.3 dB are obtained. By optimizing the allocation of the gain and filter rejection using the proposed design methodology, an excellent SFDR performance of 63.9 dB is achieved with a power consumption of 12 mW.

연결정보만을 이용하는 range-free 측위 기법의 성능은 이동성을 갖는 무선 단말 움직임에 취약한 문제점이 있다. 본 논문은 실제 전파 환경을 고려한 실내 네트워크에서 베이지안 필터를 사용하여 실시간으로 움직이는 무선장치를 추적하는 두 가지 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 측정 모델의 선형성에 따라 Kalman filter 와 Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) particle filter를 적용하였다. Kalman과 MCMC particle filter 기반 알고리즘은 각각 무선단말 간 연결정보를, 이동 단말의 한 홉 간격 내 단말로부터 수신하는 신호의 세기 (RSS: received signal strength)와 연결정보를 혼합한 융합정보를 측정 모델로 사용하였다. 정확한 시뮬레이션을 위해 실내 쇼핑몰 지도를 구현한 네트워크 지형, 그리고 라디오 불규칙도 모델을 적용하였다. 또한, 장애물 존재 여부에 따라 라디오 불규칙도를 분류하였다. 성능평가를 위해 MATLAB 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 기존 range-free 측위 기법보다 향상된 위치정확도를 확인하였다.

In this paper, we derive a transfer function of cross-coupled microwave filter systems by using a characteristics of chain matrices. Depending on the lumped element of capacitor or inductor, the cross-coupled system is negatively- or positively system. We used a ladder network as a starting system composed of several subsystems connected in chain. Each subsystem is descrived by Laplace impedance. By solving the transmission zero characteristic equation derived from the cascaded subsystems, we can find the zeros of filter system with externally cross-coupled lumped elements. With the cross-coupled elements of capacitors, the numerator polynomial of system transfer function is used to locate the quadruplet zeros in complex plane. We show the polynomoials of numerator and denominator of cascaded transfer function, obtaining the zeros of the cross-coupled system.

Hydrologic models can be classified into two types: those for understanding physical processes and those for predicting hydrologic quantities. This study deals with how to use the model to predict today's stream flow based on the system's knowledge of yesterday's state and the model parameters. In this regard, for the model to generate accurate predictions, the uncertainty of the parameters and appropriate estimates of the state variables are required. In this study, a relatively simple hydrologic partitioning model is proposed that can explicitly implement the hydrologic partitioning process, and the posterior distribution of the parameters of the proposed model is estimated using the Markov chain Monte Carlo approach. Further, the application method of the ensemble Kalman filter is proposed for updating the normalized soil moisture, which is the state variable of the model, by linking the information on the posterior distribution of the parameters and by assimilating the observed steam flow data. The stochastically and recursively estimated stream flows using the data assimilation technique revealed better representation of the observed data than the stream flows predicted using the deterministic model. Therefore, the ensemble Kalman filter in conjunction with the Markov chain Monte Carlo approach could be a reliable and effective method for forecasting daily stream flow, and it could also be a suitable method for routinely updating and monitoring the watershed-averaged soil moisture.

In this paper, complex quadruplet zeros of microwave filter systems are investigated. For the cascaded systems the chain matrices are most conveniently used to derive the voltage transfer function of Laplace transform with cascaded two-port subsystems. The convenient relations of transfer function and chain matrix are used in order to find the transmission zeros. Starting from a ladder network, we introduced a crossed-coupled lumped element, in order to show the improved response of bandpass filter. By solving the transmission zero characteristic equation derived from the cascaded subsystems, we found the zeros of filter system with externally cross-coupled lumped elements. With the cross-coupled elements of capacitors, the numerator polynomial of system transfer function is used to locate the quadruplet zeros in complex plane. When the two pairs of double are on the zeros -axis, with the perturbed values of element, we learned that the transition band of lowpass filter is improved. By solving the characteristic equation of cascaded transfer function, we can obtain the zeros of the cross-coupled filter system, as a result of perturbed values on lumped element.

The use of droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) has greatly improved the quantification of harmful protists, outperforming traditional methods like quantitative PCR. Notably, ddPCR provides enhanced consistency and reproducibility at it resists PCR inhibitors commonly found in environmental DNA samples. This study aimed to determine the most effective filter material for ddPCR protocols by assessing the reproducibility of species-specific gene copy numbers and filtration time across six filter types: cellulose acetate (CA), mixed cellulose ester (MCE), nylon (NY), polycarbonate (PC), polyethersulfone (PES), and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). The study used two species of Chattonella marina complexes as a case study. Filtration rates were slower for NY, PC, and PVDF filters. Moreover, MCE, NY, PES, and PVDF yielded lower DNA amounts than other filters. Importantly, the CA filter exhibited the lowest variance (38-39%) and the highest determination coefficients (R² = 0.92-0.96), indicating superior performance. These findings suggest that the CA filter is the most suitable for ddPCR quantification of marine protists, offering quick filtration and reliable reproducibility.

Image processing for object detection and identification has been studied for supply chain management application with various approaches. Among them, feature pointed detection algorithm is used to track an object or to recognize a position in automated supply chain systems and a depth image based feature point detection is recently highlighted in the application. The result of feature point detection is easily influenced by image noise. Also, the depth image has noise itself and it also affects to the accuracy of the detection results. In order to solve these problems, we propose a novel hybrid filtering mechanism for depth image based feature point detection, it shows better performance compared with conventional hybrid filtering mechanism.

The constraint condition of the loop filter is persented for the convergence of the random jitter accumulation fo the 2-nd order PLL (phase-locked loop) circuit used in digital regenerative repeater. This condition is confirmed under the assumption that the number of repeater chain is 5, bandwidth is 100. 0KHz, the power spectral density of white Gaussian noise is 1.0x10**-6 [W/Hz]. Also, it is shown that if the condition is satisfied, the accumulated random jitter and the alignment jitter will have the saturation characteristics.
