To distinguish between a group of speech signals and nonspeech signals, you can use several features in domains like frequency, quefrency and time. It is very important to use features that differentiate two signal groups. As a feature to separate two signal groups, autocorrelation method was proposed and the variances between groups were studied. Autocovariances were just calculated for the time domain signal. Signals were divided into segments which consist of 128 data to be transformed to the frequency and quefrency domains. Autocovariances between each coefficient of segments in FFTs and quefrencies were found and they were averaged over wide spectrum. It is clear that the autocovariances in frequency domain show great differences between groups of signals.

This study investigates the use of time-frequency coherence analysis for detecting and evaluating coherent "structures" of surface pressures and wind turbulence components, simultaneously on the time-frequency plane. The continuous wavelet transform-based coherence is employed in this time-frequency examination since it enables multi-resolution analysis of non-stationary signals. The wavelet coherence quantity is used to identify highly coherent "events" and the "coherent structure" of both wind turbulence components and surface pressures on rectangular prisms, which are measured experimentally. The study also examines, by proposing a "modified" complex Morlet wavelet function, the influence of the time-frequency resolution and wavelet parameters (i.e., central frequency and bandwidth) on the wavelet coherence of the surface pressures. It is found that the time-frequency resolution may significantly affect the accuracy of the time-frequency coherence; the selection of the central frequency in the modified complex Morlet wavelet is the key parameter for the time-frequency resolution analysis. Furthermore, the concepts of time-averaged wavelet coherence and wavelet coherence ridge are used to better investigate the time-frequency coherence, the coherently dominant events and the time-varying coherence distribution. Experimental data derived from physical measurements of turbulent flow and surface pressures on rectangular prisms with slenderness ratios B/D=1:1 and B/D=5:1, are analyzed.

Phase noise performance and current consumption of Radio Frequency (RF) Voltage-Controlled Oscillator (VCO) are largely dependent on the Quality (Q) factor of inductor-capacitor (LC) tank. Because the Q-factor of LC tank is determined by on-chip spiral inductor, we designed, analyzed, and modeled on-chip differential inductor to enhance differential Q-factor, reduce current consumption and save silicon area. The simulated inductance is 3.3 nH and Q-factor is 15 at 2 GHz. Self-resonance frequency is as high as 13 GHz. To verify its use to RF applications, we designed 2 GHz differential LC VCO. The measurement result of phase noise is -112 dBc/Hz at an offset frequency of 100 kHz from a 2GHz carrier frequency. Tuning range is about 500 MHz (25%), and current consumption varies from 5mA to 8.4 mA using bias control technique. Implemented in $0.35-{\mu}m$ SiGe BiCMOS technology, the VCO occupies $400\;um{\times}800\;um$ of silicon area.

One fundamental element of probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) is the initiating event (IE) analysis. Since IE frequencies can change over time, time-trend analysis is required to obtain optimized IE frequencies. Accordingly, such time-trend analyses have been employed to estimate industry-average IE frequencies for use in the PSAs of U.S. nuclear power plants (NPPs); existing PSAs of Korean NPPs, however, neglect such analysis in the estimation of IE frequencies. This article therefore provides the method for and results of estimating Korean industry-average IE frequencies using time-trend analysis. It also examines the effects of the IE frequencies obtained from this study on risk insights by applying them to recently updated internal events Level 1 PSA models (at-power and shutdown) for an OPR-1000 plant. As a result, at-power core damage frequency decreased while shutdown core damage frequency increased, with the related contributions from each IE category changing accordingly. These results imply that the incorporation of time-trend analysis leads to different IE frequencies and resulting risk insights. The IE frequency distributions presented in this study can be used in future PSA updates for Korean NPPs, and should be further updated themselves by adding more recent data.

Difficulties in the measuring home food production activities obstructs development of home production activity related studies. For solving such problems, this study intended to develope a home food production frequency scale. The data were collected from 219 housewives in Taejon. Validity, reliability, correlation, and multiple regression analysis were used to test home food production frequency scale. The scale's validity and reliability were reveled considerable potential for its use to ascertain relationships between home food production activity and other family variables.

This paper introduces a more effective usage of the limited OVSF cod in compressed mode which is used during inter-frequency/inter-system handover in UTRA(Universal mobile telecommunications system) Terrestrial Radio Access). The usager is to use dynamic common channel which is shared by several users during the compressed mode.

This paper explored an effective scheduling method for the Seoul-Busan High Speed Rail. It is important to decide train frequency influencing on scheduling method. Main factors to decide train frequency are location of station, social economic index, land use of station area and travel demand. In this paper, we focused on travel demand which is critical factor to decide train frequency. And we studied on standardized scheduling method. Simulation method is used to analyze the performance of explored method.

Its characteristics have been analyzed by employing Green's function and verified experimentally. The maximum frequency bandwidth obtained from the experiments is 45MHz at S-band(center frequency 50=3GHz).

High-frequency and complex vibration ultrasonic wire bonding systems are propsed and their welding characteristic are studied. Ultrasonic wire bonding is used widely for joining thin connecting wire of various electronic devices including IC or LSI. Conventional bonding systems use vibration frequency of 40 or 60 kHz and linear vibration welding tips. Complex vibration welding tip which vibrates in elliptical to circular or rectangular to square in the same or different frequency is effective to join welding specimens in shorter welding time and under smaller vibration amplitude, and furthermore high-frequency systems such as 90, 120, 190 kHz are also significantly effective. High-frequency and complex vibration welding system of 90, 120 and 190 kHz are designed. Welding characteristics of these systems are found very superior than a conventional system. Welding specimens of aluminum wire of 0.1mm diameter are successfully.

An underwater speaker was made of a moving coil driver unite of usual speaker, acryl-boards, polyester resin, rubber and castor oil and it's frequency characteristics was measured in range of 250~600Hz in air water tank and sea. The results of measurements are follows: 1. Transmitting and receiving frequency of measurement frequency were similar in air, water tank and sea. 2. The input and output wave forms of a manufactured speaker which is not water-proof in air were similar to each other in 300~450Hz, but other frequencies showed distorted wave forms. 3. The input and output wave forms of an underwater speaker in water thank and sea were similar to each other in 250~600Hz. But output wave forms showed combination waves with very low frequency. 4. Transmitting and receiving frequency wave forms and resisting pressure of an underwater speaker at 80m in the depth of water were in good condition. Therefore it can be possible to use it as an underwater speaker.
