A study was conducted to investigate an optimal vibration frequency for mobile phones with just noticeable difference(JND). The just noticeable difference, Weber's law, is the minimum amount by which stimulus intensity must be changed in order to produce a noticeable variation in sensory experience. In order to find the optimal vibration frequency, sixteen frequencies ranged from 24Hz to 603Hz were selected. Subjects then wereasked to differentiate a pair of vibration frequencies. For the analysis, the psychometric function to determine the optimal vibration frequency and the logistic regression to validate the determined frequency were used. The results show that the 2nd order polynomial equations were best fitted for the JND psychometric function and the optimal mobile phone vibrations were determined at 140Hz, 151 Hz, and 160Hz. With the ogive-shaped psychometric function developed by the logistic regression, the results of this study was validated that the determined vibration frequencies (140Hz, 151 Hz, and 160Hz) were optimal mobile phone vibration frequencies.

The human auditory system is appropriate for the "constant Q"system. The STFT (Short Time Fourier Transform) is not suitable for the auditory perception model since it has constant bandwidth. In this paper, the CWT (continuous wavelet transform) is employed for the auditory filter model. In the CWT, the frequency resolution can be adjusted for auditory sensation models. The proposed CWT is applied to the modeling of the JNVF. In addition, other signal processing methods such as STFT, VER-FFT and VFR-STFT are discussed. Among these methods, the model of JNVF (Just Noticeable Variation in Frequency) by using the CWT fits in with the JNVF of auditory model although it requires quite a long time.

최근에 모바일 기기와 같은 적은 메모리를 요구하는 환경에 적합한 인공잔향기의 개발이 이슈화 되고 있다. 이러한 조건에 적합한 한가지 방법은 콤 필터의 궤환루프안에 시간변화 전대역통과 필터(APF)를 삽입하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 시간변화 APF를 사용하는 잔향기의 이론적, 지각적 분석을 시행함으로써 지각적으로 수용 가능한 APF의 페이즈 변화량을 찾았다. 그리고 이를 바탕으로 새로운 시간변화 잔향기 설계 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 잔향기의 성능평가를 통해 제안된 잔향기가 적은 메모리를 사용하면서도 기존의 시불변 잔향기와 동일한 성능을 보임을 확인하였다.
