In area of the speech synthesis, the waveform coding with high quality are mainly used to the synthesis by analysis. However, it is difficult to applying the waveform coding to the synthesis by rule, because the parameters of this coding are not classified as either excitation parameters and vocal tract parameters. In this paper, we proposed a new pitch change method that can alter the pitch periods in the waveform coding. The proposed method expands the pitch period by the LPC synthesis method, and then the period is compressed by the waveform halving technique. Thus, it is possible that the waveform coding is carried out the synthesis by rule in speech processing.

In this study, we will implement a flexible formant analysis and synthesis system. In the analysis part, the two-channel (i.e., speech & EGG signals) approach is investigated for accurate estimation of formant information. The EGG signal is used for extracting exact pitch information that is needed for the pitch synchronous LPC analysis and closed phase LPC analysis. In the synthesis part, Klatt formant synthesizer is modified so that the user can change synthesis parameters arbitarily. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the two-channel analysis method over the one-channel(speech signal only) method in analysis as well as in synthesis. The implemented system is expected to be very helpful for studing the effects of synthesis parameters on the quality of synthetic speech and for the development of Korean text-to-speech(TTS) system with the formant synthesis method.

최근 텔레매틱스 단말기 등과 같이 음성인식을 인터페이스로 하는 음성기반 검색시스템들이 많이 개발되고 있다. 그러나 음성인식에는 여전히 많은 오류가 존재하며, 이에 오류보정에 대한 여러 가지 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 한국어의 음소가 갖는 특징을 기반으로 음성인식 후처리에서의 오류보정을 제안하였다. 이를 위해 한국어 음소의 특징을 고려한 음소 유사율을 사용하였다. 음소 유사율은 훈련데이터를 모노폰으로 훈련시켜 한국어 음소 각각에 대하여 MFCC와 LPC 특징추출방법을 사용하여 특징추출을 수행하고, 바타차랴 거리 측정법을 사용하여 각 음소 사이의 유사율을 구하였다. 음소 유사율과 신뢰도를 이용하여 오류보정률을 구하였으며, 이를 사용하여 음성인식 과정에서 오류로 판명된 어절에 대하여 오류보정을 수행하고, 음절 복원과 형태소 분석을 재수행하는 과정을 거쳤다. 실험 결과 MFCC와 LPC 각각 7.5%와 5.3%의 인식 향상률을 보였다.

태평소는 고려 말경 원나라로부터 소개된 이후로 대취타, 풍물놀이, 범패, 종묘제례악, 시나위 등에 널리 쓰여 왔고 최근들어 대중가요에 사용되며 비교적 쉽게 연주할 수 있어 일반인들에게 주목받고 있다. 본 연구는 물리적 모델링을 이용하여 태평소를 전자화 하기위한 일환으로 태평소를 분석한다. 이를 위해 율명에 따른 분석을 통해 태평소의 공명 특성을 추출하였고, 팔랑, 관대, 조롱목에 대하여 FFT 및 LPC곡선을 이용하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 팔랑은 관대와 팔랑 사이의 반사필터와 2극점 필터로 표현할 수 있었다.

The turbofan engine performance analysis for a medium scale commercial aircraft was carried out and the LQR control scheme for performance optimization was studied. By using scaled component maps from well-known CF6 engine characteristics, the steady-state performance analysis result was compared with BR715-56 engine performance data. The transient performance analysis was performed with four fuel schedules. The linear simulation was done at the maximum take-off condition. The real time linear simulation was performed by interpolation of the system matrices, which used the least square method as the function of LPC rotational speed. By using linear system matrices of design point, the LQR controller which used control variables for the fuel flow and the LPC bleed air was designed.

In this paper, The Split Model Analysis Algorithm, which can generate the wideband speech signal from the spectral information of narrowband signal, is developed. The Split Model Analysis Algorithm deals with the separation of the $10^{th}$ order LPC model into five cascade-connected $2^{nd}$ order model. The use of the less complex $2^{nd}$ order models allows for the exclusion of the complicated nonlinear relationships between model parameters and all the poles of the LPC model. The relationships between the model parameters and its corresponding analog poles is proved and applied to each $2^{nd}$ order model. The wideband speech signal is obtained by changing only the sampling rate

본 논문에서는 음성의 스펙트럼 형태는 유지하면서 음성을 기계적인 음성으로 변환시키기는 실시간 음성 변환 방법을 제안하였다. 이러한 목적을 위하여 LPC 분석 및 합성 방법을 사용하여 변환된 음성의 스펙트럼은 유지하였고 합성된 음성의 피치는 자유롭게 변경되도록 하였다. 제안된 방법에서는 변환된 음성이 보다 자연스럽게 들리게 하기 위하여 여기 신호 발생기에 이득 정합 방법을 적용하였다. 제안된 방법의 성능을 평가하기 위하여 음성 변환 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과에서 원 음성 신호는 원 화자의 신원을 알기가 어려운 기계적인 음성 신호로 바뀌는 것을 알 수 있었고 피치의 심한 변화에도 변환된 음성의 의미는 정확히 전달될 수 있었다. 제안된 시스템은 시스템의 실시간으로 구현될 수 있는지 확인하기 위하여 TI TMS320C6711DSK 보드를 사용하여 구현되었다.

Recently, four speech coding techniques, namely, SBC-APCM(sub-band coding adaptive PCM), RPE-LPC(regualr pulse excitation linear predictive codec), MPE-LTP(multi-pulse excited long-term prediction) and CELP (code-excited linear prediction) are proposed for digital mobile radio applications. However, a performance comparison of these coders in the Rayleigh fading environment has not been made yet. In this paper, the performances of the four spech coders in the random bit error and burst error environment are investigated. For the channel coding of SBC-APCM, RPE-LPC and MPE-LTP, the sensitivity of output bit stream is measured and a bit selective forward error correction is provided acording to the measured bit sensitivity. And for an attempt to improve the performance of CELP, an optimum quantizer is applied for transmitting scalar quantities in CELP. However, an improvement over the conventional approach is found to be negligible. For the channel coding of CELP, Reed-Solomon code, Golay code, convolutional code of rate 1/2 shows the best performance. Finally, from the simulation results, it is concluded that CELP is the best candidate for digital mobile radio and is followed by MPE-LTP, SBC-APCM and RPE-LPC.

This paper deal with the acoustic cues of Pyoung-An Do dialect using linear prediction. Also, this paper descrbes a statistical comparison between standard tone speech data and Pyoung-An Do dia lects. The analysis done mainly focused on the distribution of formants and pitch periods accord to ac- cents variation. For the purpose of objective comparison, the experiments are performed by extracts for- mant LPC spectrum and pithch periods from average magnitude difference function waveforms. Summing up the results, In disyllable words (VCV pattern) , prepositioned vowels have longer phona lion time than postpositioned vowels and the intrin, iii phonation time is whore longer in the low vowels than in the high ones. The africative consonants show the mixed characteristics of the plosive and frlc ative consonants. The remarkable acoustic cues are the low frequency noise-like waves just before the 1st formants in the plosive consonants, the high frequency noise-like waves in the fricative consonants, and phonation time is not affected by the kinds of prepositioned or postpositioned vowels.
