This paper presents a method of quantization to extract quantization parameters using the straight-line and DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) for two splited frequency bands. As the number of harmonic is variable frame to frame, harmonics in low frequency band is oversampled to fix the dimension and straight-lines present a spectral envelope, then the discontinuous points of straight-lines in low frequency is sent to quantizer. Thus, extraction of quantization parameters using the straight-line provides a fixed dimension. Harmonics in high frequency use variable DCT to obtain quantization parameters and this paper proposes a method of quantization combining the straight-line with DCT. The measurement (If proposed method of quantization uses spectral distortion (SD) for spectral magnitudes. As a result, The proposed method of quantization improved 0.3dB in term of SD better than HVXC.

Spectral information at a speech coder should be quantized with sufficient accuracy to keep perceptually transparent output speech. Spectral information at a low bit rate speech coder is usually transformed into corresponding line spectrum pair parameters and is often quantized with a vector quantization algorithm. As the vector quantization algorithm generally has high complexity in the optimal code vector searching routine, the complexity reduction in that routine is investigated using the ordering property of the line spectrum pair. When the proposed complexity reduction algorithm is applied to the well-known split vector quantization algorithm, the 46% complexity reduction is achieved in the distortion measure compu-tation.

New power factor correction(PFC) technique based on the averaged model of boost converter is proposed. Without measurement of input current, power factor correction scheme derived from the averaged model is presented. With the measurements of input voltage and output voltage, the control signal is generated to make the shape of the line current same as the input voltage. The characteristics of input line current distortion is analyzed by considering the generation of duty cycle.

In this paper, we propose a new feature-based text watermarking for the binary text image. The structure of specific characters from preprocessed text image are modified to embed watermark. Watermark message are embedded and detected by the following method; Hole line disconnect using the connectivity of the character containing a hole, Center line shift using the hole area and Differential encoding using difference of flippable score points. Experimental results show that the proposed method is robust to rotation and scaling distortion.

This paper introduces a low-frequency switching method for the neutral line of TNPC inverters to achieve high efficiency. By applying the method, the switching loss in the neutral line is reduced. In order to compensate the current distortion near zero-crossing points, the partial switching strategy is applied. Both the simulation and the experimental results verify the usefulness of the proposed method.

This paper proposes the operation scheme and control method for a four-level hybrid half-bridge flying-capacitor inverter (4L-HHBFCI). With in-phase disposition level-shifted modulation (IPD), the flying capacitor voltage ripple is less than 1% of the reference value, while the line-to-line voltage total harmonic distortion is 23.27% at unity modulation index. The performance and effectiveness of the proposed inverter operation have been verified by simulation results.

Texture mapping is the process of covering 3D models with texture images in order to increase the visual realism of the models. For proper mapping the coordinates of texture images need to coincide with those of the 3D models. When projective images from the camera are used as texture images, the texture image coordinates are defined by a camera calibration method. The texture image coordinates are determined by the relation between the coordinate systems of the camera image and the 3D object. With the projective camera images, the distortion effect caused by the camera lenses should be compensated in order to get accurate texture coordinates. The distortion effect problem has been dealt with iterative methods, where the camera calibration coefficients are computed first without considering the distortion effect and then modified properly. The methods not only cause to change the position of the camera perspective line in the image plane, but also require more control points. In this paper, a new iterative method is suggested for reducing the error by fixing the principal points in the image plane. The method considers the image distortion effect independently and fixes the values of correction coefficients, with which the distortion coefficients can be computed with fewer control points. It is shown that the camera distortion effects are compensated with fewer numbers of control points than the previous methods and the projective texture mapping results in more realistic image.

This paper presents the new power line coupler which is applicable to spread spectrum power line communications. The proposed coupler maintains the adequate value of a capacitor between the transmitter mode and the receiver mode using a switch. In the transmit mode, the relatively high value of the capacitor is chosen to minimize the attenuation of transmitted signals. In the receiver mode, the value of the capacitor is chosen to be small enough so that the coupler attenuates power line noises. This coupler reduced the magnitude distortion due to having a high Q value and the power consumption caused by the AC current flowing into the capacitor. The simulation and measurement results show the improved performance in the transmitter and receiver mode, respectively.

Too high stress of the bottom Mo layer of the gate line is thought to be the main reason for H-line mura. H-Line mura is eliminated effectively by changing the gate line metal structure from Mo/AlNd/Mo to AlNd/Mo. The new structure does not influence the panel's electrical characteristics.

Recently, a lot of studies on the power line communication(PLC) are being done by many companies and institutes due to its own merit which can use the power line spread widely as a communication channel. But, there are many serious problems about the harsh and unpredictable characteristics, or noise, signal distortion and attenuation to be overcome for commercialization. In this paper, the power line characteristics as the view point of communication channel are investigated and the technologies of PLC are proposed to control the power of electric machineries by using the combined method of ASK modulation and microprocessor technologies. Also experiments are carried out to ascertain performance in case of applying to electric lights control according to various distancea as an example.
