Suspension noise from under a passenger car is one of the important factors that impact the perceptual quality for drivers. However, it is difficult to validate this by component level testing in the early stage of development, because suspension noise caused by interaction of the related parts has been found at saleable vehicles late during development or at the manufacturing stage, when many customers have already filed for claims. This study proposed a validation testing under research by the DFSS process that enables reproduction of vehicle level noise by component level testing using a shock absorber with the related parts, such as urethane bumper and top mount. This study also developed a compromised test matrix while analyzing the noise factors through experimental design and analysis of variance to determine what factors can affect noise. Based on this study, we expect that the vehicle level and customer claim can be validated during initial development timing by a more reliable component noise validation test.

We investigated and analysed the actual conditions and characteristics of railroad noise levels for 17 sites in the vicinity of the Seoul-Pusan Line. The results i,we summarized as follows : 11 Railroad noise level ranged to 64 ~ 74 $L_{eq}$ dB(A) at day time and ranged to 60 ~ 72 $L_{eq}$ dB(A) at night time. 21 Increased night noise level depend on the increase of trains passing at night time. 31 The major factor of Increased noise level in the vicinity of stations are using loudspeakers and stream whistle on trains. 4) Decreased effect of noise according to distance is able to be described quantitatively using regression equations of multiplicative model. $L_{eq}$=$78.59^{X-0.056}$, n =25, r=-0.994, s.e. =1.007 $P_{av}$ = $105.68X^{-0.073}$, n =25, r =-0.997, s.e. = 1.007 Also increased and decreased effect of noise according to floor in apartment Is able to be described quantitatively using regression equations of multiplicative model. $L_{eq}$ = $64.238X^{0.0567}$, n = 39, r = 0.787, s.e. = 1.004 $P_{av}$ =79.963X0.0524, n =39, r =0.689, s.e. = 1.056 5) Average noise level in high floor is over 70 $L_{eq}$ dB(A) at day and night time. so more detailed soundproofing countermeasured in high floors apartment is required.

High data-rate underwater communications is demanded. This demand imposes stringent requirements on underwater communication equipment of phase-locked-loop (PLL). Phase noise in PLL is unwanted and unavoidable. In this paper, we investigate the PLL phase noise effect on high order QAM for underwater communication systems. The phase noise model using power spectral density is adopted for performance evaluation. The phase noise components considered in PLL are reference oscillator, voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), filter and divider. The filters in PLL noise are assumed to be second order active and passive low pass filters. Through simulation, we analyze the phase noise characteristics of the four components and then investigate the performance improvement factor of each component. Consequently, we derive specifications of VCO, phase detector, divider to meet performance requirement of high data-rate communication using QAM under phase noise influence.

Curve squealing of inter-city railway vehicle is a noise with high acoustic pressure and rather narrow frequency spectra. This noise turns out to be very annoying for the people living in the neighborhood of locations and the passenger in railway vehicle where this phenomenon occurs. Squealing is caused by a self-exited stick-slip oscillation in the wheel-rail contact. Curve squeal noise of railway vehicles that passed by a factor of the speed limit, so to overcome in order to improve running performance is one of the largest technology. In the present paper, characteristic of squeal noise behavior at the Hanvit-200 tilting train test-site. Curve squealing of railway wheels/rail contact occurs in R400~ R800 curves with a frequency range of about 4~11 kHz. If the curve is less than the radius of wheel frail contact due to |left-right| noise level difference (dBA) shows a significant effect of squeal noise were more likely.

The powertrain is an important factor for the interior and exterior noise behavior of the vehicle Thus, the noise vibration and harshness(NVH) behavior of an engine is becoming a major target of the powertrain development. This paper describes the analyses with the aim to reduce the vibration and noise of an advanced inline 4-cylinder diesel engine block by use of CAE methods. The characteristics of an engine block as a main excitation source of car interior noise is studied. Particularly, The effect of balance shaft to reduce the 2nd order engine excitation force is calculated by forced vibration and radiated noise analysis. The engine exitation forces are obtained under real operating conditions. It is shown that the reduction of vibration and noise level by adapting blancing shaft is well predicted and rediated noise is directly related to the surface velocity of engine block.

송신원의 파워 증가가 제한되고 인공잡음이 존재하는 지역에서 양질의 탄성파 자료를 획득하기 위하여 근/원기준점(reference)을 이용한 탄성파 잡음예측필터를 개발하였다. 잡음예측필터에 사용된 방법은 backpropagation 알고리즘을 이용한 3층의 인공신경망(neural network)으로서, 훈련자료(training data) 및 검증자료(testing data)에 훈련된 잡음예측필터를 적용시 신호대잡음비(signal-to-noise ration)를 약 3배 정도 증가시켰다. 그러나, 일반적으로 전기, 전자탐사 자료의 질을 향상하기 위해 사용되는 스케일링(scaling)기법으로는 전혀 탄성파의 잡음을 제거할 수 없었다.

Background: Dual-energy X-ray images (DEI) can distinguish or improve materials of interest in a two-dimensional radiographic image, by combining two images obtained from separate low and high energies. The concepts of DEI performance describing the performance of double-exposure DEI systems in the Fourier domain been previously introduced, however, the performance of double-exposure DEI itself in terms of various parameters, has not been reported. Materials and Methods: To investigate the DEI performance, signal-difference-to-noise ratio, modulation transfer function, noise power spectrum, and noise equivalent quanta were used. Low- and high-energy were 60 and 130 kVp with 0.01-0.09 mGy, respectively. The energy-separation filter material and its thicknesses were tin (Sn) and 0.0-1.0 mm, respectively. Noise-reduction (NR) filtering used the Gaussian-filter NR, median-filter NR, and anti-correlated NR. Results and Discussion: DEI performance was affected by Sn-filter thickness, weighting factor, and dose allocation. All NR filtering successfully reduced noise, when compared with the dual-energy (DE) images without any NR filtering. Conclusion: The results indicated the significance of investigating, and evaluating suitable DEI performance, for DE images in chest radiography applications. Additionally, all the NR filtering methods were effective at reducing noise in the resultant DE images.

본 논문에서는 온-칩 스파이럴 인덕터 해석에 대한 3차원 전자장 시뮬레이션 방법을 제시하였으며, 이 방법은 정확히 예측 가능한 CMOS VCO를 설계하는데 적용될 수 있음을 보였다. VCO는 CMOS 0.25 um 표준 공정을 이용하여 LC-공진형으로 구현하였으며, 공진기의 스파이럴 인덕터는 실리콘 기판과의 사이에 그라운드 패턴을 삽입한 경우와 그렇지 않은 경우에 대해 각각 VCO를 구현하여 인덕터의 Q값 개선에 의해 VCO의 위상 잡음이 어느 정도 개선되는지를 검증하였다. 제작된 VCO는 2.5 V 제어 전압에서 3.094 GHz, -12.15 dBm 출력을 가지며, LC 공진에 사용된 단일 인덕터의 Q는 그라운드 패턴을 삽입한 경우 3 GHz에서 8% 정도 개선됨을 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증하였으며, 이로 인한 위상 잡음은 3 MHz 오프셋 주파수에서 9 dB 개선되어짐을 실험을 통해 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 인터디지털 헤어핀 공진기를 이용하여 UTIS (도시 교통 정보 시스템)에 사용 가능한 저 위상잡음 발진기를 설계 및 제작하였다. 인터디지털 헤어핀 공진기는 기존의 소형화된 헤어핀 공진기에 인터디지털을 접목시켜 공진기의 물리적인 크기를 기존 대비 약 70%로 축소시켰고, 고조파 특성을 향상시켰다. 또한 132 의 높은 Q 값은 저 위상잡음 발진기 설계에 적합하다. UTIS 용 저 위상잡음 발진기는 5.75 GHz에서 출력 12 dBm 의 전력과 100 kHz offset 에서 -100.8 dBc/Hz 의 낮은 위상잡음을 얻었다. 이는 기존의 헤어핀을 이용한 발진기에 비해 12 dB 정도의 개선을 보여준다.

소음에 대한 인간의 심리적 인지는 소음의 여러 가지 물리적 요인에 의하여 영향을 받는다. 그러나 현재의 환경소음 평가는 A 가중치 등가 소음 수준을 기준으로 평가되고 있으며 인간의 다양한 감성적 요인을 반영하지 못하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 환경소음 평가를 위하여 환경소음원 43개에 대하여 주관평가와 통계적 분석방법을 사용하여 인간의 감성에 영향을 주는 음질인자 (Sound quality factor)를 분석하였다. 분석방법은 먼저 다양한 환경소음원에 대한 음질물리량 (Sound quality metrics)을 분석하여 음원을 분류하였으며 분류된 음원의 주된 음질 물리량을 고찰하였다. 그리고 쌍대비교법 (Paired comparisons method)과 어의분별척도법 (Semantic differential method)을 사용하여 주관 평가를 실시하고 음질의 요인을 분석하였으며 물리량과의 관계를 규명하였다. 마지막으로 요인에 대한 물리량의 기여도를 분석함으로써 환경소음의 감성적 인지에 대한 기초 물리량을 설정하였다.
