  • A three dimension(3D) link analysis is peformed considering multipath effects caused by a reflected signal and the difference angle between the antenna bore-sight and Line-Of-Sight(LOS). In addition, a direction of a receive antenna is determined for a receiver to get maximum signal strength in a telemetry situation. For a fixed receive antenna, the angle is determined to maximize the average Carrier to Noise Ratio(CNR) over the interested part of a trajectory. For a tracking antenna, the angle at every position is selected to give maximum CNR or to direct the boresight to the flying projectile.

  • This paper shows a practical approach that is robust to the errors causing path-delay in mobile wireless location, and analyzes its performance by comparing with other methods. NLOS(non-line-of-sight) error and multipath are two big sources of positioning error in wireless location. Contrary to GPS(global positioning system), they result from the terrestrial propagation of a signal. Especially, since LOS(line-of-sight) path between a transceiver and a receiver is blocked by intermediate buildings and topography, NLOS causes a signal to be reflected and diffracted. This path-delay error is very localized, and so, it is not easy to be estimated and mitigated. To treat such localized error, therefore ...

  • The study of applying wavelet transform in power cable system fault location has been recognized by many researchers and investigated. For performance of fault location, the fault generated transients can be captured at one end of the cable or both ends. Between two approaches, single-ended approach is less expensive and more reliable as it doesn't need communication link between the ends of the cable. So, we performs the approach based on the one. In this paper, we are going to introduce a new algorithm to discriminate the transient and the reflected signal using wavelet coefficient. For wavelet transform, the stationary wavelet transform(SWT) is applied instead of conventional DWT because SWT has redundancy properties which is more useful in noisy signal processing.

  • A novel fiber-optic sensor system is suggested in which fiber Bragg grating sensors are demodulated by a wavelength-sweeping fiber laser source and a spectrometer. The spectrometer consists of a diffraction grating and a 512-pixel photo-diode array. The reflected Bragg wavelength information is transformed into spatial intensity distribution on the photo-diode array. The peak locations linearly correspond to the Bragg wavelengths, regardless of the nonlinearities in the wavelength tuning mechanism of the fiber laser. The high power density of the fiber laser enables obtaining high signal-to-noise ratio outputs. The improved demodulation characteristics were experimentally demonstrated with a fiber Bragg grating sensor array with 5 gratings. The sensor outputs were in much more linear fashion compared with the conventional tunable band-pass filter demodulation. Also it showed advantages in signal processing, due to the high level of photo-diode array signals, over the broadband light source system, especially in measurement of fast varying dynamic physical quantities.

  • The paper studies effect of quasi-periodic or airplane flutter phenomenon on television broadcasting signal. Airplane flutter is a very important problem. It causes the receiving antenna to receive both direct signal by the Tx (Transmitter antenna) and reflected signal scattered by the airplane with phase delay. The sum of two signals results in fading, sometime collapse and distortion of picture on TV screen. We performed measurement and modeling this phenomenon on TV signal when the airplane flew across and range Tx and Rx (Receiver antenna). The frequency 60.75MHz (Aural frequency of CH3) is used under tests. A single scatter multipath model is introduced. It is used to duplicate some of the measured data and show the dependence of power variation on the airplane fluttering. The fluctuation of the airplane flutter phenomenon was calculated to be around 2-4dB. The Yaki antenna is used for improving airplane flutter problem because it can make high gain and high directivity.

  • Image coding based on mixed raster content model generates don't care regions (DCR) in foreground and background layers, and its overall coding performance is greatly affected by region filling methods for DCRs. Most conventional methods for DCR filling fail in utilizing the local signal properties in hole regions and thus the high frequency components in non-DCR regions are reflected into DCR after signal filling. In addition, further high frequency components are induced to the filled signal because of signal discontinuities in the boundary of DCR. To solve this problem, a new DCR filling algorithm using the priority-based adaptive region growing is proposed in this paper. The proposed method uses the watershed algorithm and the flooding priority of each pixel for region filling is determined from the degree of smoothness in the neighborhood area. By growing the filled region into DCR based on the computed priority, the expansion of high-textured area can be minimized which can improve the overall coding performance. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms conventional algorithms.

  • This paper presents an active acoustic-reflection control algorithm based on a single sensor. The proposed algorithm operates in a system comprising a single sensor located nearby the reflective surface and a control transducer mounted on the reflective surface. First, the incident and reflected acoustic signals are separated from the sensor signal, and a control signal is generated using the separated signals. For the signal separation, the proposed algorithm requires the response of the reflection path which is estimated from the acoustic response between an external sound source and the sensor. Finally, the control filter is adjusted using the FxLMS (Filtered-x Least Mean Square) algorithm. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, it was implemented in real time using a DSP (Digital Signal Processing) board, and the experimental results obtained in one-dimensional air-acoustic environment show that the reflections of the 1 kHz burst can be reduced by 11.6 dB.

  • In this paper we propose three existing reflection removal algorithms and one proposed algorithm to estimate accurate targets in near field using IR-UWB (Impulse-Radio Ultra Wideband) radar. The received signal includes unnecessary reflected wave signals to the target signal. A reflective cancellation algorithm was used to remove unnecessary signals and estimate only the correct target signal. The location of the targets is estimated in real time with one transmitting antenna and one receiving antenna. In order to overcome the disadvantages of the existing three reflection removal algorithms, we propose a new reflection removal algorithm and estimate the most accurate target. Also we used DSP(Digital Signal Processor) to install the external mounting of vehicles. This paper will contribute to the study of the future reflections.

  • This paper is a part of developing a software that predicts the infrared signal emitted from a ground object by considering solar irradiation. The radiance emitted from a surface can be calculated by using the temperature and optical characteristics of the surface object. The bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) is defined as the ratio of reflected radiance to incident irradiance. It is a very important surface reflection property that decides the reflected radiance from the object. In this paper, the spectral radiance received by a remote sensor over the mid-wave infrared(MWIR), and the long-wave infrared(LWIR) regions are computed and compared each other for several different materials. The results show that the optical surface properties such as the BRDF and the emissivity of the object surface can play a major role in generating the infrared signatures of various objects, and the largest infrared signal may reach up to 10 times the smallest one when the infrared signals obtained from a flat plate with different surface conditions under the sun light.
