Air lubrication techniques for frictional drag reduction on ships have been proposed by numerous researchers since the 19th century. However, these techniques have not been widely adopted as questions persist about their drag reduction performance beyond the laboratory, as well as energy and economic cost-benefit. This paper draws on data from the literature to consider the suitability of air lubrication for large ocean going and U.S. Great Lakes ships, by establishing the basic energy economic calculations and presenting results for a hypothetical air lubricated ship. All the assumptions made in the course of the analysis are clearly stated so that they can be refined when considering application of air lubrication to a specific ship. The analysis suggests that, if successfully implemented, both air layer and partial cavity drag reduction could lead to net energy savings of 10 to 20%, with corresponding reductions in emissions.

A gust response analyses method based on Reduced Order Models (ROMs) was developed in the paper. Firstly, taken random signal as the input signal and adopt Single Input-Multi-Output (SIMO) training fashion, a ROM based on Auto-Regressive and Moving Average model (ARMA) was established and validated with the comparison of CFD/CSD and experiment. Then, by introducing control surface deflection and control laws, flutter active suppress was studied. Lastly, through filtering and transferring function, the gust temporal signal is obtained based on Dryden gust model, and gust response and suppress were simulated.

Blind channel identification and equalization attempt to identify the communication channel and to remove the inter-symbol interference caused by a communication channel without using any known trainning sequences. In this paper, we propose a blind adaptive channel identification and equalization algorithm with phase offset compensation for single-input multiple-output (SIMO) channel. It is based on the one-step forward multichannel linear prediction error method and can be implemented by an RLS algorithm. Phase offset problem, we use a blind adaptive algorithm called the constant modulus derotator (CMD) algorithm based on condtant modulus algorithm (CMA). Moreover, unlike many known subspace (SS) methods or cross relation (CR) methods, our proposed algorithms do not require channel order estimation. Therefore, our algorithms are robust to channel order mismatch.

주파수 선택적 페이딩 환경에서 두 사용자가 OFDM 기법과 단일 안테나를 이용하여 기지국으로 동시에 신호를 전송할 때 다이버시티 이득을 효과적으로 얻고 다른 사용자의 간섭을 제거할 수 있는 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 기존의 주파수-공간 부호화 기법을 변형한 것으로 부분 간섭 제거 및 연속 간섭 제거 수신기를 통해 낮은 복잡도로 두 사용자의 신호를 복구할 수 있다. 주파수 다이버시티를 고려하지 않은 기존의 다중 전송 신호를 ZF 및 최대우도 기법으로 복호하는 기법과 비교하여 제안하는 기법의 우수한 성능을 모의실험을 통해 고찰하였다.

This paper proposes a novel control method for a multi-output switched-resonant converter. Output voltage can be regulated against variations in the supply voltage and load by controlling the voltage of the resonant capacitor (pulse amplitude control). Precise control is possible when pulse amplitude control is combined with pulse number control. The converter is analyzed, and design considerations are explained by using examples. Control implementation is described and load regulation and ripples are analyzed by simulation and hardware results. The topology is modified to obtain an additional negative output without any additional hardware other than a diode. The analysis of such a triple output converter with two positive outputs and one negative output is conducted and confirmed. The topology and control scheme are scalable to any number of outputs.

Blind equalization of transmission channel is important in communication areas and signal processing applications because it does not need training sequences, nor dose it require a priori channel information. In this paper, an adaptive blind MMSE channel equalization technique based on second-order statistics in investigated. We present an adaptive blind MMSE channel equalization using multichannel linear prediction error method for estimating cross-correlation vector. They can be implemented as RLS or LMS algorithms to recursively update the cross-correlation vector. Once cross-correlation vector is available, it can be used for MMSE channel equalization. Unlike many known subspace methods, our proposed algorithms do not require channel order estimation. Therefore, our algorithms are robust to channel order mismatch. Performance of our algorithms and comparisons with existing algorithms are shown for real measured digital microwave channel.

The smart foam that is first proposed by Fuller(2) is not applicable to active noise control in a duct having flow. Thus. this paper presents the ring-type smart foam as an alternative. The ring-type smart foam consists of polyurethane acoustic foam of lining shape and PVDF film embedded along the mid-surface of the foam lining. A feedforward adaptive filtered-x LMS controller is used to minimize the signal from the error microphone. To enlarge quiet sound region. two error microphones are used to update system modeling filter (SIMO method). Sound intensity control using the ring-type smart foam is also discussed

This paper presents a fourth-order cumulants based iterative algorithm for blind channel equalization. It is robust with respect to the existence of heavy Gaussian noise in a channel and does not require the minimum phase characteristic of the channel. In this approach, the transmitted signals at the receiver are over-sampled to ensure the channel described by a full-column rank matrix. It changes a single-input/single-output (SISO) finite-impulse response (FIR) channel to a single-input/multi-output (SIMO) channel. Based on the properties of the fourth-order cumulants of the over-sampled channel outputs, the iterative algorithm is derived to estimate the deconvolution matrix which makes the overall transfer matrix transparent, i.e., it can be reduced to the identity matrix by simple reordering and scaling. Both a closed-form and a stochastic version of the proposed algorithm are tested with three-ray multi-path channels in simulation studies, and their performances are compared with a method based on conventional second-order cumulants. Relatively good results are achieved, even when the transmitted symbols are significantly corrupted with Gaussian noise.

수중통신은 해양 매질의 특성상 전달손실이 적은 음향을 사용함에 따라 육상에서의 전파통신보다 반송주파수가 낮아 신호의 대역폭이 제한되어 통신용량증가에 어려움이 따른다. 제한된 대역에 고속 및 대용량 전송이 필요해짐에 따라 MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) 통신에 대한 연구도 활발하다. MIMO 통신의 경우 지연확산 및 도플러확산 채널특성으로 인한 인접 심볼 간 간섭과 더불어 동일한 대역의 다중음원으로 인한 채널 간 간섭이 발생하므로 SIMO(Single Input Multiple Output) 통신에 비교하여 통신성능이 열악하다. 본 논문에서는 동시간대에 두 채널에서 송신된 신호가 한 채널에 간섭하여 수신되었을 경우 자기등화의 특성을 갖는 시역전 기법을 적용하여 보상 알고리즘을 단순화하고 채널 간 간섭을 완화하여 이 때의 통신성능을 확인하고자 한다. 또한 2015년 5월 동중국해 북부 해역에서 수행한 SAVEX15(Shallow-water Acoustic Variability Experiment 2015) 실험 데이터를 이용하여 이를 검증하고자 한다.
