Bearing diagnostics is difficult in a gearbox because bearing signals are masked by the strong gear signals. Self adaptive noise cancellation(SANC) Is useful technique to seperate bearing signals from gear signals. While gear signals are correlated with a long correlation length, bearing signals are not correlated with a short length. SANC seperates two components on the basis of correlation length. (omitted)

In orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems, phase noise introduced by the local oscillators can cause bit error rate (BER) performance degradation. To solve the phase noise problem, a novel orthogonal-polarization-based phase noise self-cancellation (OP-PNSC) scheme is proposed. First, the efficiency of canceling the phase noise of the OP-PNSC scheme in the AWGN channel is investigated. Then, the OP-PNSC scheme in the polarization-dependent loss (PDL) channel is investigated due to power imbalance caused by PDL, and a PDL pre-compensated OP-PNSC (PPC -OP-PNSC) scheme is proposed to mitigate the power imbalance caused by PDL. In addition, the performance of the PPC-OP-PNSC scheme is investigated, where the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) and spectral efficiency (SE) performances are analyzed. Finally, a comparison between the OP-PNSC and polarization diversity scheme is discussed. The numerical results show that the BER and SINR performances of the OP-PNSC scheme outperform the case with the phase noise compensation and phase noise self-cancellation scheme.

In this paper, a phase-locked loop with a self-noise suppressing voltage controlled oscillator to improve a phase noise characteristic has been proposed. The magnitude of the proposed transfer function is maximum 25dB lower than that of a conventional transfer function around a bandwidth. The proposed PLL has been designed based on a 1.8V $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process and proved by HSPICE simulation.

A Experimental study on frequency characteristics of the microphone array covered with Kevlar in closed test section wind tunnel. Microphones that are flush mounted in a closed test section wall of wind tunnel are subject to very high flow noise resulting from the turbulence in the wall boundary layer. At this time the microphones measure the strong hydrodynamic fluctuations generated by the flow. The phenomena are referred to a microphone self-noise and a method for reducing this has studied. In this paper the array that covered with acoustically transparent Kevlar sheet was designed and made to reduce the flow-induced self-noise. For the validation frequency characteristics of the Kevlar, the microphone array was installed on the wall and test was performed for white noise and sine wave of several frequencies using loudspeaker. In addition, the paper compared the signals as a tension of Kevlar. The results were presented that tend to decrease the sound pressure level at high frequency above 3500Hz according to existence of Kevlar.

In this paper, we integrate a divide-by-3 injection-locked frequency divider (ILFD) in CMOS technology with a $0.18-{\mu}m$ BiCMOS process. We propose a self-injection technique that utilizes harmonic conversion to improve the locking range, phase-noise, and input sensitivity simultaneously. The proposed self-injection technique consists of an odd-to-even harmonic converter and a feedback amplifier. This technique offers the advantage of increasing the injection efficiency at even harmonics and thus realizes the low-power implementation of an odd-order division ILFD. The measurement results using the proposed self-injection technique show that the locking range is increased by 47.8% and the phase noise is reduced by 14.7 dBc/Hz at 1-MHz offset frequency with the injection power of -12 dBm. The designed divide-by-3 ILFD occupies $0.048mm^2$ with a power consumption of 18.2-mW from a 1.8-V power supply.

This paper presents a programmable RF BIST (Built-in Self-Test) circuit for low noise amplifiers. We have developed a new on-chip RF BIST circuit that measures RF parameters of low noise amplifier (LNA) using only DC measurements. The BIST circuit contains test amplifier with programmable capacitor banks and RF peak detectors. The test circuit utilizes output DC voltage measurements and these measured values are translated into the LNA specifications such as input impedance and gain using the mathematical equations. Our on-chip BIST can be self programmed for 1.8GHz, 2.4GHz and 5.25GHz LNA for GSM, Bluetooth and IEEE802.11g standards.

This paper presents a high resolution capacitive microaccelerometer for applications to personal information systems. We reduce the mechanical noise level of the microaccelerometer by increasing the proof-mass based on deep RIE process. We reduce the electrical noise level by increasing the amplitude of an AC sense voltage. The high sense voltage is obtained by DC-to-DC voltage multiplier. In order to solve the nonlinearity problem caused by the high sense voltage, we modify the conventional comb electrode of straight finger type into that of branched finger type, resulting in self force-balancing effects for enhanced detection linearity. The proposed branched finger capacitive microaccelerometer was fabricated by the deep RIE process of an SOI wafer. The fabricated microaccelerometer reduces the electrical noise at the level of $2.4{\mu}g/\sqrt{Hz}$ for the sense voltage of l6.5V, which is 10.1 times smaller than the electrical noise level of $24.3{\mu}g/\sqrt{Hz}$ at 0.9V. For the sense voltage higher than 2V, the electrical noise level of the microaccelerometer became smaller than the constant mechanical noise level of $11{\mu}g/\sqrt{Hz}$. Total noise level, including the electrical noise and the mechanical noise, has been measured as $9{\mu}g/\sqrt{Hz}$ for the sense voltage of 16.5V, which is 3.2 times smaller than the total noise of $28.6{\mu}g/\sqrt{Hz}$ for the sense voltage of 0.9V. The self force-balancing effect results in the increased stiffness of 1.98 N/m at the sense voltage of 17.8V, compared to the stiffness of 1.35 N/m at 0V, thereby generating the additional stiffness at the rate of $0.002N/m/V^{2}$.

The effects of screening hydrophones with open-cell foams for reduction of the infrasonic self-noise induced by the flow around hydrophones are investigated by at-sea experiment. Test results of the 10 ppi polyurethane open-cell foams with different thickness show that the foams of 1 cm and 3 cm thickness reduce the flow-induced self-noises up to 20 dB and 28 dB at the frequency band of 2-10 Hz, respectively.

The self-tuning control theory which has so far been studied has the type of a moving average noise mode. In this paper we propose a self-tuning munimum varinace control of the plant with an autoregressive noise model. New identities are introduced to find a munimum variance control input, and the stability and convergence properties in a closed loop system are studied using the BIBO concepts and ODE method. Also the proposed algorithm is compared withe that of the original self-tuning control by computer simulation.

OFDM System is a promising transmission technique due to its spectral efficiency But, a major disadvantage of the OFDM system is its sensitivity to frequency offset and phase noise that makes intercarrier interference (ICI), which degrades the system performance severely The ICI self-cancellation method has a good performance with frequency offset or phase noise. This paper proposed the N/2 spacing data-conjugate method that works well in large frequency offset and phase noise (normalized frequency offset=0.2-0.4, phase noise standard deviation=about lodes). Also, an efficiency ICI cancellation method using pilot was proposed. Simulation results confirm that performance of the proposed scheme is better than conventional schemes.
