본 논문은 신호처리가 가능한 2진 로가리즘 상수를 발생시키기 위한 programmable variable-rate up/down 계수기의 설계를 기술한다. 2진수에 대한 밑수가 2인 로가리즘 계승의 적용은 결 과적으로 오차가 발생한다. log\sub 2\(1+χ)-χ에 의해 정의된 것처럼 log\sub 2\(1+χ)에서의 오차는 직선의 집합으로 갖게된다. 계수기 rate는 직선의 기울기에 비례한다. 그러므로 신호처리가 가능한 2진 로가리즘 상수는 programmable 계수기를 사용함으로써 쉽게 발생될 수 있다.

A novel rte control algorithm consisting of two major components, i.e. a variable encoding frame rate method and a hybrid DCT/wavelet I-frame coding scheme, is proposed in this work for low bit rate video coding. Most existing rate control algorithms for low bit rate video focus on bit allocation at the macroblock level under a constant frame rate assumption. The proposed rate control algorithm is able to adjust the encoding frame rate at the expense of tolerable time-delay. Furthermore, an R-D optimized hybrid DCT/wavelet scheme is used for effective I-frame coding. The new rate-control algorithm attempts to achieve a good balance between spatial quality and temporal quality to enhance the overall human perceptual quality at low bit rates. It is demonstrated that the rate control algorithm achieves higher coding efficiency at low bit rates with a low additional computational cost. The variable frame rate method and hybrid I-frame coding scheme are compatible with the bi stream structure of H.263+.

This paper proposed variable threshold dual rate ADPCM coding method which is modified from the standard ADPCM of ITU G.726 for speech quality improvement. The speech quality of variable threshold dual rate ADPCM is better than single rate ADPCM at noisy environment without increasing the complexity by using ZCR(Zero Crossing Rate). In this case, ZCR is used to divide input signal samples into two categories(noisy & speech). The samples with higher ZCR is categorized as the noisy region and the samples with lower ZCR is categorized as the speech region. Noisy region uses higher threshold value to be compressed by 16Kbps for reduced bit rates and the speech region uses lower threshold value to be compressed by 40Kbps for improved speech quality. Comparing with the conventional ADPCM, which adapts the fixed coding rate. the proposed variable threshold dual rate ADPCM coding method improves noise character without increasing the bit rate. For real time applications, ZCR calculation was considered as a simple method to obtain the background noise information for preprocess of speech analysis such as FFT and the experiment showed that the simple calculation of ZCR can be used without complexity increase. Dual rate ADPCM can decrease the amount of transferred data efficiently without increasing complexity nor reducing speech quality. Therefore result of this paper can be applied for real-time speech application such as the internet phone or VoIP.

본 논문에서는 소형 무인기 데이터 링크 시스템에 적용이 가능한 전송률 가변 비대칭 TDD(Time Division Duplex) 방식에 대해 다루었다. 긴 복호 시간이 필요한 터보 복호기를 비대칭 TDD 방식에 적용하기 위하여 이중 버퍼 제어기 구조의 터보 복호기를 제안하였다. 제안 방법은 전송률 가변과 동일 송수신 시간에 최대의 데이터 전송이 가능하다. 제안 방식을 적용한 데이터 링크 시스템을 제작하여 성능을 확인하였다. 측정 결과, 대칭 TDD 방식에 비해 전송률은 최대 약 1.8배 증가하였다. PER(Packet Error Rate) 성능은 동일하며, 전송률 가변이 가능함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we implement the large variable vocabulary speech recognition system, which is characterized by no additional pre-training process and no limitation of recognized word list. We have designed the system in order to achieve the high recognition rate using the decision tree based state tying algorithm and in order to reduce the processing time using the gaussian selection based variable flooring algorithm, the limitation algorithm of the number of nodes and ENNS algorithm. The gaussian selection based variable flooring algorithm shows that it can reduce the total processing time by more than half of the recognition time, but it brings about the reduction of recognition rate. In other words, there is a trade off between the recognition rate and the processing time. The limitation algorithm of the number of nodes shows the best performance when the number of gaussian mixtures is a three. Both of the off-line and on-line experiments show the same performance. In our experiments, there are some differences of the recognition rate and the average recognition time according to the distinction of genders, speakers, and the number of vocabulary.

Precision farming has been known as an environment friendly farming technology. This study was conducted to develop a variable-rate granule fertilizer applicator as an attempt for introducing the precision farming technologies to rice cultivation in Korea. In this paper, concept design process and manufacturing of prototype variable rate granule applicator was reported. For concept design, some design guide lines were selected. Based on the design guide line and some engineering knowledge, concept design was conducted. The designed prototype granule applicator was mounted at the rear of riding type cultivator for paddy field and had a 10m wide boom structure with pneumatic conveying and application system as well as 1GPS receiver, 1 granule hopper, 12 blow heads, 2 metering devices and 1 controller. The fertilizer applicator had 942 ka of weight, 740m of ground clearance and 1,117mm of center of gravity from the ground. The applicator was designed to be able to $34{\sim}428kg/ha$ of granule at $0.2{\sim}0.8m/s$ of fertilizer working speed.

An experimental variable rate nursery sprayer was developed to adjust application rates for canopy volume in real time. The sprayer consisted of two vertical booms integrated with ultrasonic sensors, and variable rate nozzles coupled with pulse width modulation (PMW) based solenoid valves. A custom-designed microcontroller instructed the sensors to detect canopy size and occurrence and then controlled nozzles to achieve variable application rates. A spray delivery system, which consisted of diaphragm pump, pressure regulator and 4-cycle gasoline engine, offered the spray discharge function. Spray delay time, time adjustment in spray trigger for the leading distance of the sensor, was measured with a high-speed camera, and it was from 50 to 140 ms earlier than the desired time (398 ms) at 3.2 km/h under indoor conditions. Consequently, the sprayer triggered 4.5 to 12.5 cm prior to detected targets. Duty cycles of the sprayer were from 20 to 34 ms for senor-to-canopy (STC) distance from 0.30 to 0.76 m. Outdoor test confirmed that the nozzles were triggered from 290 to 380 ms after detecting tree canopy at 3.2 km/h. The spray rate of the new sprayer was 58.4 to 85.2% of the constant application rate (935 L/ha). Spray coverage was collected at four areas of evergreen canopy by water sensitive papers (WSP), and ranged from 1.9 to 41.1% and 1.8 to 34.7% for variable and constant rate applications, respectively. One WSP area had significant (P < 0.05) difference in mean spray coverage between two application conditions.

This paper describes the design of a variable rate QPSK demodulator for digital satellite TV system. This true variable-rate demodulator employs a unique architecture to realize an all digital synchronization and detection algorithm. Data-flow based design approach enabled a seamless transition from high level design optimization to physical layout. The demodulator has been integrated with Viterbi decoder, de-interleaver, and Ree-Solomon decoder to make a single chip Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) receiver. The receiver IC has been fabricated with a 0.5mm CMOS TLM process and proved fully functional in a real-world set-up.

This paper proposes the methods to enhance the speech quality of source controlled variable bit-rate coder based on the waveform interpolation. The methods are to estimate and generate the parameters that are not transmitted from encoder to decoder by the repetition and extrapolation schemes. For the performance evaluation, the PESQ(Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality) scores are measured. The experimental results shows that our proposed method outperforms the conventional source controlled variable bit-rate coder. Especially, the performance of the extrapolation method is better than that of the repetition method.
