To investigate failure analysis of surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter for radio frequency, high temperature storage test was carried out. The failure criteria were insertion loss at passband and rejection level at stopband. As a result, the insertion loss at passband increase about 4 dB was due to damages of interdigital transducer (IDT). That is caused by poor adhesion between metal electrode(AI) and piezoelectric substrate and defects on a manufacturing process. This result indicates that good adhesion between electrode and ceramic substrate is important factor And also we investigated the demage factors of electrode. Screen possible of saw filter using high temperature storage test(HTOL) in the manufacturing phase be presented.

In this paper, a novel method for designing an M-channel, causal, stable IIR cosine-modulated filter bank (CMFB) with near PR property is proposed. The IIR prototype filter is designed with a simple constraint using lattice stucture with 1st order allpass filter components. The IIR prototype filter which is designed by the proposed method has higher stopband attenuation and sharper roll-off characteristic than the one which is designed by the previously proposed method with similar complexity. The proposed M-channel IIR CMFB which is designed from this IIR prototype filter is applied to subband acoustic echo canceller (AEC). We obtained about 15dB higher ERLE using this subband AEC than when M-channel FIR subband AEC with similar complexity.

This paper proposes particle filter(PF) method using acoustic signal for localization of an underwater robot. The method uses time of arrival(TOA) or time difference of arrival(TDOA) of acoustic signals from beacons whose locations are known. An experiment in towing tank uses TOA information. Simulation uses TDOA information and it reveals dependency of the localization performance on the uncertainty of robot motion and senor data. Also, comparison of the PF method with the least squares method of spherical interpolation(SI) and spherical intersection(SX) is provided. Since PF uses TOA or TDOA which comes from measurement of external information as well as internal motion information, its estimation is more accurate and robust to the sensor and motion uncertainty than the least squares methods.

An adaptive algorithm for the acoustic echo canceller is presented. This paper proposes a modified LMS algorithm for the adaptive filter and applys the algorithm to he acoustic echo canceller, An objective of the proposed algorithm is to reduce the hardware complexity. In order to est the performances, a model of the echo path is established, and a program is described. The impulse reponses of the echo path have the length of 125msec or ore, and then the FIR filter with 1000 taps is required. he results from simulations show that the acoustic echo canceller adopting the proposed algorithm achieves the ERLE of 25dB or more within 1sec. If an echo canceller is implemented with this algorithm, its computation quantity s reduced to two times less than the one that is implemented with the normal LMS algorithm, without the degradation of performances.

An acoustic feedback canceller has some problems that are difficult to remove the acoustic feedback through acoustic feedback path. In this paper, a new method of acoustic feedback cancellation scheme is proposed using spectral subtraction. Microphone input signals are subtracted by estimated feedback signals which are estimated by Wiener filter using the correlation between microphone input signals and output signals of receiver.

In this paper, genetic algorithm (GA)-based Thin Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator (FBAR) RF filter design technique is proposed. Since the BVD(Butterworth-Van Dyke) lumped element model is valid only around the resonance, FBAR filter design technique based on BVD circuit has an approximate error. Instead of using BVD model, optimizing filter design method utilizes an analytical electrical impedance equation of FBAR. The geometry of FBAR such as thickness of the piezoelectric layer and area which significantly affect the filter response is optimized by GA. US-PCS Rx Bandpass filter obtained by the proposed technique shows a better response comparing with the typical and BVD-based filter.

The necessity of the filter coefficients compensation for the LTJ adaptive filter was explained generally and easily by analyzing it with respect to the time-varying transform domain adaptive filter. And also the reduction method of computational complexity for filter coefficients compensation was proposed and its effectiveness was verified through experiments using artificial and real speech signals. The proposed adaptive filter reduces the computational complexity for filter coefficients compensation by 95%, and when the filter is applied to the acoustic echo canceller with 1000 taps, the total complexity is reduced by 82%

In stereo acoustic echo canceller scheme, coefficients of adaptive filter converge very slowly or misconverge to real acoustic echo path in receiving room. This is due to cross-correlation in stereo signals. In this paper, a new preprocess algorithm is proposed to improve the performance of stereo AEC(acoustic echo canceller) without computational burden. The proposed algorithm reduces cross-correlation using Gram-Schmidt orthogonality principles and nonlinear filtering. Computer simulations demonstrate that this algorithm performs well compared to conventional ones. When the acoustic path of transmitting room is changed, stereo AEC using proposed algorithm is well performed.

In this paper, horn loudspeaker modeling was suggested, investigated and verified through comparison of test results and simulation ones based on input electrical impedance curves and acoustic sensitivity ones. First, Thiele Small parameters of horn driver were identified by using pseudo loudspeaker model concept and verified in case of both closed and open horndriver. Second, cone-shaped horn models were investigated and compared with input acoustic impedance curves for real horn(cone angle $6.6^{\circ}$) and short horn(cone angle $27.9^{\circ}$). It showed that Leach model for cone horn was well described to test results, which were electrical impedance and acoustic sensitivity, compared to Lemaitre one. To represent horn system model good approximation in wide frequency range, mass correction filter and lowpass filter were adopted and consequently showed good fitted to test results.

This paper has considered the location estimation problem in two dimension space by using a non-linear filter under non-Gaussian noise in underwater acoustic sensor networks(UASNs). Recently, the extended Kalman filter (EKF) is widely used in location estimation. However, the EKF has a lot of problems in the non-linear system under the non-gaussian noise environment like underwater environment. In this paper, we propose the improved Two-Dimension Particle Filter (TDPF) using the re-interpretation distribution techniques based on the maximum likelihood (ML). Through the simulation, we compared and analyzed the proposed TDPF with the EKF under the non-Gaussian underwater sensor networks. Finally, we determined that the TDPF's result shows more accurate localization than EKF's result.
