The active noise cancellation system offers a better low frequency performance with a smaller and lighter system compared to a passive one. This paper presents an active noise control system capable of reducing the noise in a helmet after attenuating the external noise using the helmet as the passive noise reduction system, which consists of a controller for inverting and compensating the phase delay, a microphone for picking up the external noise, and a loudspeaker for radiating the acoustic anti-phase signal to reduce the external noise. In this paper, external noise can be reduced by noise controller by compensating the phase difference to be 180°in the frequency of maximun value in the amplitude response. The noise of the phase delay covered from 50°to 310°was reduced in this system and it is possible to obtain a noise reduction of up to approximately 20 dB at the ears in the enclosure.

This paper proposes a new fast block-matching algorithm, named MFSS(Modified Four-Step Search) algorithm, which has better performance and is more adequate for hardware realization than the existing fast algorithms. The proposed algorithm is suitable for hardware realization since it has a unique regularity during the search procedure. It is shown from simulation results that its performance is close to that of FS(Full Search) algorithm. This paper also proposes a VLSI architecture and presents some design results of a motion estimator and compensator which adopted the MFSS algorithm. The important aspects considered in designing a motion estimator and compensator are hardware complexity of design results, and total delay needed to generate the motion compensated data after finding the motion vectors. Hardware complexity is minimized by using just nine PE(Process Element)'s, and total delay is minimized by sharing search memory of the motion estimator and compensator.

This study analysed the center control emergency vehicle preemption[EVP] test result on the 1.782 km section around Gangbuk Fire Station. The pros and cons between center control and site control EVP was compared through the review of existing research. The test site was selected based on the higher link speed for choosing low congested area and 4 to 6 lane road. EVP operates green extension under the estimated arrival time to each intersection. This study is about EVP system field application and its evaluation by analyzing EVP operation result with the emergency vehicle's trace, GPS data. The impact on the surrounding traffic was analysed in delay from the queue length survey. Analysis showed the decrease in averge travel time 41.81%, but the increase in delay of surrounding traffic slightly. It is expected that EVP can be applied to the expanded area by researching EVP compensation scheme.

Synthetic zinc wave employs Pulsed plane wave as transmit beam with linear time delay curve. The received echoes in different transmit directions at different transmit times are superposed at imaging Points with Proper time delay compensation using synthetic focusing scheme. This scheme. which uses full aperture in transmit, obtains a high SNR image, and also features high lateral resolution by using two way dynamic focusing at all imaging depths. In this Paper, we consider the Problems in realization of synthetic zinc wave. Also. we have applied the scheme to obtain phantom and in-vivo images using a linear array of 5 MHz. In phantom test. experimental images show high resolution over a more extended imaging depth than conventional fixed Point transmit and receive dynamic focusing schemes In-vivo images show that the resolution could not overcome conventional focusing systems because of motion blurring and(or) aberration of tissue. but the frame rate tan be increased by a factor of more than 5 compared to conventional focusing schemes. with competitive resolution at all imaging depths .

For a missile with a strapdown seeker, line-of-sight rate for guidance is obtained by compensating the look angle rate from the strapdown seeker by the body angular rate from rate gyros. However, the body angular rate from rate gyros has different signal properties when it compared to the body angular rate implicitly included in the look angle rate. Typically this discrepancy causes instability of homing loop. In this paper, we propose a design method of homing loop where seeker delay is compulsively placed in the output signal of the rate gyros for accordance of both body rates. Also, PID control loop is considered for obtaining stabilized guidance command even though uncertainties of seeker delay is associated. The stability analysis for the linear homing loop before and after the compensation has been done. The stability and performance of the designed terminal homing loop is verified through full nonlinear 6-DOF simulations.

This paper presents a DC-DC buck converter with a Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) that can compensates for power efficiency degradation over a wide input range. Its switching frequency is kept at 2 MHz and the delay difference between the High side driver and the Low side driver can be minimized with respect to Process, Voltage and Temperature (PVT) variations by adopting the PLL. The operation mode of the proposed DC-DC buck converter is automatically changed to Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) or PWM frequency modes according to the load condition (heavy load or light load) while supporting a maximum load current of up to 1.2 A. The PWM frequency mode is used to extend the CCM region under the light load condition for the PWM operation. As a result, high efficiency can be achieved under the light load condition by the PWM frequency mode and the delay compensation with the PLL. The proposed DC-DC buck converter is fabricated with a $0.18{\mu}m$ BCD process, and the die area is $3.96mm^2$. It is implemented to have over a 90 % efficiency at an output voltage of 5 V when the input range is between 8 V and 20 V. As a result, the variation in the power efficiency is less than 1 % and the maximum efficiency of the proposed DC-DC buck converter with the PLL is 95.4 %.

In this paper, a modified fixed-delay tree search with decision feedback(FDTS/DF) for compensation of non-linear distortion in digital magnetic recording channels is discussed. Since the nonlinear distortion, which becomes significant as recording density increases, is generally well modeled by the discrete Volterra series, the proposed equlizer is composed of a nolinear feedforward filter, a linear feedback filter, and a nonlinear distorton table, the values of which are determined by considering the effect of nonlinear distortion due to future data as well as the previous and current one. At the decision stage of FDTS, a path minimizing the branch metric is chosen by using the previously detected values, current predicted value, and future predicted value. We compare the performance of the linear FDTS/DF, the previous nonlinear FDTS/DF, and the proposed nonlinear FDTS/DF by computer simulation, and confirm that the proposed one chieves the best performance at high-density recording.

The space radiation dose over air routes including polar routes should be carefully considered, especially when space weather shows sudden disturbances such as coronal mass ejections (CMEs), flares, and accompanying solar energetic particle events. We recently established a heliocentric potential (HCP) prediction model for real-time operation of the CARI-6 and CARI-6M programs. Specifically, the HCP value is used as a critical input value in the CARI-6/6M programs, which estimate the aviation route dose based on the effective dose rate. The CARI-6/6M approach is the most widely used technique, and the programs can be obtained from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). However, HCP values are given at a one month delay on the FAA official webpage, which makes it difficult to obtain real-time information on the aviation route dose. In order to overcome this critical limitation regarding the time delay for space weather customers, we developed a HCP prediction model based on sunspot number variations (Hwang et al. 2015). In this paper, we focus on improvements to our HCP prediction model and update it with neutron monitoring data. We found that the most accurate method to derive the HCP value involves (1) real-time daily sunspot assessments, (2) predictions of the daily HCP by our prediction algorithm, and (3) calculations of the resultant daily effective dose rate. Additionally, we also derived the HCP prediction algorithm in this paper by using ground neutron counts. With the compensation stemming from the use of ground neutron count data, the newly developed HCP prediction model was improved.

In order to maintain customer voltages within allowable limit($220{\pm}13V$) as much as possible, tap operation strategy of SVR(Step Voltage Regulator) installed in distribution system is very important, considering the scheduled delay time(30 sec) of SVR. However, the compensation of BESS(Battery Energy Storage System) during the delay time of SVR is being required because the customer voltages in distribution system interconnected with PV(Photovoltaic) system have a difficultly to be kept within allowable limit. Therefore, this paper presents the optimal voltage stabilization method in distribution system by using coordination operation algorithm between BESS and SVR. It is confirmed that customer voltage in distribution system can be maintained within allowable limit($220{\pm}13V$).

Due to the characteristics of the railway system, a fleet consists of multiple railway vehicles, and a project contract is made by supplying multiple fleets to the customer. If the project fails to meet the due date, the manufacturer must compensate for the delay to the customer. In this paper, we analyze the operation strategies of the railway vehicle manufacturing factory using simulation, in which the layout adopts the concept of the flow lines, and when shortages of parts are considered. If there is a shortage of parts, the subsequent assembly process cannot proceed due to the nature of the assembly process. Thus, in order to overcome this problem, three strategies for performing assembly work are presented when the events of shortages are occurred. We also compare the strategies with respect to reduce the total cost which includes labor costs and compensation costs for delay.
