Because salt and pepper noise is a type of impulse, even a small amount of noise could cause a large image degradation. In this paper, we proposed a salt-and-pepper noise removal method using the convolutional neural network. It consists of four phases. In the first step, the proposed method reconstructs noisy image using a traditional salt-and-pepper noise reduction method, and in the second step, the result image of previous step is filtered with Gaussian low pass filter. After that, we reconstruct the filtered image using convolution neural network. In the last step, the pixels with salt-and-pepper noise are replaced with the result of previous phase. Simulation results show that the proposed method yields not only objective image qualities(PSNR, SSIM) but also subjective image qualities for all SAP noise ratios.

This paper applies a compensated low pass filter (LPF) to current measurements for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives. The noise limits the bandwidth of current controllers and has more adverse influences on control performances under the light load condition because of the low signal-to-noise ratio. In order to eliminate the noise sensitivity, this paper proposes a digital LPF with a compensator of gain attenuation and phase delay which are unacceptable in current information for PMSM drives. Characteristics of the proposed LPF are analyzed in comparison with the general LPFs. The compensated LPF is basically designed by the orthogonal property of the measured currents in the ${\alpha}{\beta}$ stationary reference frame. In addition, an implementation issue of the proposed method is discussed. Experimental results using the proposed method show improvements of the current control performance from two perspectives, rapid step responses and reductions of harmonic distortion.

Extremely selective high temperature superconducting (HTS) band -pass filters were developed for the base transceiver station applications of Digital Cellular communication Service (DCS). The filters have a bandwidth of 25 MHz at a center frequency of 834 MHz. There are 12 resonators which have spiral-meander microstrip-line structures in order to reduce far-field radiations with a reasonable tunability. As a result, the size of filters is 5 mm $\times$ 17 mm $\times$ 41 mm. Device characteristics exhibited a low insertion loss of -0.4 dB with a -0.2 dB ripple and a return loss better than -10 dB in the pass-band at 65 K. The out-of-band signals were attenuated better than 60 dB about 3.5 MHz from the lower band edge, and 3.8 MHz from the higher band edge.

Recently genetic algorithm techniques have widely used in adaptive and control schemes for production systems. However, generally it costs a lot of time for learning in the case applied in control system. Furthermore, the physical meaning of genetic algorithm constructed as a result is not obvious. And this method has been used as a learning algorithm to estimate the parameter of a genetic algorithm used for identification of the process dynamics of nonlinear IIR filter and it was shown that this method offered superior capability over the genetic algorithm. A genetic algorithm is used to solve the parameter identification problem for linear and nonlinear digital filters. This paper goal estimate nonlinear IIR filter parameter using the genetic algorithm.

A fully differential RC calibrator for accurate cut-off frequency of a programmable channel selection filter is proposed. The proposed RC calibrator consists of an RC timer, clock generator, synchronous counter, digital comparator, and control block. To verify the proposed RC calibrator, a six-order Chebyshev programmable low-pass filter with adjustable 3 dB cut-off frequency, which is controlled by the proposed RC calibrator, was implemented in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The channel selection filter with the proposed RC calibrator draws 1.8 mA from a 1.8 V supply voltage and the measured 3 dB cut-off frequencies of the channel selection LPF is controlled accurately by the RC calibrator.

본 논문에서는 기존의 알고리즘에서 벗어나 새로이 제안된 유전자 알고리즘을 이용하여 디지털 필터를 설계하는데 목적이 있다. 이 방법은 아날로그 필터에서 디지털 필터로의 전환이 불필요하며, 기존의 디지털 필터 설계방법과는 달리 저역통과(low-pass), 고역통과(high-pass), 대역통과(band-pass), 대역소거(band-stop) 필터와 같은 주파수 선택별 필터를 각각 독립적으로 설계 가능하게 하고, 이에 따른 계산 손실을 줄일 수 있다. 유전자 알고리즘을 사용하는데 있어 적합도 함수는 주파수 응답 크기를 이용한다. 실제로 주파수 응답특성과 디지털 필터의 계수와는 밀접한 관계가 있으므로, 원하는 필터의 주파수응답특성을 통해, 디지털 필터의 계수를 최적화 한다. 또한 필터계수 최적화 과정에 있어, 선택, 교배, 돌연변이와 같은 유전 연산자 적용시 필터의 계수들은 각각 안정도가 보장되어지는 범위내에서 선택되게 한다. 디지털 필터를 설계한 후 기존의 방법과 새로이 제안된 방법의 성능을 비교 평가 한다.

There have been many researches to yield higher resolution image quality from the low resolution CCD device. The resolution of it is primary factor for the image quality of digital still camera and in manufacturing price. IN this paper, image enlargement algorithm, which reduces blocking effect of enlarged low resolution image and minimizes ringing and blur effect occurring around edge in linear interpolation, is proposed. This algorithm is composed of gaussian low pass filter which eliminates aliasing, least square spline interpolation and non-linear interpolation based on step edge model.

In this paper we present the design of Low Noise Amplifier(LNA), mixer and filter for RF front-end part of partial discharge monitoring system. The monitoring system of partial discharge in high voltage power machinery is used to prevent many kinds of industrial accidents, and is usually composed of three parts - sensor, RF front-end and digital microcontroller unit. In our study, LNA, mixer and filter are key components of the RF front-end. The LNA consists of common gate and common source-cascaded structure and uses the resistive feedback for broad band matching. A coupled line structure is utilized to implement the filter, of which size is reduced by the meander structure. The mixer is designed using dual gate structure for high isolation between RF and local oscillator signal.

In this paper, we describe the digital signal-processing for ultrasonic echo signals for the improvement of range resolution. The problem is to find the magnitude of analytic signals that are consistent with the arrival-rate of energy. It is also baaed upon the fact that the shapes of echo signals do not change, although the ampli- tudes and widths of the echo signals become smaller and wider than those of the transmitted signals. We have made the improvement in range resolution by using the quadrature-low pass filter and the area filter which are made on the basis of the theory discussed above.

In this paper, an optical fiber sensor(OF sensor) utilizing the principal of Sagnac interferometer was proposed to detect the discharge signals. The needle-sphere electrode system in insulating oil generated the signals. The performance of OF sensor was checked by sinusoidal calibration signal generated by PZT actuator at 198KHz. The detected discharge signals consisted of acoustic signal and the electrical noise. The noise signal could be removed by digital low pass filter. It was demonstrated that the OF sensor in this research had a possibility to detect the discharge signals in power apparatus.
