This research is to develop PPG filtering method for respiration measurement in U-Health Care system. Respiration rate was determined by filtering PPG and analyzing its spectrum. Optimal filter of PPG has been selected to get respiration by testing 120 sets of experiment data using 700 filtering cases. As a result, 2nd order Bessel-filter that used band-pass cutoff frequency at 0.175~0.4Hz with second order was good at developing respiration signal. Respiration signal in time domain could be continuously analyzed by converting frequency domain using spectrum analysis. 24 seconds has been found to be optimal time duration of collecting PPG data for determining respiration. Therefore, this study was successful of getting not only heart activity but also respiration by only PPG. Minimal invasive measurement obtaining multi-bio information by one sensor can be expected to apply to U-Health Care and human computer interaction.

In this paper, we investigate the co-movements of the real GDP cycle and the telecommunications service expenditure cycle over 1980 through 2000 in Korea. We used several appropriate statistical tools to characterize and to compare the co-movements between the two aforementioned variables. The statistics presented in this paper are common, easy to Interpret and capture important visual, descriptive information and the dynamics of data that would be lost if one focused only on the unconditional correlation coefficients of de-trended data. This paper examines four possible characteristics for the co-movements of real GDP and telecommunications service expenditure in Korea. The first is that in low frequency, the cyclical movements in telecommunications service expenditure are very similar to the cyclical movements in real GDP, The second is that in the high frequency, the estimated stationary cyclical telecommunications service expenditure is not closely related to the estimated stationary cyclical real GDP. Third, according to co-spectra analysis, the strong relationships between the variables are found in the mid-term frequency and as such this empirical finding has important implications for telecommunications policy and telecommunications service implementation strategies. Finally, in the short-term period, our empirical results support telecommunications network theories such as path dependence properties, lock-in, positive feedback externality, and network externality.

본 논문에서는 웨이블릿 변환 기반 스케일러블 비디오 부호화에서 가장 중요한 요소 기술인 움직임 보상 시간적 필터링 방법의 성능에 관련된 요소들의 특성을 파악하고, 기존의 DCT 기반의 하이브리드 부호화에서 사용된 움직임 예측 방법과 가변 크기 블록을 사용한 움직임 예측 방법을 적용한 향상된 MCTF (Motion Compensated Temporal Filtering) 방법을 제안한다. 이를 통하여 시간적 필터링 과정에서의 연결성을 높이고, 프레임간 에너지를 저/고주파 프레임으로 효율적으로 분해할 수 있다. 그 결과, 고주파 프레임의 에너지를 줄여, 엔트로피 부호화 비트율을 줄일 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법을 적용하여 모의 실험한 결과, 고주파 프레임에 포함된 에너지가 최대 25.86%까지 감소하는 것을 확인하였다.

Through matched filtering synthetic aperture radar (SAR) produces high-resolution imagery from data collected by a relative small antenna. While the impulse response obtained by the matched filter approach produces the best achievable signal-to-noise ratio, large sidelobes must be reduced to obtain higher-resolution SAR images. So, many enhancement methods of SAR imagery have been proposed. As a deconvolution method, the phase-extension inverse filtering is based on the characteristics of the matched filtering used in SAR imaging. It improves spatial resolution as well as effectively suppresses the sidelobes with low computational complexity. In the phase-extension inverse filtering, the impulse response is obtained from simulation with a point target. But in a real SAR environment, for example ERS-1, the impulse response is distorted by many non-ideal factors. So, in the phase-extension inverse filtering for a real SAR processing, the magnitudes of the frequency transfer function have to be compensated to produce more desirable results. In this paper, an estimation method to obtain a more accurate impulse response from a real SAR image is studied. And a compensation scheme to produce better performance of the phase-extension inverse filtering is also introduced.

DIrectional Frequency Analysis and Recording(DIFAR) 소노부이는 대잠전에 효과적인 무기체계로 하나의 무지향성 센서와 두 개의 지향성 센서로 구성된 3채널 빔형성을 통해 표적의 방향을 탐지한다. 하지만, 주변 소음의 영향으로 DIFAR소노부이의 특정방위(0°, 90°, 180°, 270°) 표적 탐지 성능이 저하되는 단점이 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 주변 소음을 추정하고 제거를 통해 DIFAR 소노부이의 표적 탐지 성능을 향상시키는 방법을 제안하였다. 주변 소음 추정을 위해 소나신호처리에서 널리 쓰이는 Order Truncate Average(OTA)기법을, 추정된 소음을 제거하기 위해 음성신호처리에서 널리 쓰이는 위너필터링 기법을 사용하였다. 제안한 방법을 평가하기 위해 표적 방위추정 결과의 평균 제곱 오차를 비교한 결과 신호대잡음비 0 dB이하에서 제안한 방법이 효과적임을 확인할 수 있었다.

Filterbank multicarrier with offset quadrature amplitude modulation (FBMC-OQAM) is an attractive alternative to the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation technique. In comparison with OFDM, the FBMC-OQAM signal has better spectral confinement and higher spectral efficiency and tolerance to synchronization errors, primarily due to per-subcarrier filtering using a frequency-time localized prototype filter. However, the filtering process introduces intrinsic interference among the symbols and complicates channel estimation (CE). An efficient way to improve the CE in FBMC-OQAM is using a technique known as windowed frequency domain averaging (FDA); however, it requires a priori knowledge of the window length parameter which is set based on the channel's frequency selectivity (FS). As the channel's FS is not fixed and not a priori known, we propose a k-nearest neighbor-based machine learning algorithm to classify the FS and decide on the FDA's window length. A comparative theoretical analysis of the mean-squared error (MSE) is performed to prove the proposed CE scheme's effectiveness, validated through extensive simulations. The adaptive CE scheme is shown to yield a reduction in CE-MSE and improved bit error rates compared with the popular preamble-based CE schemes for FBMC-OQAM, without a priori knowledge of channel's frequency selectivity.

We demonstrate a simple method to generate a stable 40 GHz pulse train at 1550 nm by spectral filtering of a 10 GHz mode.locked pulse source using a fiber Fabry-Perot interferometer (FFPI). A high finesse FFPI with a 40 GHz free spectral range blocks successfully unwanted spectral components of a 10 GHz pulse source and passes only 40 GHz spaced spectral lines ensuring pulse repetition-frequency quadruplication of the input pulses.

Zero-Cross Detector makes pilot signal to control the power to CEDM(Control Element Drive Mechanism). Existing Zero-Cross Detectors has had a problem which can cause unexpected reactor trip resulted from fluctuating frequency of input signal coming from M/G Set. The existing Zero-Cross Detector can't work properly when power frequency is varying because it was designed to work under stable M/G Set operation, and produces wrong pilot signal and output voltage. In this report the Zero-Cross Detector is improved to resolve voltage fluctuating problem by using new devices such as digital noise filtering circuit, variable cycle compensator and alarm circuit. And through the performance verification it shows that new circuit is better than old one. If suggested detector is applied to plant, it is possible to use it under House Load Operation because stable voltage can be generated by new Zero-Cross Detector.

This paper proposes a method to improve the image quality by designing Unsharp Mask Filter (UMF) based on Retinex theory which controls the frequency pass characteristics adaptively. Conventional unsharp masking technique uses blurring image to emphasize sharpness of image. Unsharp Masking(UM) adjusts the original image and sigma to obtain a high frequency component to be emphasized by the difference between the blurred image and the high frequency component to the original image, thereby improving the contrast ratio of the image. In this paper, we design a Unsharp Mask Filter(UMF) that can process the contrast ratio improvement method of Unsharp Masking(UM) technique with one filtering. We adaptively process the contrast ratio improvement using Unsharp Mask Filter(UMF). We propose a method based on Retinex theory for adaptive processing. For adaptive filtering, we control the weights of Unsharp Mask Filter(UMF) based on the human visual system and output more effective results.

본 논문에서는 다중안테나 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 시스템에서의 인접 셀 혹은 인접 섹터 간섭제거 능력을 갖는 MIMO(Multi-Input Multi-Output) 수신 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘은 시간축에서의 Filtering 기법에 관한 기존의 연구와는 다르게 주파수 영역에 적용이 가능한 Pre-filtering 기법을 채널 추정을 위한 파일럿 심벌만을 이용하여 구현하였다. 또한 제안된 기법은 간섭성분이 MIMO(C-SM(Collaborative-Spatial Multiplexing)) 뿐만이 아니라 SIMO(Single-Input Multi-Out)이더라도 적용이 가능함을 이론적으로 검증하였다. 그리고 제안된 수신 알고리즘을 검증하기 위하여 IEEE 802.16e 표준의 UL-PUSC SR off에서의 모의실험을 수행하였다. 이를 통하여 제안된 알고리즘이 간섭 성분의 종류에 관계없이 적용이 가능함을 확인하였다. 또한 간섭 성분의 영향이 큰 경우에 대해서도 우수한 성능을 보장하여 시스템 Throughput 향상을 보장할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
