The signals that can be obtained from a rotating machine often convey the information of machine. For example, if the machine under investigation has faults, then we can measure the signal which has a pulse train, embedded in noise. Therefore the ability to detect the fault signal in noise determines the degree of diagnosis level of rotating machine. In this paper, minimum variance cepstrum (MV cepstrum), which can easily detect impulse in noise, has been applied to detect the type of faults of ball bearing system. To test the performance of this technique, experiment has been performed for ball bearing elements that have man made faults. Results show that minimum variance cepstrum can easily detect the periodicity due to faults.

Digital images are often corrupted by impulse noise, and it is very important to remove random-valued impulse noise. Cleaning such noise is far more difficult than cleaning salt and pepper impulse noise. In this paper, we proposed an efficient way to remove random-valued impulse noise from digital images. This novel method comprises two stages. The first stage is to detect the random-valued impulse noise in the image and the pixels are roughly divided into two classes, which are "noise-free pixel" and "noise pixel". Then, the second stage is to eliminate the random-valued impulse noise from the image. In this stage, only the "noise pixels" are processed. The "noise-free pixels" are copied directly to the output image. Simulation results indicated that our method provides a significant improvement over many other existing algorithms.

This paper applies the arc detection algorithm to prevent the false detection in photo voltaic series arc detection circuit, which is required not only to detect the series arc quickly, but also not falsely detect the arc for the non-arc noise. For this purpose, this study proposes a rapid and preventive false detection method of single peak noise and short noise signals. First, to prevent false detection by single peak noise, Discrete wavelet transform (DWT)-based characteristic parameters are applied to determine the shape and the amplitude of the noise. In addition, arc fault detection within a few milliseconds is performed with the DWT iterative algorithm to quickly prevent false detection for short noise signals, considering the continuity of serial arc noise. Thus, the method operates not only to detect series arc, but also to avoid false arc detection for peak and short noises. The proposed algorithm is applied to real-time serial arc detection circuit based on the TMS320F28335 DSP. The serial arc detection and peak noise filtering performances are verified in the built simulated arc test facility. Furthermore, the filtering performance of short noise generated through DC switch operation is confirmed.

Conventional cepstrum has been widely used to detect echo and fault signals embedded in noise. One of the problems of finding impulse signals using the conventional cepstrum in that it is normally very sensitive to signal to noise ratio (SNR). This paper proposes a signal processing method to detect impulse signal in noisy environment. Because the proposed method minimizes the variance of signal power at a cepstrum domain, it is suggested to be called as minimum variance cepstrum (MV cepstrum). Computer simulations have been performed to understand the characteristics of the MV cepstrum. Both mathematical approach and computer simulations confirmed that the MV cepstrum is a useful technique to detect impulse in noisy environment.

This paper represents a real time algorithm which improves the some drawbacks in the past methods for detection of the QRS conplexes of ECG signals. In the conventional method we can't detect QRS complex and QRS duration more correctly in case of (1) the contaminated ECG with 60Hz noise, muscle noise. (2) the movement of the baseline for a QRS complex. (3) being abnormal QRS complex with prolonging QRS. Therefore, we have proposed a new algorithm which can detect accurate QRS complex detection in case of the contaminated ECG with 60Hz noise, muscle noise, and movement of baseline for QRS complex. Moreover, in case of prolonging QRS we accomplished to detect not only QRS complex but also a single pulse that has a width proportional to QRS duration. This algorithm which is proposed in our paper in our paper in programmed with 6502 assembly language for real time ECG signal processing.

It is very important to detect the bearing defects in rotating machinery since the critical failure of bearing cause a machinery shutdown. However it is difficult to detect the vibration signal resulting from the initial defects of bearing because of the high level of broadband noise. A signal processing technique, called the adaptive line enhancer(ALE) as one of adaptive filter, is studied in this work. This technique is to eliminate broadband noise without a prior knowledge of the noise and signal characteristics. Also we propose the optimal methods for selecting the three main ALE parameters such as correlation length, filter order and adaptation constant used in the adaptative process. Vibration signals for three abnormal bearings, including inner and outer raceways and ball defects, were acquired from Anderon(angular derivative of radius on)meter. The experimental results showed that the proposed technique can reliably detect the bearing defective signals masked by broadband noise.

In passive sonar, the frequency spectrum of a sound radiated by underwater moving targets is composed of a broadband nonuniform background noise and narrowband discrete tonals. To detect the tonals, the background noise is estimated and removed. Using the existing algorithms that estimate the background noise, a week tonals are not detected. Because a freuqency line that is formed by tonals which are being extracted continuously is a feture of the target, we are nessesory to efficiently detect the tonals that compose the frequncy line. In this paper, we propose an efficient neural network that can remove automatically the background and detect the even errl tonals, and we extract the frequency line feature on the spectrogram by the proposed algorithm. The experimental results for a ship's radiated sound show a better performance in comparison with the existing TPM algorithm.

There are strong ocean wave interference with big amplitude very low frenqencies are similar to the ship's hydrodynamic signals. To detect ship's hydrodynamic field will be faced various natural hydrodynamic interferences which are radom and the prior knowlege of which are not know. This paper proposes to use the adaptive noise cancelling principle and used the model of adaptive wave canceller to eliminate the ocean wave interfrence and detect the ship's hydrodynamic signals. Computer simulation results shown that signal to noise ratio can be raised from several to ten times. It shows the fact that this mathod can detect the ship's hydrodynamic signals from the strong ocean wave interferences while it is difficult for the old methods.

This paper presents a method of fault detection and fault localization from acoustic noise measurements. In order to detect the presence of noise sources wavelet transform is applied to acoustic signal. In addition, a cross correlation based method is proposed to calculate the exact location of the noise allowing the user to quickly diagnose and resolve the source of the noise. The fault detection system is implemented using two microphones and a computer system. Experimental results show that the system can detect faults due to artifacts accidentally inserted during the manufacturing process and estimate the location of the fault with approximately 1 cm precision.
