We have studied the temporal variation in the North-South asymmetry of the sunspot area during the period from 1874 to 2007. Though the 9-year periodicity is commonly reported, shorter periodicities is still under study. We employ the cepstrum analysis method to analyze the noisy power spectrum of the North-South asymmetry. We demonstrate that the cleaned power spectrum shows reduction of the spurious back-ground noise level. Some of short period peaks in the power spectrum disappear after deconvolution. It should be, however, pointed out that power spectrum might look less noisy because of a filtering process during deconvolution. We conclude by pointing out that a more sophisticate filtering algorithm is required to produce a precise and reliable periodicity estimate.

스펙트럼 차감법은 잡음이 더해진 환경에서의 음성인시기에 널리 사용되는 전처리 방법이지만, 이를 위해서는 잡음의 스펙트럼을 잘 추정할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 잡음 스펙트럼의 추정방법으로 히스토그램 처리방법을 사용한다. 이 방법은 음성/비음성 구간의 구분을 할 필요가 없으며 서서히 변화하는 잡음의 스펙트럼도 추정할 수 있다는 점에서 여타의 잡음 추정방법에 비해 장점을 지닌다. 다양한 SNR 조건하에서 유색 가우시안 잡음 및 실제 자동차 소음을 부가시킨 음성에 대해 화자독립 고립단어 인식 실험을 수행한 결과, 히스토그램 처리방법에 기반을 둔 스펙트럼 차감법의 인식성능이 초기 비음성구간의 스펙트럼 평균을 이용한 기존의 잡음 스펙트럼 추정방법에 비해 우수한 성능을 나타내었다.

Purpose: In this study, we investigated the relationship between the noise characteristics and the number of projected images in tomosynthesis using a digital phantom. Methods: The digital phantom consisted of a columnar phantom in the center of the image and a spherical phantom with a diameter of 80 pixels. A virtual scan was performed, and 128 projected images (Tomo_w/o) of the phantoms were obtained. The image noise according to the Poisson distribution was added to the projected images (Tomo_×1). Furthermore, another projected image with additional noise was prepared (Tomo_×1/2). For each dataset, we created datasets with 64 (half) and 32 (quarter) projections by removing the even-numbered images twice from the 128 (fully) projected images. Tomosynthesis images were reconstructed by filtered back projection (FBP). The modulation transfer function (MTF) was estimated using the sphere method, and the noise power spectrum (NPS) was estimated using the two-dimensional Fourier transform method. Results: The MTFs did not change between datasets, and the NPSs improved as the number of projected images increased. The noise characteristics of the Tomo_×1_half images were the same as those of the Tomo_×1/2_full. Conclusions: To achieve a reduction in the patient dose in tomosynthesis acquisition, we recommend reducing the number of projected images rather than reducing the dose per projection.

This paper investigates the modal acoustic power by a cascade of flat-plate airfoils interacting with homogeneous, isotropic turbulence. Basic formulation for the acoustic power upstream and downstream is based on the analytical theory of Smith and its generalization due to Cheong et al. The acoustic power spectrum has been expressed as the sum of cut-on acoustic modes, whose modal power is the product of three terms: a turbulence series, an upstream or downstream power factor and an upstream or downstream acoustic response function. The effect of these terms in the modal acoustic power has been examined. For isotropic turbulence gust, the turbulent series are only reducing factor of the modal acoustic power. The power factor tends to reduce the modal acoustic power in the upstream direction, although the power factor is liable to increase the modal acoustic power in the downstream direction. The modes close to cut-off are decreasing strongly, especially in the downstream direction. Therefore the modes close to cut-off don't contribute highly to the radiated acoustic power in the downstream direction, although the modal acoustic pressure is high for these modes.

The noise is major obstacle element in power line communication. However, because power supply networks are not designed for communication, there are various noise sources. Accordingly, a study of characteristic and cause of noise generated in low voltage transformer is important for outdoor power line communication. In this paper, we measure low voltage transformer noise in 1-30MHz using spectrum analyzer. We analyze cause and pattern of noise considering partial discharge.

The existence of peroodic impulse noises in distribution line carrier (DLC) communication system is known to be the most serious obstacle for improving DLC communication quality in reliability and capacity. From the spectral points, impulse noises can be divided into baseband type and modulation type the noise width of whichs are much different each other. With each nose type, this study presents the basic characteristics in relation to what they originate from and how their spectrum properties are revealed. The baseband type impulse noise is normally caused from thyristor circuit running with low switching speed and the modulation type noise from the circuit of switching power supply. The base wave of modulation noise is shown to be the pulsuatic charging current to primary condenser in switching power circuit. The study result indicates also that placing the DLC carrier frequency away the band predominated by modulated noise especially from RCC type switching power circuit is very important in DLC design.

Image restoration technique using dual sensor is presented in this paper. Digital Radiography image (1024xlO24) is obtained by conventional resolution sensor. We also obtain local DR image data by high resolution sensor. Two dimensional maximum entropy power spectrum estimation (2-D ME PSE) is applied to low resolution image and high resolution image for the purpose of the power spectrum estimation of each image. A class of linear algebraic restoration filter, parametric projection filter (PPF), is derived from the power spectrums of each image. It is shown that the noise energy may be considerably reduced through the PPF.

A comparative study of wind speed spectrum based on the in-situ observation at the SeoHae bridge site is conducted. Wind speed and directions of the SeoHae bridge site is measured and analyzed. Mean wind speed and turbulence intensity are estimated. The power spectral density function of the fluctuating component of the wind velocity is estimated. Several wind spectrum models of gust wind turbulence are compared and discussed based on the estimated wind spectrum.
