Instantaneous frequency of doppler signals is used to get the information of the relative velocity and the miss distance between a missile and a corresponding target. In this paper, we have performed time-frequency analysis and instantaneous frequency estimation with Short Time Fourier Transform(STFT), Wigner Ville Distribution(WVD) and Continuous Wavelet Transform(CWT) about the doppler signals generated by moving targets. Performance evaluation was performed using simulated doppler signals generated by a single moving target and two moving targets. From the results of the time-frequency analysis, we found that WVD method was the most efficient instantaneous frequency estimator among the three methods. But in case of two moving targets, WVD method got cross talks and CWT method got oscillation when two doppler frequencies were close to each other.

There are three types of noise generated inside the vehicle: BSR (Buzz, Squeak, Rattle). In this paper, we propose a classifier that automatically classifies automotive BSR noise by using features extracted from deep convolutional neural networks. In the preprocessing process, the features of above three noises are represented as noise-map using STFT (Short-time Fourier Transform) algorithm. In order to cope with the problem that the position of the actual noise is unknown in the part of the generated noise map, the noise map is divided using the sliding window method. In this paper, internal parameter of the deep convolutional neural networks is visualized using the t-SNE (t-Stochastic Neighbor Embedding) algorithm, and the misclassified data is analyzed in a qualitative way. In order to analyze the classified data, the similarity of the noise type was quantified by SSIM (Structural Similarity Index) value, and it was found that the retractor tremble sound is most similar to the normal travel sound. The classifier of the proposed method compared with other classifiers of machine learning method recorded the highest classification accuracy (99.15 %).

Advanced signal processing techniques have been long introduced and widely used in structural health monitoring (SHM) and nondestructive evaluation (NDE). In our research, we applied several signal processing approaches for our embedded ultrasonic structural radar (EUSR) system to obtain improved damage detection results. The EUSR algorithm was developed to detect defects within a large area of a thin-plate specimen using a piezoelectric wafer active sensor (PWAS) array. In the EUSR, the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) was first applied for signal de-noising. Secondly, after constructing the EUSR data, the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) and continuous wavelet transform (CWT) were used for the time-frequency analysis. Then the results were compared thereafter. We eventually chose continuous wavelet transform to filter out from the original signal the component with the excitation signal's frequency. Third, cross correlation method and Hilbert transform were applied to A-scan signals to extract the time of flight (TOF) of the wave packets from the crack. Finally, the Hilbert transform was again applied to the EUSR data to extract the envelopes for final inspection result visualization. The EUSR system was implemented in LabVIEW. Several laboratory experiments have been conducted and have verified that, with the advanced signal processing approaches, the EUSR has enhanced damage detection ability.

This study was carried out fusion-welded butt joints in SWS 490A high strength steel subjected to tensile test that load-deflection curve. The windowed or short-time Fourier transform(WFT or STFT) makes possible for the analysis of non-stationary or transient signals into a joint time-frequency domain and the wavelet transform(WT) is used to decompose the acoustic emission(AE) signal into various discrete series of sequences over different frequency bands. In this paper, for acoustic emission signal analysis to use a continuous wavelet transform, in which the Gabor wavelet base on a Gaussian window function is applied to the time-frequency domain. A wavelet transform is demonstrated and the plots are very powerful in the recognition of the acoustic emission features. As a result, the technique of acoustic emission is ideally suited to study variables which control time and stress dependent fracture or damage process in metallic materials.

The Hilbert Huang Transform (HHT) technigue with Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is one of the time-frequency domain analysis methods and it has several advantages such that analyzing non-stationary and nonlinear signal is possible. However, there are shortcomings in detecting near-range of frequencies and added noise signals. In this paper, to analyze characteristics of each method, HHT and Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) effective in dealing with stationary signals are compared. And with thermoacoustic instabilities signals from a Rijke tube test, HHT and the improved HHT with Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD) are compared. The results show that the improved HHT is more appropriate than the original HHT due to the relative insensitivity to noise. Therefore it will result in more accurate analysis.

This paper is focused on the analysis of the noise and vibration measured near the wheelset of the high-speed trains using a time-varying frequency transform as a preliminary research of running monitoring. Due to the non-stationary characteristics, it is necessary to examine noise and vibration of the train with time-varying frequency transforms. In this paper, the short-time Fourier transform method is utilized - the stored data is localized by modulating with a window function, and Fourier transform is taken to each localized data. For the examination, the non-stationary noise and vibration of the high-speed train's wheelset are measured by using some microphones and accelerometers, and those signals are stored in a on-board data acquisition system. The non-stationary random signal analyses with the short-time Fourier transform are performed, and the result are classified as follows; auto-spectral density, cross-spectral density, frequency response, and coherence functions. From those functions, it is possible to observe the frequency characteristics of sleepers, switchers, tunnels, and steel bridges. Also, some distinct peaks, which are not dependent upon the train's speed, are identified from the results.

For the rapid and accurate warning, the system requires not only the sufficient number of seismometers but also the appropriate detection technique of sensor data. Instead of installing new seismometers, on-board accelerometers of the train could be utilized as alternatives. However, the data from on-board accelerometers includes train vibrations and the response of embankment site by earthquake, which are different from earthquakes measured from the seismometer. This study suggests signal analysis technique to detect earthquake from the on-board accelerometer data. The virtual on-board accelerometer data including the response of embankment site, obtained from site response analysis method, has been constructed. The constructed data has been analyzed using short time Fourier transform (STFT) and wavelet transform (WT). STFT method provides better performance to detect long-period earthquake whereas WT method is more available to detect short-period earthquake.

This paper is concerned wi th the generation of the Lamb waves in a non­ferromagnetic plate by a recently-developed orientation-adjustable patch-type magnetostrictive transducer (OPMT) and the dispersion analysis from the measured Lamb waves. OPMT is capable of adjusting wave-propagation orientation only with a single installation on a plate. The mechanics behind the wave generation and measurement by the magnetostrictive phenomenon, the working principle of OPMT is explained and the actual generation and measurement of the Lamb waves were conducted in a 3 mm-thick aluminum plate. For the accurate analysis of the dispersion characteristics of the measured Lamb waves, a modified version of the short-time Fourier transform, known as the dispersion-based short-time Fourier transform, was employed. The results presented in this work would serve as the underlying research for an advanced non-destructive evaluation based on ultrasonic waves.

Recently as voice authentication function is installed in the system, it is becoming more important to accurately authenticate speakers. Accordingly, a model for verifying speakers in various ways has been suggested. In this paper, we propose a new method for verifying speaker verification using a Short-time Fourier Transform(STFT). Unlike the existing Mel-Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients(MFCC) extraction method, we used window function with overlap parameter of around 66.1%. In this case, the speech characteristics of the speaker with the temporal characteristics are studied using a deep running model called RNN (Recurrent Neural Network) with LSTM cell. The accuracy of proposed model is around 92.8% and approximately 5.5% higher than that of the existing speaker certification model.
