전주월드컵 경기장은 Fully Digital sidelobe-free array 방식의 음향시스템을 도입한 유일한 경기장으로서 대규모 경기장에 Line Array type의 스피커를 사용한 최초의 예가 된다. 현장음향실험을 통하여 경기장의 주요 음향 파라미터인 음압레벨(SPL), 잔향시간(RT), 음성명료도(D50), 음성이해도(RASTI) 등을 측정함으로 전주월드컵 경기장의 음향시스템의 특성과 종합적인 음향성능을 알아보고자 한다. 주음원(Messenger)만 사용하여 실험한 결과 음압레벨(SPL)은 관중석의 객석간 위치별 음압레벨 표준편차가 약 2.78dB로 나타났다. 이 값은 당초의 음압레벨분포편차의 목표치인 ${\pm}3dB$의 범위 이내로 나타났다. 또한 최대음압레벨은 평균 100.1dB로 목표치인 96dB을 초과하는 것으로 나타났다. 잔향시간(RT)은 공석시 전체 관중석 평균 2.94초로 나타났으며, 1000Hz에서의 평균 잔향시간은 2.58초로 나타났다. 잔향시간은 실제 경기장의 사용 시 약 0.3-0.4초의 감소가 발생되리라 판단된다. 음성명료도(D50)는 전체 관중석 평균 $56.2\%$로 매우 양호한 상태로 나타났고 음성이해도(RASTI)는 전체 관중석 평균 0.63으로 목표치인 0.5를 상회하는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 현장음향실험 결과를 분석한 결과 전주월드컵 경기장의 음향성공은 음향설계 요건을 만족하는 것으로 나타났고 야외 경기장 같은 대형공간에서의 음향시스템에 있어서 Fully Digital sidelobe-free array 방식의 음향시스템의 적용가능성을 보여주고 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper proposes a hydrophone array design optimization technique for cavitation tunnel noise measurements. The optimization technique comprises of design parameters, an objective function and an optimization algorithm. The design parameters are defined for circular, spiral and multi-spiral arrays. The objective function is defined so as to consider the mainlobe beamwidth and the maximum sidelobe level simultaneously. A global optimization scheme is applied to the array design using very fast simulated reannealing (VFSR). After applying the optimization technique to arrays respectively, the peak sidelobe level and the mainlobe beamwidth of optimum arrays are analyzed. Finally the array patterns considering multiple reflections in the cavitation tunnel are evaluated to validate the proposed method.

The most widely used radar pulse compression technique is correlation processing using Barker code. This technique enhances detection sensitivity but, unfortunately, suffers from the addition of range sidelobes which sometimes will degrade the performance of radar systems. In this paper, our proposed optimal algorithm eliminates the sidelobes at the cost of additional processing and is evaluated in the presence of Doppler shift. We then propose optimal codes with regard to the proposed algorithm and the performance is compared against the traditional correlation processing with Barker codes. The proposed processing using optimal codes will be shown to be superior over the traditional processing in the presence of Doppler shift.

In this paper. we Propose a frequency domain beamforming algorithm composed of inverse-filtering stages followed by a MVDR (Minimum-Variance Distortionless Response) beamformer or a GSC (Generalized Sidelobe Canceller). The proposed method is shown to require less complexity than the conventional RTF-MVDR and TF-GSC. respectively, and it is shown that the Proposed method is equivalent to the conventional RTF-MVDR and TF-GSC in optimum solution. In order to evaluate the performance of the Proposed method. speech recognition experiments are performed using the speech database recorded in a car. The Proposed method shows equal or slightly degraded Performance comparing to the conventional methods in terms of the speech recognition rate.

This paper concerns a least square approach to optimizing a thinned antenna array with respect to antenna spacing to improve the sidelobe performance. A least square method based on a modified version of the modified perturbation method is proposed to efficiently synthesize an optimum pattern in a thinned array. It is demonstrated that the array performance improves with the proposed method, compared with the conventional method.

In this paper we propose a new efficient generalized sidelobe canceller(GSC) algorithm, using the efficient frequency domain LMS algorithm, which has much less weights to update. We only update part of all the weights according to magnitude of each frequency bin. So, the new proposed GSC algorithm, which is called censored GSC(C-GSC), can greatly reduce the computational complexity.

A very simple and effective peak power reduction scheme for a downlink OFDM-CDMA system is proposed using the relationship between peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) and out-of-phase autocorrelation. Since power spectrum and autocorrelation function are Fourier transform pair, the PAPR property of the sequences can be estimated by the out-of-phase autocorrelation function of the spreading sequences. Thus, by scrambling the spread data in the frequency domain, we can reduce the sidelobe energy of autocorrelation, and at last, suppress PAPR in the proposed OFDM-CDMA system.

This paper proposes a new GSC (Generalized Sidelobe Canceller) structure, called HLMS-GSC. Compared to Griffiths and Jim's GSC structure, the number of complex multiplication required is reduced to one half. The simulation results show that the minimum mean square errors and performance of nulling jammers by using HLMS-GSC are almost the same compared to Griffiths and Jim's GSC, although the complexity is reduced significantly. As a result, the proposed adaptive beamformer is good for real time implementation, since it has low complexity compared to previous GSC structures.
