Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMeasurements and Model Calibration of Urban Traffic Noise PollutionN. Al-Mutairi, F. Al-Rukaibi, P. KoushkiProblem statement: The problem of urban traffic noise pollution is universal and in the past few decades it has grown to the point that it has become a major concern for both the public and the policy-makers. Approach: In a comprehensive 18 month research project, traffic-generated noise was monitored at 47 roadway locations in fourteen districts in metropolitan Kuwait in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,622 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Three-Microphone Adaptive Noise Canceller for Minimizing Reverberation and Signal DistortionZayed M. RamadanThis paper introduces an adaptive noise canceller (ANC) to improve the system performance in the presence of signal leakage components. The proposed ANC consists of two adaptive filters and three microphones. The first adaptive filter cancels the signal leakage and the second filter cancels the noise. For best results, a least mean squares adaptive algorithm was also introduced and used … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,089 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDesign of Low Phase Noise SIPC based Complementary LC-QVCO for IEEE 802.11a ApplicationHarikrishnan Ramiah, Tun Zainal Azni ZulkifliThe paper presents the design of a source injection parallel coupled (SIPC) quadrature voltage controlled oscillator (QVCO), realized in a complementary architecture, which is usually preferred in low-power applications as it exploits ≈50% bias current reduction with double efficiency compared to the structure with single coupled, when operating in the current-limited regime. A stacked spiral inductor exhibiting a Q factor … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFLANN Detector Based Filtering of Images Corrupted by Impulse NoiseBanshidhar Majhi, Mowafak FathiWe present a novel non-linear scheme for image restoration based on neuro-detector using Functional Link Artificial Neural Network (FLANN) followed by an improved spatial filter. The method is applied to images corrupted by impulse noise with varying strengths and different noise probability. The neural detector is based on the concept of training or learning by examples. When trained properly, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,237 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDevelopment of Ecological Criteria of Noise Control With Application of AbsorbentsM. A. Al-NawaflehThe operation conditions of the industrial equipment, acoustic parameters essentially depend on type of the sound field (free, diffuse or mixed). Besides the effect of the noise control of the machine itself, the field type also important, which in turn depends on the degree and quality of acoustic preparation of the workshop. The criteria is an estimation of applicability broadband … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2005 · 6,805 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Fully Integrated Dual-Band Low Noise Amplifier for IEEE 802.11 and Hiper LAN ApplicationMow Shouxian, Ma Jianguo, Yeo Kiat Seng, Do Manh AnhA fully-integrated dual-band Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), which can be used for IEEE 802.11 and Hiper LAN applications, was investigated in this paper. The proposed LAN was implemented entirely pm a single chip based on a standard 0.18 μm 1P6M CMOS process. It draws 13 mA current from a 1.5-V voltage supply and achieves power gains of 17 and 10 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 7,288 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Noises on Fujisaki’s Model of Fundamental Frequency Contours for Thai DialectsSuphattharachai Chomphan, Chutarat ChompunthProblem statement: Modeling of fundamental frequency (F0) contour plays an important role on the natural speech processing, since F0 is an important speech feature defining the human speech prosody. In Thai, there are four main dialects spoken by Thai people residing in four core region including central, north, northeast and south regions. Environmental noises are also plays an important role … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 25 Aug 2012 · 6,981 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Environmental Noises on Fundamental Frequency Contours of Thai Expressive SpeechSuphattharachai Chomphan, Chutarat ChompunthProblem statement: The expressive speech of Thai had been studied for a short period of time. An important feature of speech was fundamental frequency (F0) which defines the human speech prosody. It could be used to distinguish the difference between several types of expressive speech. The environmental noises affect the F0 contour for Thai dialects as concluded in the previous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 28 Jun 2012 · 6,907 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleConfidence Intervals for Signal to Noise Ratio of a Poisson DistributionFlorence George, B.M. Golam KibriaThe Poisson distribution is one of the most useful probability distributions to fit rare event data. Confidence interval for the SNR is an important issue among the researchers in image processing. This study considers several confidence intervals for the SNR of a Poisson distribution. Different confidence intervals available in literature are reviewed and compared based on the coverage probability and … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 19 Sep 2012 · 13,909 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalytical Study of Signal-to-Noise Ratio for Visible Light Communication by Using Single SourceMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Nurain Izzati Shuhaimi, Luqman Al-Hakim Azizan, Mazen Radhe HassanProblem statement: In this study, optical wireless communication system using visible light is studied for indoor application. Approach: The process started with the calculation on performance of single source white LED where received power, channel DC gain and quality of data transmission (SNR computation) are identified. Through the simulation results, the SNR performance is directly proportional to angle of incident … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 2 Nov 2011 · 7,479 accessesView PDFCite
