Combustions have to be observed for controling efficiency and pollution as well as protecting against knock and can be affected, e.g. by controling the angle of ignition. We first model pressure signals by nonstationary stochastic processes characterized by the compression cycle and a stochastic resonance model. Vibration signals are modeled as time-variant filtered versions of pressure signals superimposed by noise. Wigner-Ville time-frequency estimates applied to measured data that average over many combustion cycles provide evidence of the models. Because only vibration signals can be easily measured in cars, we show that pressure signals can be reconstructed by time-variant filtering of vibration signals. Enhanced knock detectors are discussed which test resonance powers estimated from vibration signals via non-equidistant sampling. Finally, we report on a signal-processor based test-bed diagnosis-system for real-time operation.","PeriodicalId":151571,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Seventh SP Workshop on Statistical Signal and Array Processing","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125175686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find that the effect of filtering is small. The tail portion of the filter response provides little information about signal parameters. The initial transient portion of the signal pulse provides important information about time of arrival.

Adaptive algorithms such as LMS, recursive LS, or exponentially weighted LS can be used to update the coefficients of the adaptive filter. The major problem associated with an adaptive eye artifact canceler is found to be the unwanted correlations between the desired and reference signals. This is especially problematic when slow cognitive potentials or slow head or body movement artifacts coexist with eye artifacts in the recorded EEG. Undesired correlations can result in over-correction of ocular artifacts if a standard adaptive filter is used. We tackle this problem by taking into account a priori information regarding the ocular artifacts, that is, the spatietemporal statistics of the transmission coefficients. This strategy yields an adaptive artifact canceler combined with leakage and signal subspace enhancement.","PeriodicalId":151571,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Seventh SP Workshop on Statistical Signal and Array Processing","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134086890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The interference may arise from multipath propagation or from the multiple users accessing the system. In general, the detection problem can be formulated as a data classification problem. According to the classical detection theory, the optimal detector is provided by the Bayes hypothesis testing [l]. In practice, the statistical properties of the received data, such as the distribution function and the number of incoming signals, are unknown a priori. I t is of significant interest to investigate other non-statistical approaches. Traditionally, linear adaptive filters based on the least mean squares (LMS) and the recursive least squares (RLS) algorithms [2] are employed to combat the degradation due to the interference. They are suboptimal because they only generate hyperplanar decision boundaries in the observation space. Recently, the radial basis function (RBF) network has received a considerable amount of attention. It has the universal approximation ability [3] to construct robust non-linear decision boundaries. Besides, its massive parallelism and fast training time make it desirable for solving complicated tasks. In general, signals arrive at the receiver not only with different time delays, but also from different spatial angles. This spatial information cannot be exploited with a single antenna receiver, and is important in handling the scenarios where the h o m i n g signals are not time-delayed by multiples of a symbol duration. Recently, antenna arrays have attracted much attention in the framework of spatial diversity combining. In this paper, the RBF network is incorporated into an array receiver to solve the detection problem in the spatial domain. The RBF network is first reviewed. Employing the Bayes criterion as a benchmark, a decision-boundary comparison is then performed among the array receiving systems based on the RBF network, the LMS and the RLS adaptive filters. After that, simulation results are presented to compare the bit-error-rate (BER) performance of these array systems.","PeriodicalId":151571,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Seventh SP Workshop on Statistical Signal and Array Processing","volume":"228 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114804350","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since our noise model has infinite variance, in order to use a minimum meansquared error (MMSE) criterion, we apply zero memory nonlinearity (ZMNL) to the information-bearing signal, in such a way that the variance of the noise is limited and the inform* tion signal is not distorted. We generalize the class of detectors which are based on a noise estimation-cancellation technique. In particular, by exploiting the past decisions as well as the past received samples, a nonlinear MMSE estimate of the transformed noise is made and subsequently canceled. We optimize the performance of the system with respect to the ZMNL at the input of the receiver. Our objective is to use predictors of the lowest complexity which give satisfactory estimation accuracy. The proposed subop t imd receivers are designed and analyzed in the context of Partial Response Signaling (PRS). The effects of the predictor order, the number of exploited samples and filtering allocation, on the system performance are examined.","PeriodicalId":151571,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Seventh SP Workshop on Statistical Signal and Array Processing","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128501199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
