The use of SDR system in which its components are implemented by means of software is to reduce cost and complexity in the design and implementation. Whilst the signal processing of FMCW radar is carried out using Matlab R® with triangular linear frequency modulation (LFM) waveform to obtain the target distance and the target relative speed for stationary and moving target, respectively. From the result, it is shown that the radar is successfully implemented using GNU radio-based SDR with the capability in distance target detection of 14.79km for a moving target away from the radar with the relative speed of 50m/s.","PeriodicalId":238787,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Symposium on Intelligent Signal Processing and Communication Systems (ISPACS)","volume":"53 27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129451896","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}

This method first sets the contrast of luminance between adjacent regions to be large in order to make the image understandable only by the luminance, and then assign fine color combination in order to make the image satisfactory to people with normal sight. In designing the color, samples of well-known fine color combinations are adopted. Here, the user can select his/her favorite color and reflect it to the design by adopting color combinations containing the color. In applying the color combination, the color information of each color in the combination is assigned to the region in the image considering the luminance and the area of the region, so that the user's taste to colors can be reflected adequately. Both the luminance and the color information are set at preferable values by interactive evolutionary computing (IEC) which can design the system considering the user's subjective criteria. Computer simulations verify the high performance of this system.","PeriodicalId":238787,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Symposium on Intelligent Signal Processing and Communication Systems (ISPACS)","volume":"326 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122258517","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}

This design problem is formulated as a combinatorial optimization problem. It requires high computation time to obtain an optimal solution. Instead, several heuristic approaches have been developed for solving this problem in a reasonable computation time. ACO is one of the promising approaches and is appropriate for solving the combinatorial optimization problem. Therefore, we proposed ACO approach for design of CSD coefficient FIR filters. In the design examples, our method is compared with the other heuristic approaches and it is shown that our method is effective for the design of CSD coefficient FIR filters.

However, since the number of pilot symbol is proportionally depending on the number of transmit antenna, the total transmission rate of massive MIMO would be degraded. To solve this problem, channel estimation by virtual pilot signal (VPS) with a few pilot signals has been proposed. However, since the conventional method iteratively identifies the channel state information (CSI), the complexity is considerable work. Then again, time-frequency interferometry (TFI)-OFDM has been proposed. This method can achieve a good BER performance with a few pilot symbols. In this paper, we propose a novel channel compensation based on VPS and TFI for massive MIMO without increasing the system complexity. The proposed scheme has a low complexity, with improving BER performance to compared with the conventional method using linear interpolation and FFT/IFFT after specific operations. From the simulation results, the proposed scheme can improve BER performance to compared with the conventional method in 4 × 4 and 8 × 8MIMO systems.","PeriodicalId":238787,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Symposium on Intelligent Signal Processing and Communication Systems (ISPACS)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121593852","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}

In other words, regardless of the number of images to be added, the cut-off frequency of the MTF had a substantially the same value.

Hence, moving object detection in the compressed video stream is a technically challenging task. In this work, we propose a novel moving object detection algorithm using frame sub-sampling method in the state-of-the-art HEVC video coding standard. Specifically, the number of frames is reduced by means of (temporal) sub-sampling. The frames are re-encoded using HEVC with the same environmental setting to amplify the motion of the moving objects. Sub-sampling effectively increases the motion intensity of the objects, which can be the significant cue for detecting moving object while motions in the background still remain small. Motion vectors and INTRA coding units of moving object obtained via frame sub-sampling and re-encoding are selectively utilized to separate the background and moving objects in the video. The segmented results are refined and compared with the result without performing frame sub-sampling. Results show that the sub-sampling method achieves higher accuracy, with an improvement greater than 0.35 in terms of F-measure.","PeriodicalId":238787,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Symposium on Intelligent Signal Processing and Communication Systems (ISPACS)","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133732121","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}

In this paper, a Six-Port microwave interferometer is presented and used to detect the current heart rate of a person-under-test. An intelligent signal processing routing is proposed that avoids the fast Fourier transform (FFT) due to the implicated longsome observation window and operates directly in the time domain instead.

TBCC is a method applied in conventional convolutional code by replacing a fixed zero-tail with tail-biting data constrains to achieve a better coding efficiency. This modification makes the decoding process becomes much more complex. Due to impracticality of the optimum decoding algorithm such as brute force, recently some suboptimum algorithms have been developed but it still leaves a large amount of computation due to the iterative nature wherein the number of iterations depends on the received codeword causes inefficient system for implementation, especially for real time applications. In this paper we offer a new algorithm that is specific to low cost hardware implementation. Low cost criteria are addressed to minimum amount of computation for each decoding process. In addition to causing smaller area consumption, the lack of computing process will also make decoding processing time becomes faster. This algorithm that we call reverse trellis algorithm also offers a fixed amount of computation regardless to the received codeword, thus will not require extra memory consumption as it being on an implementation. Taking a case study on TBCC configuration for LTE, proposed algorithm requires 5712 adding operations and 3008 inverting operations. A significant decrease compared to 286736, adding 143360 inverting for Brute Force and 45079976738816 adding 1099511627776 inverting for all possible fixed tail ML decoder.
