When multibands are obtained by splitting the spectra, influence of spectral components in a band over the neighboring band components are appreciable, that reduces the effectiveness of clean speech estimation. To reduce this influence, in the current work clean speech estimation is performed by filtering the noisy speech in the temporal-domain into various ERB-based sub-bands followed by spectral domain speech enhancement in each band using DCT-based MMSE estimator. Further an approach is proposed, to calculate apriori speech presence/absence probability based on apriori SNR. The performance of speech enhancement algorithms are evaluated using objective measures such as, PESQ and composite speech quality measure.","PeriodicalId":352568,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Microwave, Optical and Communication Engineering (ICMOCE)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114769153","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 HEM111 and HEM113 modes have been considered to generate dual mode in cylindrical DRA to yield broadside radiation pattern. To reduce the merging of two DRA modes because of strip fed excitation the DRA radius is slightly increased from calculated value.

Each sensor node has the local computing ability and share information with the predefined one hop neighbors for local diffusion. The performance of the diffusion method depends on the degree of the sensor nodes and which is less for a sparse sensor network, especially for the sensor nodes lying on the edge of the network. Therefore, multi-hop diffusion cooperation is proposed here to improve the estimation accuracy and convergent speed. Here, a sensor node receives information from multi-hop (used two-hop) sensor nodes unlike aggregating from immediate neighbors in the conventional diffusion algorithm. The simulation results show the performance improvement of the proposed scheme over the existing diffusion method.","PeriodicalId":352568,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Microwave, Optical and Communication Engineering (ICMOCE)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121321750","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}

A DWDM system is designed to maximize the datarate-transmission length product. Bandwidth or the datarate of the system is incremented by accommodating more number of channels to be multiplexed by reducing the spacing between the channels. The resulting narrow spacing between carrier wavelengths introduces linear and nonlinear distortions in the communication channel. An inline module is implemented in the optical domain to mitigate the linear and nonlinear distortions considered together. The module design is based on the Fractional Fourier Transform (FRFT). The application of FRFT on the optical signal causes it to transform into an intermediary domain in which the effects of both linear and non-linear distortions combine together. We propose an alternate structure for the FRFT implementation. The proposed structure should retain the original profile of the optical signal after the transformation. The module is tested for the modulation technique of CS-RZ. The results show enhanced performance parameters for the channel with the inline module.","PeriodicalId":352568,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Microwave, Optical and Communication Engineering (ICMOCE)","volume":"159 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115950847","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}
