Frequency Properties of Two-Dimensional Median Windows - Phase and Amplitude Responses
نویسنده
چکیده
The use of medians as filtering windows in digital signal processing is known since many years and applied especially when linear filters could not be used, because of specific character of disturbances which are to be removed. This is the case, if, for instance, impulsive disturbances, having very wide spectra, are observed, and linear filters are not suitable for their elimination. Median procedures, including also weighted medians, are particularly effective in such filtering procedures. According to the applied algorithm, disturbed signal samples are eliminated and replaced by some values resulting from neighbouring nondisturbed samples [2]. In spite of the nonlinear character medians can be characterized in the frequency domain if a certain "harmonic linearization" is done. An analysis of such median characteristics in onedimensional case was given in [1, 4]. This idea is now extended to two-dimensional (2D) signals and the frequency properties (amplitude and phase) of the most popular 2D median filtering procedures are examined.

In this study, the numerical analysis of turbulent flow and heat transfer of double pulsating impinging jets on a flat surface has been investigated. The unsteady two-dimensional numerical solution for two similar and dissimilar jets was performed using the RNG k-ε model. The results showed that the RNG k-ε model has more satisfactory predictions of the Nusselt number distribution. Comparisons ...
متن کاملTranslation Invariant Approach for Measuring Similarity of Signals
In many signal processing applications, an appropriate measure to compare two signals plays a fundamental role in both implementing the algorithm and evaluating its performance. Several techniques have been introduced in literature as similarity measures. However, the existing measures are often either impractical for some applications or they have unsatisfactory results in some other applicati...

In this paper, the phase properties of waves reflected from one-dimensional double-periodic quasi-crystals consisting of single-negative materials are investigated using transfer matrix method. It is observed that, by increasing the double-periodic generation number, a large omnidirectional band gap is created in the single-nagative frequency range. We limit our studies to the frequency range o...
