Periodic noises are unwished and spurious signals that create repetitive pattern on images and decreased the visual quality. Firstly, this paper investigates various methods for reducing the effects of the periodic noise in digital images. Then an adaptive optimum notch filter is proposed. In the proposed method, the regions of noise frequencies are determined by analyzing the spectral of noisy...

filter is one of the main components of embankment dams. by a simple but effective performance, filter protects the dam against erosion and soil scouring in impervious core caused by leakage (piping) and makes it safe. interaction between filter and erodible base soil is a complex phenomenon which is dependent upon several factors, and has challenged researchers for better understanding the fil...

This paper presents the design of Sharpened three stage CIC filter for decimation. The proposed decimation filter has Cascaded-Integrator Comb filter as first stage, Sharpened Cascaded-Integrator Comb filter as second and third stage. The CIC filter at first stage operates at input sampling rate, sharpened second stage operates at lower rate as compared to first stage and sharpened third stage ...

The fast development of wireless communication systems requires more flexible and cost effective radio architectures. A long term goal is the software defined radio, where communication standards are chosen by reconfiguration of hardware. Direct analog to digital conversion of the radio frequency (RF) signal is still unrealistic at present time, due to the high requirements imposed on the analo...

This paper presents a comparative analysis between two current control strategies, constant source power and generalized Fryze current, used in Active Power Filter (APF) applications having three different modulation methods. The Hysteresis Band (HB) and first-order Delta-Sigma Modulation (DSM) as well as the second-order DSM is applied. The power section of the active power filter is viewed as...

against the range-dependent accuracy of the tracking radar measurements including range, elevation and bearing angles, a new hybrid adaptive kalman filter is proposed to enhance the performance of the radar aided strapdown inertial navigation system (ins/radar). this filter involves the concept of residual-based adaptive estimation and adaptive fading kalman filter and tunes dynamically the fil...
