In this paper, a new method for determining the number of coherent/correlated signals in the presence of colored noise is proposed which is based on the Eigen Increment Threshold (EIT) method. First, we present a new approach which combines EIT criterion and eigenvalue correction. The simulation results show that the new method estimates the number of noncoherent signals in the presence of colo...

The noise signal does not affect uniformly the speech signal over the whole spectrum isn the case of colored noise. In order to deal with speech improvement in such situations a new spectral subtraction algorithm is proposed for reducing colored noise from noise corrupted speech. The spectrum is divided into frequency sub-bands based on a nonlinear multiband bark scale. For each sub-band, the n...

Several signal subspace techniques have been recently suggested for the extraction of the visual evoked potential signals from brain background colored noise. The majority of these techniques assume the background noise as white, and for colored noise, it is suggested to be whitened, without further elaboration on how this might be done. In this paper, we investigate the whitening capabilities ...

The problem of frequency estimation of a single sinusoid observed in colored noise is addressed. Our estimator is based on the operation of the sinusoidal digital phase-locked loop (SDPLL) which carries the frequency information in its phase error after the noisy sinusoid has been acquired by the SDPLL. We show by computer simulations that this frequency estimator beats the Cramer-Rao bound (CR...

A colored-noise Kalman filter is designed to diminish the error effects caused by sensors placed on vibrating structures. This paper deals with sensors that are used to estimate position, attitude or both. Here we focus on a vision-based system, which uses a set of lightemitting diode beacons with a focal plane detector to determine line-of-sight measurements. Estimation of both position and at...

The effects of additive correlated noise, which is composed of common Gaussian white noise and local Gaussian colored noise, on a square lattice network locally modelled by the Rulkov map are studied. We focus on the ability of noise to induce pattern formation in a resonant manner. It is shown that local Gaussian colored noise is able to induce pattern formation, which is more coherent at some...

The separation of the deformations and measurement noise of GPS coordinate time series and accuracy improvement of GPS real-time coordinates are major aspects of the thesis. In order to reduce the influence of the colored noise in the GPS position time series, three different methods have been compared: the Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter, the Kalman filter model, and the sequential algori...
