An LWD acoustic wave can move the excess charge in the electric double layer along the borehole wall to generate a streaming electric field. This thesis is an experimental and theoretical investigation of the electric field induced by the multipole LWD acoustic wave. The main goal of this thesis is to understand the mechanism in the seismoelectric conversion under the LWD geometry and prove the absence of the tool mode in the LWD-acoustic-wave induced electric signals. In this experimental study, we measured the seismoelectric signals excited by an acoustic multipole source in the scaled logging-while-drilling model. We put the scaled tool in a sandstone borehole to perform LWD seismoelectric and acoustic measurements. Monopole and dipole acoustic and the induced electric signals were recorded separately under exactly the same settings. The recorded acoustic and seismoelectric signals were analyzed in both time and frequency domains using a semblance method. We found no tool mode components in the electric signals by examining both the waveforms and the time and frequency domain semblances.
(cont.) The underlying mechanism is the electric double layer (EDL) at the steel water interface is much weaker than the one at the formation water interface. Thus, in the LWD seismoelectric signal, there should be no component with an apparent velocity of tool mode. Since only formation acoustic modes have their corresponding components in the electric signal, we calculated the coherence of the two kinds of signals in the frequency domain. By applying the coherence curve to filter the acoustic signals, we can eliminate the tool modes and pick out the formation acoustic modes. In the theoretical study, we developed a Pride-theory-based model for the LWD-acoustic-wave induced electric field. The electric field strength is calculated at the electrode positions along the borehole wall, analogous to what was done in the experiment. The electric boundary conditions, which are the continuity of the electric field at the borehole wall and disappearance at the LWD tool surface, reveal the underlying mechanism in the LWD seismoelectric conversion which is also the basis of our lab experiment. The absence of the tool modes in the synthetic waveforms of the electric field coincides with what we have observed in the experimental study.
(cont.) Both the experiment and the theoretical results confirm that measuring the seismoelectric signal generated by an acoustic multipole source during the LWD process can be an effective way to eliminate the tool wave contamination on the LWD acoustic measurements. This thesis research shows that seismoelectric logging-while-drilling may be a potential new method in formation property evaluation.

Full textAlstom ville undersöka möjligheten att anpassa sin lysdiodsteknik för dvärgsignaler i tågtrafiken. Lysdiodstekniken använder 50V men Alstom vill anpassa den för 12V. Lysdiodtekniken är strömsnål och behöver anpassas för befintliga signalställverk genom att dra en högre ström. Detta innebar att möjligheten för reaktiv kompensering undersöktes för att få en låg värmeutvecklingen i dvärgsignalen. I uppsatsen presenteras ett par möjliga lösningar. En av lösningarna för spänningen är en step-up omvandlare för att nyttja 50Vs enheten. Det gjordes också en genomgång av kondensatorer för att nyttjas i reaktivkompensering för att öka strömförbrukningen. En av lösningarna blev då ett kondensatorbatteri. Det kunde konstateras med matematisk simulering att step-up omvandlare och ett kondensatorbatteri kan användas för att anpassa kretsen dock måste vissa modifieringar utföras.
Ferreira, Susana Catarina da Costa. "Study of the epigenetic signals in the human genome." Master's thesis, Universidade de Aveiro, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/10773/16568.
Full textEpigenetics can be defined as changes in the genome that are inherited during cell division, however without direct modify the DNA sequence. These genomic changes are supported by three major epigenetic mechanisms: DNA methylation, histone modification and small RNAs. Different epigenetic marks function by regulating gene transcription, because when these processes are altered, this triggers various diseases such as cancer. Thus, one main objective was to study the epigenetics signals in the human genome, meaning, whether there is dependence observed between the context and the occurrence of epigenomic marking. For this purpose we used histone epigenomes available in the NIH Roadmap Epigenomics Mapping Consortium database that contains various types of cells and various types of tissues. The present study employed different statistical methodologies, namely, statistical tests, effect size measures, residue analysis and hierarchical classification. With this analysis, we compared genomic contexts of epigenetic marking among chromosomes and among epigenomes. Complementing the analysis with a control scenario, without marking and factoring the CG content. As a result of this study, it was possible to identify one dependency between the context and the occurrence of epigenetic marking and we were able to identify specific genomic contexts in histone modifications.
A epigenética pode ser definida pela ocorrência de modificações no genoma, que são herdadas durante a divisão celular, não havendo no entanto modificações directas na sequência do DNA. Estas modificações genómicas são apoiadas em três grandes mecanismos epigenéticos: metilação do DNA, modificação de histonas e pequenos RNAs. Estas diferentes marcas epigenéticas podem ter como função regular a transcrição genética, pois quando existe algum tipo de alteração nestes processos, pode desencadear-se em diversas patologias como o cancro. Assim, o objectivo principal deste trabalho é estudar os sinais epigenéticos no genoma humano, ou seja, observar se existe dependência entre o contexto e a ocorrência da marcação epigenómica. Para esse efeito foram utilizados os epigenomas das histonas disponíveis na base de dados do NIH Roadmap Epigenomics Mapping Consortium que contêm vários tipos de células e vários tipos de tecidos. No presente estudo são empregues diferentes metodologias estatísticas, nomeadamente testes estatísticos, medidas do tamanho do efeito, análise de resíduos e classificação hierárquica. Com esta análise, comparam-se contextos genómicos da marcação epigenética entre cromossomas e entre epigenomas. Complementando a análise com um cenário de controlo, sem marcação e factorizando pelo teor de CG. Foi possível identificar uma dependência entre o contexto e a ocorrência de marcação epigenética, sendo possível identificar contextos genómicos específicos para as modificações das histonas.

O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir a distorção do fluxo de raios gama de altas energias (250 GeV ¿ 25 TeV) devido a processos de atenuação desde a fonte até sua chegada na Via Lactea. Entre esses processos estão a produção de pares pela interação com a radiação cósmica de fundo, principalmente EBL, e a oscilação de fótons em bosons pseudoescalares leves, chamados de partículas tipo áxion (ALPs). Também é discutido como será o sinal do fluxo detectado pelo Cherenkov Telescope Array, explicitando suas especificações técnicas e principais melhorias em relação aos detectores atuais, o que nos levará a uma nova geração de telescópios de raios gama.
The purpose of this research is to discuss the distortion of VHE gamma-ray flux (250 GeV - 25 TeV) due to attenuation processes along its path from the source to our galaxy, namely: pair production as a result of the interaction with the background cosmic radiation, especially EBL, and gamma-ray mix with a light pseudoescalar fundamental boson called axion-like particle (ALP). It is also discussed how this signal should appear at Cherenkov Telescope Array, emphasizing its technical specifications and major improvements over current IACTs, which will lead us to a new generation of gamma-ray telescopes.

Full textSpeciation is the process in which reproductive barriers evolve between populations. In this thesis I examine how sexual signals contribute to the maintenance, reinforcement or breakdown of reproductive barriers.
Male pied flycatchers (Ficedula hypoleuca) and collared flycatchers (F. albicollis) differ in song and plumage traits. However, where the two species coexist, several pied flycatchers sing a song resembling the collared flycatcher (mixed song). Mixed song is not caused by introgression from the collared flycatcher but is due to heterospecific copying. Mixed song provokes aggressive behaviour in collared flycatcher males and leads to heterospecific pairing and maladaptive hybridization.
The species differences in song were found to be larger in an old than a young hybrid zone. This was due to a reduction in the frequency of mixed song in the pied flycatcher and a divergence in the song of the collared flycatcher. Apparently, mixed song causes maladaptive hybridization, which over time leads to reinforcement of reproductive barriers by a song divergence.
Previous studies have shown that a character displacement in male plumage traits reinforces species barriers. Hence both plumage and song divergence reduce the incidence of hybridization. The evolution of male plumage traits has been so rapid, or selection has been so strong that rapidly evolving molecular markers are unable to trace it.
Hybrid females mate with a male of the same species as their father. Previous studies have shown that females use male plumage traits controlled by genes linked to the sex chromosomes (the Z) in species recognition. An association between preference and a sex-linked trait through the paternal line may render reinforcement of reproductive barriers more likely.
In conclusion, sexual signals are affected by species interactions that cause breakdown or reinforcement of reproductive barriers.

Tang, Hao. "Pre-signal study at an at-grade intersection with separate right-turn phase." Thesis, Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/96484.
Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Capacity waste happens when right-turn vehicles have right-of-way during a separate right-turn phase and lanes (e.g., through lanes) of the same approach of the intersection cannot discharge vehicles during that green phase. Right-turn traffic consumes the capacity which otherwise could be provided to through traffic movements at an at-grade signalized intersection. Therefore, it is widely considered that it would lower intersection capacity and increase total delay (Lin, Machemehl, Lee & Herman, 1984). The pre-signal strategy proposed in this research is specifically designed to improve this problem. The following aspects of this strategy were studied in this research, - Capacity benefits of this strategy, - Relationships between the capacity and the length of sorting area (the area between the two signals), - Signal timing of both main signal and pre-signal, - Clearance time of the sorting area, - Main signal phasing options - Signal coordination between the main signal and the pre-signal, - Utilization of the sorting area, and - Pre-signal strategy performance in a simulated environment. The results of this study showed that right-turn movement benefits significantly from this pre-signal strategy. For example, right-turn capacity can be doubled if a presignal is installed on one through lane of an approach with one right-turn lane. It was also found, the maximum approach capacity benefit is not affected significantly by the length of the sorting area for a given green period. The optimal green time and the available pre-signal green time for right-turn movement were also derived in this research. Different main signal phasing options were studied and compared. Phasing options which fit the proposed pre-signal strategy were found. Recommended values for right-turn green time of both signals were given based on different lengths of sorting area. The case study, which compared the performance of some critical movements at the intersection with and without the proposed pre-signal system, confirms the results concluded in this study. A potential problem with this strategy when applied at a real intersection is that it may confuse drivers. Drivers need to be educated and will need time to get familiar with this signal control method.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Beskermde regsdraaifases vir verkeer by gelykvlak seinbeheerde kruisings gebruik die kapasiteit wat benut kon word deur deurbewegings. Dit verlaag interseksie kapasiteit en totale oponthoud verhoog. Die voorseinstrategie wat in die navorsing studie voorgestel word is spesifiek ontwikkel om die probleem op te los of te verminder. Die volgende aspekte van die strategie is ondersoek in die navorsingsstudie: - Kapasiteitsvoordele van die strategie. - Die verhouding tussen die kapasiteit en die lengte van die sorteringsarea (die area tussen die twee seine). - Seintydstoedeling van beide die hoofseinfase en die voorseinfase. - Ontruimingstyd van die stoorarea. - Hoofseinfaseopsies. - Seinkoordenasie tussen die hoofsein en die voorsein. - Benutting van die sorterings area, en - Voorseinstrategieprestasie in ‘n gesimuleerde omgewing. Die resultate bewys dat die regsdraaibeweging grootliks bevoordeel word nadat die voorseinstrategie ingestel is. Byvoorbeeld, regsdraaikapasiteit kan verdubbel word as ‘n voorseinfase ingestel word op een van die deurlane tesame met ‘n enkele regsdraailaan. Daar is ook gevind dat die kapasiteit nie grootliks beinvloed word deur die lengte van die stoorgebied nie. Die optimale groentyd en die beskikbare voorsein groen tyd vir die regsdraaibeweging is ook afgelei in die navorsing. Verskillende hoofseinfaseopsies is bestudeer en vergelyk. Faseringsopsies vir die voorgestelde voorseinstrategie is gevind. Voorgestelde waardes vir regsdraaigroentyd van voorseine en hoofseine is bereken om kapasiteit te verbeter, gebasseer op verskillende lengtes van die stoorarea. Die gevallestudie wat die prestasie op ‘n aanloop met en sonder die voogestelde voorseinstrategie vergelyk, bewys resultate wat ooreenstem met die bevindinge in die studie. Die verwagte probleem met die voorseinstrategie, wanneer dit ingestel word by ‘n werklike interseksie, is verwarring van die bestuurders. Bestuurders sal opgevoed moet word en sal tyd nodig hê om gewoond te raak aan die voorseinmetode.

In response to the evolution of rail transport,railway equipment and systems must be upgraded to improve their functionality and the efficiency of rail transportation. Railway signaling systems maintain and ensure transportation safety,and interlocking is the core of railway signaling systems. In this study,an operational procedure for the computerization of an interlocking system was established on the basis of transitioning from relay interlocking to electronic interlocking in a station operated by the Taiwan Railways Administration (TRA). Subsequently, the effects of the transition on the TRA’s train operations were investigated along with the safety and convenience of the maintenance procedures. The findings of this study may serve as a reference for the research and development of an interlocking system according to the TRA’s experience in enhancing system efficiency and safety. Additionally,further understanding of Taiwan’s domestic railway signaling system may attract talents for research and development related to integrating advanced technologies from around the world into Taiwan’s rail transportation system.

The objective of this thesis is to study the pitch detection methods of speech signals. Pitch is a very important feature in voiced speech and it is widely used in speech processing applications such as speech coding, speaker recognition, phonetics, and voice disease diagnostics. Although there are many pitch detection methods have been proposed, the accuracy and robustness against noise are needed to further improve. Recently, the wavelet transform has been widely applied to the pitch detection of speech signals, so the wavelet-based pitch detection method is our research direction. First, we simulate the Chen and Wang''s wavelet-based pitch detection method. We find that for some voiced speech if we detect the pitch from the negative portion of signal will be accurate than from the positive portion of signal. Besides, we simulate the method proposed by Shelby et al. It is the improved version of the first wavelet-based method proposed by Kadambe. In the thesis, the method modified from the Chen and Wang''s method is called method I, while the method improved from the Shelby''s method is called method II. In order to evaluate the accuracy and robustness against noise for the pitch detection methods, we add white Gauss noise to our test data in different signal-to-noise ratio and compare the error rate of pitch detection with the original works. From the experimental results, the error rates of the method I and method II are lower than Chen and Wang''s and Shelby''s methods, respectively. It verifies that our modifications for the original methods are beneficial for the accurate pitch detection of speech signals.

Data hiding, is a technique to embed data in a digital media to cover secret information. This paper will provide two data hiding methods which will embed secret information in a digital audio media. One will embed data in a audio file expressed in the time domain, it provides high embedding capacity. The other in the frequency domain, it can resist audio compression under adding the error control code in the secret information. These two methods utilize some characteristics of sound, for example, loud sound can mask out quiet sound. Experimental results also show the effectiveness of these two methods.

ABSTRACT Today, civil engineers still mainly use Fast Fourier transform to analyze the behavior of structures, but this method is only suitable for the structure vibration phenomenon of the linear and the stationary, so it produces to be stationary signals and speech to non-linear system, its analysis result has already lost the physics meaning represented of the signals. Furthermore, in carrying on the course of live load test of the bridge, it is unable to avoid the perturbation produced of the environment and various kinds of miscellaneous signals all around, so there will be mode mixing phenomenon in the vibration signals. This main purpose of research is to expect to be able to get rid of the mode mixing phenomenon effectively, therefore, it is main research try to with the Empirical Mode Decomposition(EMD) and Intermittence Criterion in this research, by means of decomposing function of special complex signals, attempt to purify the vibration signals of the bridge, make the signals cleaner and clearer. Adopt the live load test data of Shin Bin No.2 Bridge,Shing Nen Bridge and Metro Bridge the in the course, in EMD decomposition process adopt CE(Component from Extrema) and CEI(Component from Extrema with Intermittency Testing) two signal decomposition modes and don’t make signal decomposition mode to probe and compare,and change to different Intermittency Criterion limiting conditions in CEI mode at the same time, probe into the revise mode(n1-Δ) of Intermittency Criterion limiting value in the suitability that vibration signals purifies of the bridge, finally, using Hilbert-Huang Transform(HHT) to compare with results of different decomposition modes. According to the results of this study, the revise mode of Intermittency Criterion limiting value really is necessity to store, and is learnt analysis results of the signals of Shin Bin No.2 Bridge and, Shing Nen Bridge the purification results of CEI-15 is the best; from the Metro Bridge signals analysis of results, we can find, the purification results of CEI-30 mode is the best.

Pain is one of the most important feelings for humans self-protection, but I believe no one will like this unpleasant feeling. Serious or constant pain can have a negative effect on the body and mind. In this study, single-channel and EEG with dry electrodes was used to obtain brainwave signals, and map the result by FFT (Fast Fourier Transform). And use SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) to analyze and study the variation when the brainwaves with or without pain stimulus. The study results found, the pain stimulus will have an elevated effect on lower frequency bands and have a decreasing effect on higher frequency bands.

Electrical signals have emerged as a subject of recent interest in plant physiological research, and two major types of electrical signals, action potential and variation potential, have been identified in plants. Action potential (AP) is a fast electrical pulse that has well-defined properties. Variation potential (VP) is not well defined in many aspects such as waveform, amplitude, polarity, and conduction velocity, and its generation is subject to different mechanisms. Chemical and hydraulic mechanisms are two candidates in the literature and have been studied in wounded plants. In this study, two novel methods were designed to investigate the mechanism of variation potential, including a method for blocking electrical signal transmission and a method for measuring hydraulic variation. The former method used the proton pump (H+/K+ ATPase) inhibitor, NH4Cl, to block electrical signal transmission while the control inhibitor (water) cannot block the transmission. The hydraulic change was measured by the latter method for heat-wounding tomato plants. Results showed that heat wound evoked both hydraulic pulse and VP in tomato plants; the transmission of VP was blocked by the inhibitor (NH4Cl) while the hydraulic pulse was not, indicating that VP was not induced by hydraulic variation. In addition, the hydraulic pulse preceded VP following the heat wound. We conclude that the wound-induced VP is not generated due to hydraulic variation but chemical mechanism.

It is known that the result of electrophysiology experiment reveals more realistic and integrated information while animals under testing are awake treated and freely moving. For this reason, wireless recording is an inexorable trend. However, well-developed wireless techniques such as FM, Zigbee, Bluetooth, etc. impose different limitation on the recording of neuronal signals. This thesis is a pilot research of wireless recoding system based on the concept that high data rate is necessary for continuously multichannel recording of neuronal signals. There are a transmitter module and a receiver module in this system. Since the most critical issues of the front-end transmitter module are low power consumption and as small as possible, low power amplifiers, filters and a high data rate transmitter are implemented in this study. A receiver module is build specifically for the high data rate transmitter. It contains the analog demodulation circuit, digital demodulation and the acquisition of data via USB. To deal with the non-synchronization problem of carrier and timing between transmitter and receiver ends, digital demodulation is done by computer program. In addition, a software user interface is programmed with C++ language to control the receiver module. A single channel compound action potentials is used for examination of the developed system, and we transmits 100 kHz sampled data at 3 Mbps while consuming 12 mA in total. Compared to the wired measurement, reconstructed wave with wireless transmission are 98.86% similar. Notwithstanding, this preliminary study provides a basis for further multichannel recoding.

In order to meet the extreme requirement of data rate, researchers around the world have developed a lot of rate-increasing methods. Recently, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) has been regarded as one of the core rate-increasing technologies. By dividing the entire bandwidth into narrowband subcarriers, OFDM can provide high spectral efficiency. Also, the multipath effect can be easily equalized. Summarizing the above advantages, OFDM has become a key air interface for most modern wireless communication system. However, OFDM system suffers from several difficulties. One of the major drawbacks is the high peak to average power ratio(PAPR) at the transmitter. As signals operate on the nonlinearity of a high power amplifier(HPA), it is distorted and causes in-band distortion and out-of-band radiation. In our research, we propose three different PAPR reduction methods. First, a SLM method with CDMA side information is proposed. The difference between the conventional SLM method and the proposed one is that it provides another channel to transmit the side information, i.e., the index of phase sequence. Second, in order to improve the BER performance of traditional clipping scheme, we exploit some spreading codes to transmit the lost information caused by clipping. Third, a novel idea, in which OFDM waveform is shaped by an FIR filter or an all pass filter, is proposed. The numerical results show that by using the proposed methods, the PAPR of OFDM can be reduced, and the performance of OFDM is improved.

The term “direct” in the definition of public broadcasting right has its meaning indeed. In the case of “the behavior of using satellites to transmit program signal to cable system operators”, as each cable TV receives signal only from the signal receiving relay station, at this time, the “original broadcast” action has not been completed. The “original broadcast” will only be completed when the satellite transmits the program signal to the “viewers”. Hence, this view does have impact on the existing market structure in Taiwan. The actual impact is on how to collect fees from users. Nonetheless, if some supporting measures are used, the impact can be reduced. In regards to the signal transmission of public broadcasting, according to the current international conventions and practices operated in different countries, most of them include microwave (signal) to be protected by broadcasting act, or “deemed” to be protected by copyright law (the chapter of Electronic Rights Management Information and Technological Protection Measures). The work that is transmitted by microwave and protected by copyright law will be observed by copyright law as usual. For the work that is transmitted by satellite and is protected by copyright law, unauthorized use without consent at this time will infringe the public broadcasting right of the owners of the work.

The seismic signals generated by the landslide could be completely recorded by seismic stations. However, the coseismic landslide induced seismic signals significantly influenced by the ground motion generated by the earthquake, then causing analysis of coseismic landslide signals, including real-time seismic monitoring and determination of source location, to be challenged. Based on the seismic technique, our study would like to develop a flexible approach not only to study the non-cosiesmic landslide but also to probe the coseismic landslide event. Based on an assumption of the relationship between the horizontal seismograms and the landslide sliding direction, the amplitude tracking method (ATM) developed in this study can determine the sliding direction of landslide by using the ratio of peak amplitude in horizontal component A series of testing was conducted to verify the capability of ATM using synthetic waveforms for two landslide cases. Two landslide cases are the Xiaolin landslide occurred during the Typhoon Morakot and the Tsaoling coseismic landslide triggered by the Chichi earthquake. Furthermore, the ATM was modified to be ATM plus (ATM+), which can better understanding the coseismic landslide. Additioanl procedures such as the selection of signal window and seismic station were added in ATM+. In practical, the location of the landslide is usually an unknown parameter after landslide occurrence. Thus, the sliding direction determined by ATM+ could be used to map the possible landslide location by comparing with the aspect and slope angle of the geologically sensitive areas. This study demonstrated that ATM+ is a fluxble scheme and can facilitate the research topic related to landslide source process and development of disaster prevention and mitigation, especially for the coseismic landslde.

The environmental mismatches caused by background noise, acoustical variations among different speakers and channel distortion often seriously impair the performance of the state-of-the-art speech recognition systems. In this dissertation, we have proposed a family of novel noise robustness algorithms to remedy this problem, and the general line of this research is divided into three significant aspects. First, the temporal series of the complex-valued acoustic spectra are compensated via statistics normalization and factor analysis algorithms, including histogram equalization (HEQ) and nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF). Second, we apply HEQ to the modulation domain of the sub-band acoustic spectrum. The band-pass filters are exploited to divide the acoustic spectrogram into several sub-bands, and then temporal modulation spectra for each sub-band spectrogram are compensated via HEQ. By doing so, we can evaluate the relative importance of different sub-band spectrograms in speech recognition. Finally, we explore an HEQ-based feature normalization framework with sub-band division along the cepstral and/or temporal axes, which can not only normalize the overall histograms of feature vector components but also normalize their local contextual (or structural) statistics both spatially and temporally. All evaluation experiments are carried out on the Aurora-2 database and task, and are further validated on the Aurora-4 database and task. The experimental results suggest that our proposed methods can offer substantial improvements over the baseline system and achieve performance competitive to or better than some of the existing noise robustness methods, including the well-known advanced front-end (AFE) extraction scheme in speech recognition.

The adaptive approaches processing distinct remote signals from high resolution space imagery, underwater tones and dynamic motion of guided missile, respectively, are proposed in this dissertation. Regarding the first part, it is illustrated that Intensity–Hue–Saturation (IHS) technique, among various image fusion methods, represents the capability of quickly merging the massive volumes of data, and can yield satisfactory “spatial” enhancement but may introduce “spectral” distortion in IKONOS imagery. The approach of a fast IHS fusion technique with spectral adjustment is presented to solve this problem, and then demonstrates better performance than the original IHS method by the experimental results, both in processing speed and image quality. The aim of the second part is at studying underwater stationary acoustic signals and designing a feasible recognition system. In this proposed system, after the signal spectrum extracted, the wideband background noise removed, and the spectrum features detected by a peak selection algorithm ,then a noise subspace projection classifier with approximate maximum signal-to-interference ratio is designed as its recognition. The robustness of the proposed system has been shown in the results of experiments from real ship classes. With respect to the third part, if it is added the analyzing transient signals in the underwater acoustic signals, Fourier transform and wavelet transform are not satisfied for the requirements of analyzing time-vary underwater acoustic signals, for their basis functions are fixed. Therefore empirical mode decomposition, a useful analysis scheme for non-linear and non-stationary nature signals, is designed to extract the features from underwater acoustic signals for recognition by appropriate decomposed ordes. Through the experiments from diverse ship classes, the results demonstrate the robustness of the proposed method. In terms of the last part, the processes, hardware-in-the-loop simulation and flight (navigation) test, are essential for varied guided weapon systems in weapon system development. The study of this part adopts six-degree-of-freedom visualized simulation (6DOFVS) which has integrated of 6DOF and two visualized simulation approaches called Real Time Rendering (RTR) and Play Back Rendering (PBR) respectively to display the movement signals of missiles by multimedia, as the visualized display simulating these processes, facilitating analysis, diagnosis and verification of missile functions. Those two approaches supported each other and demonstrate well performance in this study by the instances of anti-air and underwater guided weapon systems.
