We propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel blind frequency offset estimator for coherent quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) receivers. Its frequency offset estimation range is more than three times the conventional estimation range.
In Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), multiple pilot subcarriers are dispersed for propagation channel estimation. Our study suggests a method to reduce the number of pilot subcarriers to 1/15 while maintaining fading tolerance. This can be realized by estimating the propagation channel parameters with combined implementation of sequential feedback estimation for the time direction...
In this paper, we propose a statistical scheme for recognizing three-dimensional textures shown in motion images, which we call dynamic textures. The texture characteristics emerges in the distinct movement in the motion images, and the dynamic cues would be useful especially for recognizing ambiguous texture patterns in noisy images. We apply cubic higher-order auto-correlation (CHLAC) to extract...
This paper proposes a technique for emotional speech recognition which enables us to extract paralinguistic information as well as linguistic information contained in speech signal. The technique is based on style estimation and style adaptation using multiple-regression HMM. Recognition process consists of two stages. In the first stage, a style vector that represents the emotional expression category...
We have developed new dimensionality reduction methods, extended from locality preserving projection (LPP), to estimate age using facial images. LPP seeks a linear transformation matrix such that optimally preserves the neighborhood structure of the data. Our focus has been on expanding LPP by making use of class label information. Specifically, one of our ideas is to assign weights only to the data...
This paper presents an ultra-wideband (UWB) double-directional channel sounding technique using transformation between time domain (TD) and frequency domain (FD) signals. We proposed the time-of-arrival (TOA), angle-of- arrival (AOA) estimation algorithm and angle-of-departure (AOD) with some modifications of our previous work. There were four main advantages of the proposed estimation technique as...
