Abstract: In seismic data processing, attenuation of random noise
is the basic step to improve quality of data for further application
of seismic data in exploration and development in different gas
and oil industries. The signal-to-noise ratio of the data also highly
determines quality of seismic data. This factor affects the reliability
as well as the accuracy of seismic signal during interpretation
for different purposes in different companies. To use seismic data
for further application and interpretation, we need to improve the
signal-to-noise ration while attenuating random noise effectively.
To improve the signal-to-noise ration and attenuating seismic
random noise by preserving important features and information
about seismic signals, we introduce the concept of anisotropic
total fractional order denoising algorithm. The anisotropic total
fractional order variation model defined in fractional order bounded
variation is proposed as a regularization in seismic denoising. The
split Bregman algorithm is employed to solve the minimization
problem of the anisotropic total fractional order variation model
and the corresponding denoising algorithm for the proposed method
is derived. We test the effectiveness of theproposed method for
synthetic and real seismic data sets and the denoised result is
compared with F-X deconvolution and non-local means denoising
algorithm.
Abstract: In this study, noise characteristics of structure were analyzed in an effort to reduce noise passing through an opening of an
enclosure surrounding the structure that generates noise. Enclosures
are essential measure to protect noise propagation from operating machinery. Access openings of the enclosures are important path of noise leakage. First, noise characteristics of structure were analyzed
and feed-forward noise control was performed using simulation in
order to reduce noise passing through the opening of enclosure, which
surrounds a structure generating noise. We then implemented a
feed-forward controller to actively control the acoustic power through
the opening. Finally, we conducted optimization of placement of the
reference sensors for several cases of the number of sensors. Good
control performances were achieved using the minimum number of microphones arranged an optimal placement.
Abstract: The present paper deals with the analysis and development of noise-reduction transformer that has a filter function for conductive noise transmission. Two types of prototype noise-reduction transformers with two different output voltages are proposed. To determine an optimum design for the noise-reduction transformer, noise attenuation characteristics are discussed based on the experiments and the equivalent circuit analysis. The analysis gives a relation between the circuit parameters and the noise attenuation. High performance step-down noise-reduction transformer for direct power supply to electronics equipment is developed. The input voltage of the transformer is 100 V and the output voltage is 5 V. Frequency characteristics of noise attenuation are discussed, and prevention of pulse noise transmission is demonstrated. Normal mode noise attenuation of this transformer is –80 dB, and common mode exceeds –90 dB. The step-down noise-reduction transformer eliminates pulse noise efficiently.
