Almost all the traditional median filters concern the removal of impulse noise having a single layer, whose noise gray level value is constant. In this paper, a new adaptive median filter is proposed to handle those images corrupted not only by single layer noise. The adaptive threshold median filter （ATMF） has been developed by combining the adaptive median filter （AMF） and two dynamic thresholds. Because of the dynamic threshold being used, the ATMF is able to balance the removal of the multiple-impulse noise and the quality of image. Comparison of the proposed method with traditional median filters is provided. Some visual examples are given to demonstrate the performance of the proposed filter.展开更多

The Q and S waves can then be accurately positioned based on the basic characteristics of QRS waves. Finally, the algorithm simulation is made based on the signals from MIT-BIH database with MATLAB. The ex- perimental results show that the algorithm can improve the detection accuracy rate to 99. 91% and o- vercome the problem of larger computation load for wavelet transform and other methods, so the al- gorithm is suitable for real-time detection.展开更多

Our analysis shows that the bit error rate （BER） performance of iTRPC-UWB systems can be significantly improved via integration interval determination （IID） and decision threshold optimization. For this purpose, two modifications can be made at the autocorrelation receiver as follows. Firstly, the liD processing is performed for autocorrelation operation to capture multi-path energy as much as possible. Secondly, adaptive decision threshold （ADT） instead of zero decision threshold （ZDT）, is used as estimated optimal decision threshold for symbol detection. Performance of iTRPCUWB systems using liD and ADT was evaluated in realistic IEEE 802.15.4a UWB channel models and the simulation results demonstrated our theoretical analysis.展开更多
