We design nonlinear functions for the transmission of a small signal with non-Gaussian noise and perform experiments to characterize their responses. Using statistical design theory [A. Ichiki and Y. Tadokoro, Phys. Rev. E 87, 012124 (2013)], a static nonlinear function is estimated from the probability density function of the given noise in order to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio of the ou...

background : noise pollution is one of the important issues of pollutant in workplaces and is almost one of the harmful agents for workers. at present, instrumental based inspections for determining the index levels of noise in workshops is performed. this method is requiring a time consuming and ex-pensive in large scale inspection for workplaces. classification of workplaces based on noise po...

noise is defined as unwanted or objectionable sound. human susceptibility to noise varies in terms of intensity, altitude, timbre of sound, personal sensibility, age, and history of ear disorder. noise pollution which is the result of heterogeneous and uncontrolled developments of cities is one the serious problems in large cities of iran. although noise pollution in kerman (located in southeas...

acoustic experimental data of irib (islamic republic of iran broadcasting) server room was taken to measure the acoustic noise characteristics of frequency and sound pressure level (spl). the purposes of this paper are measuring the noise pollution and its evaluation through the regulations. the measurements were taken in two stages. the first one was taken at 10 points by sound investigator 22...
