The Impulse Response The sequence {ψj} of the filter’s coefficients constitutes its response, on the output side, to an input in the form of a unit impulse. If the sequence is finite, then ψ(z) is described as a moving-average filter or as a finite impulse-response (FIR) filter. When the filter produces an impulse response of an indefinite duration, it is called an infinite impulse-response (II...

A method for reducing interblock interference (IBI) in an impulse response Signal transmitted by a communications channel such as a digital subscriber loop (DSL) channel. The method includes computing a time of reference (TOR) based on a windowing function that assumes that the main lobe Segment of the impulse response Signal does not contribute IBI power and that the tail Segments of the impul...

This paper studies the effects of psychological, individual, product strategy, and situational factors on the impulse purchase behavior of customers in all Refah stores located in Tehran. The paper uses Betty and Ferrell Model to set forward and to test 4 hypothesis. All four hypothesis were confirmed. The results indicated that the selected factors had impact on the impulse behavior of the con...

objective: self-harm was classified to show forms like non-suicidal self injury and indirect risky behaviors and drug abuse. the aims of this study were to compare suicidal tendencies indexes and difficulty in emotion regulation skills in mixed groups of adolescents with direct and indirect forms of self-harm. methods: in a casual-comparative design from population of delinquent adolescents det...

The project is aimed at comparing performance of filters for pulse noise removal in images. 22 filters ([1-18]) were implemented on a Matlab platform and tested in terms of: False alarms errors Missing errors Estimation errors due to false alarms and missing Visual quality The comparison results are presented in form of tables in which the filters are sorted in descending order of the quality. ...

This paper presents a robust blind channel equalization technique in impulse noise environments. To suppress impulse noise effectively, the combination of order statistics (OS) and adaptive thresholding is considered. We implement nonlinear adaptation with the OS operation based on the Sato error criterion. The adaptive threshold is calculated using the variance of the input signal. Computer si...

Databases of head related impulse responses (HRIRs) for binaural synthesis can be measured either in anechoic or reflective environments. The time until energy decays to negligible values after impulsive excitation ranges from some milliseconds under anechoic conditions to some seconds in reflective environments. The computational load for dynamic binaural synthesis increases significantly with...

The performance of an image filtering system depends on its ability to detect the presence of noisy pixels in the image. Most of the impulse detection schemes assume the presence of salt and pepper noise in the images and do not work satisfactorily in case of uniformly distributed impulse noise. In this paper, a new algorithm is presented to improve the performance of switching median filter in...
