    Summary: Development in transducer technology yields various implamentation of PZM microphones. Since PZM characteristics are not defined only with transducer itself, it is of great interest to explore influence of other elements. Numerical solutions are derived using a model based on the geometric theory of sound spreading, to simulate frequency and polar responces, taking size and shape of boundary surface, as well as position and distance of transducer as input parameters. Varying input parameters it is possible to see their influence on final characteristics. From the model it is shown that a smoother responses result, provided that microphone is unsymmetrically placed and irregulary shaped surfaces are used.

    Summary: Correct locating of sound source depends on coefficient of interaural cross correlation (CIACC). It is not possible to locate sound source if the coefficient of IACC is smaller then a certain amount. The examination has been carried out concerning the correctness of locating in dependence of CIACC in distinctly diffuse sound fields of real room, in which diffuse field lasts relativly long. The change on the basis of the results of examination shows that the sound source will be correctly located if the minimal CIACC come at least to 0,240.

    Summary: Measurements on hydroacoustic transducers in the water are verycomplicated. The special measuring equipment is required, as wellas the special measuring environment (i.e. anechoic pool).Mechanical construction is supposed to be completely finished,too. Therefore, it is usefull to make some measuring in the air,before measuring in the water. So we can conclude if theconstruction of transducer is correct, and does it satisfyexpected basic requirements.

    Summary: Speech intelligibility depends on bandwidth of transferchannel, but also for way of listening if it is listeningmonotic, dioric or dichotic (or binaural). If it is tried through telephone channel to transmitt a binaural speech information, itis needed to limit considerably the spectrum. By use of logatomand bigger number of examinees it is established how the minimalwidth of transfer band for speech information has to be for satisfied intelligibility. It is established that bandwidth of1,1 kHz is enough for monotic speech transmission.

It is notpossible to locate sound source if the coefficient of IACC is smaller then a certain amount. The examination has been carriedout concerning the correctness of locating in dependence of CIACCin distinctly diffuse sound fields of real room, in which diffusefield lasts relativly long. The change on the basis of theresults of examination shows that the sound source will becorrectly located if the minimal CIACC come at least to 0,240.

    Summary: In this paper authors present how was The Republic of Croatia despite war time, because of getting out from communism system, succeed to overcame "information darkness" by building out an multijoint broadcasting system called "joint vessel" model. The basis for implementation of DAB is described, too. After that war damages to broadcasting system were described, and work on new communication system based on modern wired society technology were explained. Connected with this, authors were presented comp- rising of Croatia in DAB through projects TEL and ADRIA 1, and new national telecommunication system. Since DAB is part of process that includes modernization and transformation of public information system to new public communication system of world innovations, authors have connected technical components with social elements, and in their synthesis they see maximal realisation of new civil telecommunication system in modern electronic democracy, wired society, co operating society that not depends on arguments of power (where the citizens are objects), but on power of arguments (where the citizens are subjects). On the example of one small, recently liberate country, authors have shown how it is possible using own effort and international support to comprise in historic events and overcome communist past.

There hasbeen no good correlation so far between objective and subjectivestationary and dynamic testing methods. Aiming to achieve abetter correlation, an audio test signal (ATS) generator has beendesigned. The ATS spectrum is constant and repeatable and theamplitude rise time and distribution correspond to music andspeech. The test results show a good correlation betweenobjective measurements using ATS and subjective assessment ofreproduced music and speech.

    Summary: Loudspeakers are usually loads to audio amplčifiers, but they donot perform only resistive but also reactive components withinductive and capacitive character. Data about these complexloads are very important in amplifier design, but they are notalways attainable. With loudspeaker impedance there is a need toconsider also impedance of connecting cables, which can havecertain influence on transmission characteristics. In this workis conducted an analyse of loudspeaker loads with recommendationsfor their impedance linearization, and they are experimantallywith measurements (on a great number of examples) determinateaverage data obout this complex loading.

    Summary: Reduction of noise with passive methods come today to upper border of their possibilities. At the some time, these methods have some drawbacks, which can not be overcome (problem on low frequencies, often high prices, etc.). Therefore in last years active methods come in use, they are specialy efficient just on low frequencies, with small volumes and with periodical events. In this work are explained some fundamental physical techics of noise reduction with active method, like a complementary method of passive measures for protection. There are analysed some applications of noise elimination at speech communications of ECG signals, automobile noises and noises of energetic transformers.

    Summary: In dependance of material, its structure and shape of reflective surface, is changing, except of amplitude, a spectrum of reflection to. These changes considerably influence on listener experiance, so it is necessery to establish in which measure come to spectral and amplitude changes of reflection in different conditions. It is possibly to measure with omnidirectional microphone with help of TDS-method, but such measure don't respond to real conditions. Therefore the measures are carried out with help of artificial head ( also with TDS-method). With its directional and frequency characteristics and influences on sound field real conditions are approximately attained. The differences between both ways of measuring and changes of frequency characteristic in different conditions are shown.

    Title: The Measurement and Estimation of Objective and Subjective Quality of Audio Systems and Equipment
    Faculty: Elektrotehnički fakultet Zagreb
    Date of defense: 10/26/92
    Language: hrvatski
    Number of pages: 164
    Summary: Die wesentliche Information, die Sprach oder Musiksignal beschreibt, befindet sich in den Transienten. Die Transienten sind schnelle, peak-asymetrische Signale, bei denen die Gleichspannungskomponiente fehlt. Die Funktion der Wahrscheinlichkeitsdichte der Amplitude eines Sprach oder Musiksignal ist die bekannte Gauss-Kurve. Die normierte Schnelle der Anderung eines Sprach oder Musiksignals uberschreitet den Spitzenwert von 100 mV/us/V nicht. Aufgrund von diesen Parametren und bekannten Mesmeethoden, die zum Messen von verschiedenen Verzerrungen vorgeschen sind, aber auch bestimmte Mangel aufweisen, wurde ein Generator von besonders zusammen- gesetztem Audio Test Signal (ZATS=SATS) konstruiret. Dadurch wurde eine neue Mesmethode zum Messen von nichtlinearen stationaren und dynamischen Verzerrungen vorgeschlagen. ZATS wird durch das Mischen von drei gegeneinander unabhangigen verwickelten Zagezahn-Signalen (VZZS=SPS) zusammengesetzt. VZZS ist eigentlich eine Reihevon "Zahnen" die alle gleiche Amplituden haben, aber von der veranderlichen Dauer sind. Das wiederholbare Element von VZZS ist eine Sequenz von 63 Zahne. Die Wiederholungsfrequenz dieser Grundsequenz bestimmt die Grundfrequenz des VZZS - Spektrums. Das zusammengesetzte Audio-Test Signal (ZATS) ist, durch seine peak und Halbwellenaszmetrie, sowie asymetrischer Distribution der Veranderungsschnelle, sehr empfindlich gleichzeitig gegenuber alle stationare und dynamische nichtlineare Verzerrungen. Die Dichte der Wahrscheinlichkeistfunktion der zeitlichen Distribution ist sehr ahnilich der die fur Sprache bzw. Musik gilt. Die Verzerrungen konnen sowohl in der Zeit als auch in der Frequenzdomane gemessen werden. Als Mas fur die stationare und dynamische Verzerrungen kann man die algebraische Differenze von den Eingengs und Ausgangssignals verweden. Je grosser die algebraische Differenz von beiden Funktionen ist, desto grosser ist auch die algebraische Differenze von der Flachen unter beiden Funktionen, so das auch der Mittelwert der Funktionendifferenz grosser ist. Das beduetet das die stationare und dynamische nichtlineare Verzerrungen eine groser Gleichspannungskomponente generierte haben. Das Polaritate der Gleichspannungskomponente (GK) gangt der Ibertragungskurve und des Polaritats des Aussteuerungssignals ab. Das ZATS - Spektrum und die normierte Veranderungsschnelle kann man nach Belieben wahlen und dadurch die Mesempfindlichkeit von Nichtlinearitaten steigern. Durch die grose Ahnlichkeit von ZATS und Sprache bzw. Musik die gemessenen Verzerrungen korrelieren gut mit dem subjektivem Gefuhl.

    Summary: Es wurde nachgewiesen deá auch sehr fruhe Ruckwurfe einen gewissen Einfluá nicht nur auf die subjektive Schallquellenausdehnung und Timbre, sondern auch auf die Lokalisationsscharfe, haben. Ebenfalls wurden Zusammenhange zwischen dem Raumgefuhl und Lokalisationseffekten nachgewiesen. Durch eine binaurale Meámethode hat man den minimalen Koeffizient der interauralen Kreuzkorrelation (MIKIAKK), bei dem eine Reflexion gerade lokalisierbar wird, gemessen. Mit der selben Methode hat man auch den maximalen Koeffizient (MAKIAKK), bei dem eine Reflexion gerade nicht mehr lokalisierbar ist, gemessen. Anhand von MIKIAKK und MIKIAKK wurde der Wertder IAKK fur das subjektive diffuse Schallfeld ermittelt. Eine Kopfnachbildung (mit zwei PZM Mikrofonen), die auch fur die Stereo-Wiedergabe uber Lautsprecher geeignet ist, wurde vorgeschlang und gepruft.

    Summary: The results of analiytical, numerical and experimental investigation of microwave varactor tuned oscillators are presented. A theory for analysing negative-resistance oscillators is described. Varactor package analysis has shown that in wide- band tuned oscillators varactor must be driven in a resonant mode. Power suck-cut is explained for parallel andseries oscillators as varactor resonant power absorption. Criteria for avoiding power suck-out defined. A qualitative comparison of Gunn and Impatt diodes for wide-band tunad oscillator applications shows the adventage of Gunn diodes. From consideration Gunn diode package, the neccesarz condition for tuning Gunn diode oscillators is derived. teh measurement of Gunn diode impedance is performed. Reactance compensation and coupling of varactor and Gunn diode are described as a besic technique for designing electronically tuned oscillators. A possibelity for adopting reactance compensation in a series waveguide oscillator is described. Finally, design rules for electronically tuned oscillators are derived. The results of numerical and analytical design of a series waveguide oscillator are confirmed in experimental setup. Wide-band tuning (12,3%) in X-band full-height waveguide oscillator is achieved.

    Summary: In Ch. 1 the main characteristics of sound sources, their location onboaard ships and paths of sound propagation from the sources to the surrounding fluid are briefly describd. The diesel engine is considered to be main source of noise. Concerning the paths of propagation, machinery noise can be classified into structure-borne and airborne noise. Since the structure-borne noise usually dominates, in Ch. 2 mechanisms of sound generation and propagation through the elements of ship structure-beams and plates are discussed. The analysis is focused on bending waves since they are of greatets signifcance in the process of soun radiation. More attention has been paid to the plates because they are more efficient radiators of sound than beams. The main differences in frequency responses of finite and infinite plates are described, too. In Ch. 3 the influence of the surrounding fluid on a vibrating strucrure is presented. There are two main effects: fluid loading (reactive load) and radiation of sound (resistive load). These effects are explained by two exaples-finite and infinite plates. The main quantities describing radiation, e.g. radiation coefficient "o", are given, too. Chapter 4 is direct continuation of the previous one and they both are the core of the thesis. The calculation procedure of the radiation coefficient, used later on, is described. An example of calculated and measured results of radioated sound is given illustrating the fact that a well-establisehed model,irrespective of how simple it is, can give fairly good results useful in future work. In Ch. 5 the above-described procedure is applied on a small fishing vessel. The part of the of the vessel s hull responsible for the sound radiation in the fluid is, from accoustical point of view, approximated by flat ribbed plate. Because of the complexity of building material (sandwich panel) there was need for certain approximation. Using same measured results (impulse response of the hull) as input data, the frequency band within which a sandwich plate behaves like homogeneous one is determined. Comparting the calculated and measured results of sound pressure in the surrounding fluid it is possible to see that this approximation fits well into the complete model. The chapter closes with the comparison of calculated sound presure in the surrounding fluid for a GRP (glass reinforced plastic) and a steel vessel. It is assumend that the vessels are completly equal with the same vibration velocity level at fluid-hull boundary. The steel hull appered to be a more effecient radiator of sound. The last chapter presents a detailed description of the measured object and the measurement itself. The measured and calculated results of sound pressure in the surrounding fluid for three more regimes of the main diesel engine are given. The measured velocity levels on the hull below the main engine and in the immediate vicinity of it are used as input date for the calculation. They have a direct influence on the precision of the obtained results. Due to complexity of the building material, the input impedance of the hull was measured in order to pllroximate a sandwich panel with a homogeneous flat plate of proper thickness.The verification of the model is done using the measured sound pressure levels in the surrounding fluid which were taken simultaneously with the vibration velcity levels on the hull. At the end of the chapter the mean absolute errors for different regimes are given in order to make possible final judgement of the entire model.

Standard hydrophones are calibrated and maintained locally, by means of one of absolute methods, by measurement of electrical and mechanical quantitiee and (frequency), which are traceable to national standards of those quantities. The standard hydrophone basical characteristics is the frequency dependence of the sensitivity, which is to be determined by calibration. The reciprocity principle gives besis for the hydrophone calibration in the whole freguency range of interest. The three transducer method is used for frequencies up to 2 MHz. For higher frequencies modifications (e.g. selfreciprocity) are needed because of the more precise spatial hydrophone positioning. An analysis of existing calibration procedures has shown that the TDS, combined with a precise postioning system should be the underwater sound standard basis frequencies up to 10 MHz. It has been experimentally verified that the methods and procedures taken into concern here could be used for calibration of a high-quality in the, at the time acchieved, but theoretically also wider, frequency range,with the accouracy comparable to those acchived in other laboratories in the world.

    Number of pages: 110
    Summary: The three well known and nowadays the most employed for the ultrasonic transducers design have been studied: Mason s, KLM and lattice model. The aim of the work ie the construction and the optimization of the 2MHz wideband ultrasonic transducer for medical diagnostics application, eas achieved by using the ID KLM model computer simulation. In such a way the acoustical to water, absorptive backing and electrical matching to generator was performed so as to achieve minimum insertion loss and maximum bandwidth assuring high detection signal good spatial resolution. The four theoretical approches whit the basic mathematical methods for the calculating of the pressure field radiated by a planar source vibrating in an infinite regid baffle have been considered and the convolution method has been used for detailed sound field analysisfor several idealized types of transducers, as well. In order to calculate the piezoelectric disk deformation and therefore to predict the realistic sound field shape, the 2D finite element method computer simulation has been applied. Additionally, the influence of partial electrodes on the radiation surface deformation and the sound field shape has been studied, too. The two types of 2.7MHz broadband ultrasonic transducers with fullyand partially electroded piezoceramic disks, respectively, have been manufactured ensuring the two different sound field types. The experimental results for the sound field shapes, the acoustical impulse shapes and the elektrical impedances match well with theoretical predictions. The achived efficiency was about 34%, round trip insertion loss 25dB and 35.4dB, respectively, and the mechanical quality factor 4 and 5.7, respectively.

    Summary: The possibilites of reliable date transmission through the sea are investigated. On the basis of the general communication system model, an underwater communication system is analysed. The analysis of the sea water as the information channel is emphasized. The phenomena ofsound propagation in the sea water are described and examined, and the main restrictions on the reliable date transmission are identified, namely, multipath and fading. The statistical characterization of the hydroacoustic information channel is also given. On the basis of the channel characterization, the problem of the signal desing for the use in such a channel is introduced. The signal and its detection in an ideal and multipath environment are investigated. The possibilities of improving the date transmission reliablity by proper error correcting coding are briefly discussed. Instead of conclusion, the mesures and techniques for obtaining a reliable acoustic underwater link are proposed.
