Abstract: Disclosed is a computing system which includes a storage device and a host. The storage device may include a nonvolatile memory, and the host may control the storage device based on a physical address of the nonvolatile memory and may send an asynchronous event request command to the storage device. The storage device may monitor the nonvolatile memory and may send an asynchronous event request corresponding to the asynchronous event request command to the host based on the monitoring result. The asynchronous event request may include requesting another command from the host based on the monitoring result. In some aspects, the host may send an erase command for erasing to erase a selected memory block of the nonvolatile memory to the storage device. In response, the storage device may send an erase pass response or an erase delay violation response to the host in response to the erase command.

Abstract: A method of improving sound quality of an ultrasonic speaker device includes: a first operation of removing a low frequency component of an input audio signal by using a high pass filter; a second operation of correcting a response characteristic of a signal obtained by removing the low frequency component, for each frequency band by using an equalizer; a third operation of adjusting a sound pressure level of a signal obtained by correcting the response characteristic for each frequency band; and a fourth operation of controlling a signal magnitude not to increase above a particular level by using a limiter, in order to prevent a signal clipping that may occur in the second operation and the third operation. An audio signal of improved sound quality may be transmitted to a listener by applying a sound quality improving method suitable for the characteristics of a super-directional ultrasonic speaker.
